As childhood myopia becomes increasingly common, parents are searching for reliable solutions that not only correct vision but also help slow its progression. One of the most promising advancements in this field is the Stellest™ lens by Essilor, now available at Poplar Spectacles Optometry in Alamo, CA.

Dry eye disease occurs when your eyes don’t produce enough tears, or when the tears you do produce evaporate too quickly. Tears are essential for keeping the eyes lubricated, nourished, and comfortable. Without proper lubrication, your eyes can become irritated, red, and even more vulnerable to damage or infection over time.

When it comes to maintaining healthy vision, most people know the importance of getting regular eye exams. However, if you wear or are interested in wearing contact lenses, you’ll need more than just a routine eye exam. A contact lens exam involves specialized testing and fittings that go beyond checking your prescription and overall eye health.

Regular eye exams not only keep your vision sharp but can also reveal early signs of serious eye conditions and even systemic health issues. At Poplar Spectacles Optometry, we believe routine eye care is essential for every stage of life. Understanding what a comprehensive eye exam includes and how often to schedule one can make all the difference in protecting your long-term vision and well-being.
