We are generally pretty good about getting to the dentist one to two times per year but what about our vision? I'd venture a guess that of all the senses we would least like to lose is our sight, yet our eyes don't always get the love they deserve.
Dr. Carly Rose is an expert in midlife eyes, where she has not only built an optometry practice around improving people's precious sight but also the successful treatment of dry eye. Dry eye disease (DED) is more prevalent as we age and women are more affected than men. DED should be taken seriously, as it can cause permanent eye damage and even vision loss.
In this episode Dr. Rose and I discuss:
-Dry eye symptoms and the diagnosis
-Treatment for dry eye - what you can do at home, pharmaceutical options, in-office procedures
-Midlife vision changes and your correction options
-Aesthetic options to improve the look of your peepers
What you can do now for your eye health - lash cleaner, moist heat, completely remove make-up each evening and a good Omega-3 supplement
