What's the difference between an optometrist and an ophthalmologist?

Optometrists primarily provide vision care, including prescribing glasses and contact lenses, diagnosing and managing eye conditions, and performing eye exams. Ophthalmologists are medical doctors who can perform surgeries, treat complex eye diseases and offer a broader range of medical care for eye conditions.

Can my diet affect my eye health?

Yes, your diet can significantly impact your eye health. Consuming a diet rich in antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, especially those like vitamins A, C, and E, zinc and omega-3 fatty acids, can support good vision and reduce the risk of eye diseases like macular degeneration and cataracts. Foods like leafy greens, carrots, citrus fruits and fish are beneficial for your eyes.

How can I relieve dry eyes?

Relieving dry eyes may involve using artificial tears, avoiding environmental triggers like smoke and wind, using a humidifier and taking regular breaks when using digital screens. Your optometrist can provide guidance on the best approach to manage dry eye symptoms based on the underlying causes and severity of your condition.
