Happy National Sunglasses Day! 😎 ☀️To get maximum protection against the sun’s harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, do you know what to look for when purchasing your sunglasses?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here is what you need to know to make the most out of your new 🕶
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Must block 100% UVA and UVB- read your labels!
2. Select a style that compliments your face shape
2. Bigger is better- more coverage means less sun damage to the eyes and the skin around the eyes (skin cancer)
3. Choose a lens color based on your lifestyle needs: sports, work, outdoor recreation, fashion, etc
4. Polarization reduces glare coming off of reflective surfaces such as water or pavement.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Come check out our newest 🕶. Book your glasses consultation and have our Opticians help select the right pair for you! When you buy a pair of glasses (frames + lenses), get the next set of lenses for 40% off!

It's Myopia Awareness Week. For many children, during their school years is when they develop nearsightedness or Myopia which causes difficulty with seeing distant objects clearly. An increasingly popular method of myopia management is with specialty contact lenses.
As an Optometrist, it's very rewarding to be able to help a child to improve their vision so that they can see well to do their best not only in school but in all aspects of their lives. But having good vision and eye health is about more than being able to read the small line on the eye chart
Did you know that there is a particular type of contact lens called Ortho-K lenses that are approved for overnight wear? These lenses gently re-shape the front surface of the eye while the child is sleeping so that in the morning they can remove the lens and during the day they can see clearly without any correction. Ortho-K lenses have been shown to be an effective method of slowing down the progression of myopia while also having the benefit of providing freedom from glasses and contacts during the day. This is especially beneficial for those who enjoy an active lifestyle or play high-level sports. Even adults, athletes or those who are not ready for or are not candidates for laser eye surgery can benefit greatly from this type of contact lens therapy. Ortho-K lenses have a good safety profile and is reversible. So if you are looking for freedom from glasses or are Interested in myopia control please reach out to us for a myopia consultation to discuss if you or a loved one may be a good candidate for Ortho-K lenses. #orthok #myopiamanagement

Did you hear we are having a SUN sale this month? Save 20% off sunglasses and 10% off our @alumiermdcanada sunscreen this month.
As Optometrists, we recommend everyone wear their shades when outdoors. Did you know you should be wearing sunglasses all year around to protect your eyes from the cumulative effects of the harsh ultraviolet (UV) rays. We encourage parents to start having your kids wear their sunglasses during infancy & continue all year round. Kids do have a tendency to take them off, but it's all about building a habit. Simply wearing a hat is not enough.
UV rays can accelerate conditions like cataracts (clouding of the natural lens in the eye) and Age-regulated Macular Degeneration (AMD) which can lead to permanent vision loss.
What to look for when purchasing your families sunglasses:
1. Must block 100% UVA & UVB - read your labels!
2. Select a frame that fits comfortably.
3. Larger lenses provide more coverage reducing sun damage to the eyes & the skin around the eyes (skin cancer).
3. Transition lenses are ideal if your child wears glasses as these lenses change color based on the level of UV.
4. Polarization reduces glare coming off reflective surfaces like water or pavement.
It's also important to remember to protect our skin all year round with sunscreen. Our Alumier Sheer Hydration Broad Spectrum SPF 40 mineral sunscreen provides powerful broad-spectrum protection against harmful UVA and UVB rays. It uses a combination of zinc oxide and titanium dioxide while moisturizing with vitamin E. This formula is also packed with free-radical-quenching antioxidants, including a stable vitamin C, resveratrol, grape seed extract, and glutathione. The versatile tint blends beautifully on the skin,creating a sheer healthy glow. This sunscreen is of dye, paraben, sulfate, phthalate, artificial fragrance, chemical sunscreen filter, and animal cruelty.
Stop by our location, and our optical team will be able to help you with your sun essentials. We are open on Saturday, April 9, 2022, from 9 am - 3 pm for your convenience. #sunsale sale

