What is an Optometrist?
Optometry is the Science of Visual Systems. World Council of Optometry (WCO) defines optometrists as follows:
1- “Optometrists are the primary healthcare practitioners of the eye and visual system who provide comprehensive eye and vision care, which includes refraction and dispensing, detection/diagnosis and management of disease in the eye, and the rehabilitation of conditions of the visual system.”
2- They are Primary/ Family Healthcare Practitioners of the Visual System who help in the provision of eye care in a given community working hand in hand with the consultants, local public, private, or NGO-based eye care delivery setups.
3- The Optometrists are qualified and trained for this function by undergoing an extensive 4-year program. These graduates need to be inducted into practical life by the provision of increasing opportunities of supervised hands-on exposure leading up to independent handling of patients, at a facility where the required human and material facilities exist.

The Ishihara test is a color perception test for red-green color deficiencies, the first in a class of successful color vision tests called pseudo-isochromatic plates.

It is used worldwide to select applicants for employment in occupations which require good colour vision. People with slight colour deficiency are intended to pass the D15 and people with significant (moderate/severe) colour deficiency to fail.

July is UV Safety Awareness Month and the perfect time to remind you to shield your eyes against the sun’s harmful rays with 100% UV-blocking sunglasses. Big hats with oversized brims also offer great protection. And don’t forget regular eye exams from your family Optometrist.
Dry Eyes
Are cases of dry eyes rising due to the increased usage of digital devices in our daily lives? Some studies believe so. Many people with extreme cases are not finding relief even after carefully following their treatment plan.
Patients often complain that over-the-counter eye drops alone do not provide adequate relief, hence the search for additional remedies.
A few simple steps can help if you are in a similar situation.
1. Stay Hydrated - use phone reminders or sticky notes to drink more water!
2. Warm Compress - place a warm washcloth over your eyes for a few minutes.
3. Blink More Often - blinking naturally hydrates our eyes, be conscious of it.
4. Screen Breaks - Take frequent time away from your screens
5. Quit Smoking - Not only will your eyes benefit but your overall health will!

The goal of Avastin treatment is to prevent further loss of vision. Although some patients regain vision, the medication may not restore vision that was already lost. Avastin may not ultimately prevent further loss of vision from the eye disease.
What is Avastin injection?
Avastin is a drug that is injected into the eye to help treat from eye diseases. The drug blocks the growth of abnormal blood vessels in the back of the eye. Those blood vessels can leak and affect vision, causing vision loss. Avastin is the brand name for the drug, which is called Bevacizumab.
