Adjusting Your Vision To The Season

August 27, 2024

Ah, the pleasures of Autumn, with its crisp air and vibrant colors! Unfortunately, this endearing season also spawns a bevy of allergy and climate changes that can wreak havoc on our eyes! Our optometrist at 

Oronoque Eye Care wants to prepare you for everything the season has in store for the health of your vision so you can spend more time focusing on the best it has to offer!

Cooling off: The cold, dry air that accompanies dropping temperatures contributes to dry eye by reducing tear production. This condition is characterized by blurry vision and a feeling like there’s something gritty stuck in your eyes. Try using artificial tears to soothe your eyes and dialing back on your screen time to lower irritation.

Rotten timing: Mold, one of the most common allergens, is increasingly prevalent come Autumn, as fallen leaves and decaying wood create a welcoming environment for mold spores to thrive. Mold may be the culprit behind the redness, itching, tearing, and a burning sensation your eyes are experiencing. You can alleviate these symptoms by trying over-the-counter antihistamine eye drops. But if your symptoms are severe or persistent, please consult our optometrist for a full diagnosis and treatment.

Swing Shift: The frequent temperature changes that often accompany Autumn can lead to eye strain, which may include fatigue, headaches and blurred vision. That’s why it’s especially important to wear sunglasses to guard your eyes from harsh sunlight. And again, it’s always helpful to take frequent breaks from screen time to give your eyes some time to relax. 

Our optometrist at Oronoque Eye Care wants all our patients to enjoy all the splendor of this colorful season! This is the perfect time to schedule a visit for a comprehensive examination of the health of your eyes, the strength of your vision, and to discuss any conditions or concerns related to the coming season and beyond. We’re looking forward to seeing you soon!
