Vision problems can restrict a child’s ability to play and learn. Many vision problems are undetectable by parents, caregivers and educators. Often children cannot even describe exactly what is bothering them. Our eye doctors are specially trained to interpret and treat mild to severe eye conditions even while keeping your children safe during COVID.
Before you know everything about something, you know nothing. Become an expert in whatever you desire and you will get there with hard work and dedication - make today count!
With safety in this new world a top priority, we remain available to address all of your eyecare needs following our new safety protocols!

They are currently asking patients to wait in their cars until they are called to the side door where their temperature is taken. Once admitted, you are taken right into an exam room. There is no interaction with other patients during your visit. I felt very safe throughout the duration of my visit. Upon leaving, you are asked to exit through the front door which is kept locked to prevent anyone from entering the wrong way. Lafayette Eye Associates is taking all of the necessary precautions to ensure a safe visit. Staff is courteous, knowledgeable, and respectful.
MADE (mask associated dry eye) is becoming increasingly problematic for many in the new COVID times. Call to schedule an appointment to ensure your eyes are healthy but in the meantime here are a few things you can try to mitigate MADE symptoms!
· Ensure the mask fits tightly on the top of the nose, particularly while wearing spectacles
· Tape the top edge of the mask to the face for periods of longer wear. Note patients should be careful that the tape does not interfere with natural blinking and that no dermatitis results from the tape adhesive
· Limit time in environments with dry eye (air conditioning in summer, heated areas in winter)
· Take regular breaks from digital devices
· Shift phones to night mode with reduced blue light
Eyes hurting at the end of the day? Spending too much time behind your computer or phone? We can help. Schedule an exam and perhaps the doctor thinks you will benefit from one of many lens options available here including the newest single vision innovation Eyezen or a progressive specifically for computer work to fight against digital eyestrain, visual fatigue, and protection from harmful blue light!
Suffering from some of these dry eye symptoms? Come see one of our doctors who can help you determine the best course for relief.

Say something encouraging and positive to yourself today to get the week started right!
Did you know infants undergo a significant amount of development - especially in their eyes and brains? As 1 in 5 preschoolers struggle with vision problems, it is important to have your baby's eyes checked before they reach 12 months to ensure their vision is developing properly, and to help prevent further vision and learning problems. We provide no-cost eye and vision assessments for infants between the ages of 6-12 months. Make your appointment today 👶🙏
Smiles and positive energy are contagious - spread happiness to start this week off right and always😀
Finish the second half of the week strong and keep pushing forward towards achieving all of your goals. You will make it happen!

Roughly 90% of vision loss from diabetes can be prevented according to the CDC and early detection is key. People with diabetes should get critical, annual eye exams even before they have signs of vision loss.
Diabetic eye disease includes diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema,
cataract, and glaucoma.
Don't forget to flex! Use your flex spending benefits for your eye exam, daily contact lenses, glasses and sunglasses when you visit us before January 1 when many plans reset. Call or text us to request your appointment.

In this ever increasingly digital world, it’s inevitable that we are spending more and more time on digital devices and so are our kids. We use them at home, in school, in the car, etc. Research shows that the blue-light from digital devices can lead to a host of problems including sleep and eye problems, like eye strain and redness. In addition, there are currently studies being conducted to link blue light and irreversible retinal damage. Talk to our eye doctors and our optical team to ensure you protect your eyes and the eyes of those you love.
Today and every day we thank you and appreciate you for your service!
Children (and adults) often don't realize their vision has changed. Schedule your comprehensive eye exam to see if you would benefit from new glasses or contacts. Perhaps improved vision will help to explain a lot for you and your loved ones!
Eyewear is not just a necessity, it is also an accessory! Your eyeglasses can say a lot about your personal style. We have some new Tom Fords now in our optical boutique that are calling your name!
Proper development of vision as a primary sense, from birth through the school years, is critical to a child’s future success in school and life. We can measure visual function well before a child’s first birthday. The American Optometric and American Ophthalmic Associations recommend the first comprehensive eye exam at 6 months. Our office is equipped with special equipment, eye charts and even developmental assessments to thoroughly examine the visual readiness of your child’s eyes for each step of his or her early years through college and beyond.
Your glasses = your vibe
Have a happy Friday and enjoy the Thanksgiving weekend!

HAND SANITIZER SAFETY FOR KIDS
The use of hand sanitizer is an important component in preventing infection with the COVID-19 virus, but like everything else in life, it has its drawbacks. When used improperly, hand sanitizers can damage the eyes.
Many hand sanitizers, the report noted, have a high concentration of ethanol, which can kill corneal cells. The investigators reported their findings in JAMA Ophthalmology.
The doctors offered some practical advice to parents that included emphasizing hand washing with soap and water instead of hand sanitizer and training children in the appropriate use of hand sanitizers.
The authors concluded that “despite the importance of alcohol-based hand sanitizers for controlling the spread of coronavirus disease, these agents should be used with caution and likely kept away from young children.”