We enjoyed learning with @mirandainmaui from @officialmauijim. Maui Jim sunglasses 👓 are our favorite sunglasses because they will change the way you see the world; vivid colors, improved clarity, and crisp details—all while blocking glare and harmful UV.
Their PolarizedPlus2® lenses block 100% of all harmful UV rays, protecting your eyes from damage and long-term health risks such as cataracts and age related macular degeneration. Sunglasses that do not provide UV protection can actually cause more damage because they shade the eye, allowing for more UV rays to hit the pupil.
These lenses eliminate 99.9% of glare, allowing you to see the world at its brilliant best. They enhance the colors your eyes naturally perceive. So, you see vibrant, saturated colors with a higher level of contrast and greater depth perception.
They are the only sunglass to have earned the Skin Cancer Foundation Seal of Recommendation as an effective UV filter for the eyes and surrounding skin.
They offer various lens color options: neutral Grey, HCL Bronze, Maui Rose, and Maui HT suited to multiple environments, lighting conditions, and activities.
Sunglasses should be worn all year round, especially on reflected surfaces such as water and snow. Stop by our office to check out our latest styles and try them out. #mauijim
Happy World Optometry Day! Today we celebrate our profession as Optometrists. We are humbled to be able to help our patients see better and improve their quality of life through vision and eye health.
So how do you become an Optometrist? After completing an undergraduate degree, we go to Optometry school for an additional 4 years + residency (optional). That's a lot of eye school that allows us to not only prescribe glasses and contact lenses but we also diagnose, manage and treat eye diseases such as glaucoma, cataracts, dry eye disease, eye infections, eye allergies, trauma, macular degeneration, eye emergencies to name a few.
As Optometrists, we are passionate about eye health & educating you using our social media platforms & during your appointments. We believe in early detection & prevention to maintaining optimal eye health starting in infancy. If you haven't had an eye exam this year, this is a great opportunity to book your appointment today.
So today let's be grateful for our gift of sight. #worldoptometryday

Plus help a child see with each @modoeyewear frame purchased at our Optical boutique. Here's how:
@sevafoundation is a global nonprofit eye care organization that transforms lives and strengthens communities by restoring sight and preventing blindness. Since 1978, Seva has helped nearly 4 million people regain their sight in more than 20 countries. Through its many partnerships, Seva provides critical eye care to underserved communities, especially women, children, and indigenous peoples.
Here's how:
1. School Vision Screenings
Ophthalmic nurses visit schools to screen all students and take vision measurements. Teachers are also trained in general eye health and care. Students whose vision indicates impairment or blindness are listed for secondary examinations.
2. Secondary Exams
Partner hospital staff (Optometrists and refraction nurses) conduct vision exams on students identified for follow-up. Children requiring glasses receive free prescription eyewear. Children diagnosed with other eye diseases are referred to the partner hospital for further treatment.
3. Treatment and Education
Seva partners visit the school to distribute the free glasses to children, complete with a final exam to ensure the child’s is seeing well. Teachers invite families to the school, where the students and families are educated about their child’s condition and treatment, including the importance of wearing glasses.
Modo frames are known for being light, comfortable to wear, & always deliver on style, quality, and design. Come by and check out our newest collection today and help restore sight to a child in need. #modoeyewear #sevafoundation
Does it surprise you that some babies need glasses? Well, it's often a shock to many parents.
We are sharing Noah's Eye Journey to help raise awareness on the importance of infant eye exams in order to help catch eye problems early, while your childs eyes are still developing.
Babies who have poor vision may be delayed in their development milestones, inattentive, and may be misdiagnosed with a learning or behavioral disability. 80% of learning is visual, so it's critical they are seeing clearly well before they enter kindergarten.
Early intervention means getting an eye exam as early as 6 months of age or even earlier if you are noticing any eye concerns. An eye exam can help reduce and even prevent future vision problems. Alberta Health covers eye exams for children between the ages of 0-18 years. Best of all, if your little one needs glasses, we carry indestructible @nano.vista frames as seen on Noah. #infanteyeexam

NEWS FLASH⚡️for our dry eye patients! There is a new prescription eye drop available for those suffering from dry eye disease. Cequa (cyclosporine ophthalmic solution, 0.09%) is now available in Canada. It is one of 3 drops available for the treatment of dry eye disease. As our Optometrists are passionate about dry eye treatments, Dr. Farrah has been part of all 3 medications advisory boards prior to their launch in Canada.
What makes Cequa unique is its Nanomicelle technology, which allows better penetration of the active ingredient (cyclosporine) on the front surface of the eye. In studies, Cequa has been shown to increase tear production and reduce inflammation on the front surface of the eye. The eye drop has demonstrated a good long-term safety and tolerability profile. To find out if Cequa is a good choice for your dry eyes, book in see one of our Optometrists. @sun_pharma_ #cequa
