Whether you wear glasses just for reading or use them all the time, it is important to know how to take good care of your glasses and make sure they meet your needs. Keep reading below to learn more about ongoing eyeglass maintenance. 

Refractive errors are the most common type of vision problem. According to the National Eye Institute, about 150 million people have some form of refractive error. 

Although eye conditions are more common in adults, children can also develop eye problems. If severe enough, vision issues in children can lead to vision loss. August is Children’s Eye Health and Safety Month, and it’s a great time to become aware of eye diseases and conditions in children.

The first week in December is “Older Driver Safety Awareness Week.” Driving is a wonderful privilege we get as adults, and we all want to maintain this freedom as long as we can.
 
Our physical and sensory abilities change as we age. Understanding common age-related changes, such as delayed reaction time and seeing less well in the dark, is the first step in older driver safety. 

Chances are, you know people who wear glasses and people who wear contacts. Maybe you’re one of them.
 
Glasses and contacts are common in our society. Many people need them to correct one or more vision problems. If you’re currently an eyeglass wearer, you might wonder from time-to-time if contacts are a viable, good, or better option than glasses for you.
