The sports and activities you enjoy can affect your risk of an eye injury and help your eye doctor recommend the right protection.

Be sure to mention activities such as basketball, baseball, racquet sports, cycling, yard work or home improvement projects. Depending on the activity, everyday glasses or sunglasses may not provide enough protection.

Your eye doctor can help you determine whether protective eyewear is appropriate for you.

Seeing clearly does not always tell the full story.

Conditions such as glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy may begin without obvious symptoms. Regular eye exams help your doctor evaluate both your vision and the health of your eyes.

Needing more light to read or having trouble focusing up close can become more common with age. But blurred vision, glare, difficulty driving at night, reduced side vision or other changes should not automatically be dismissed as “just getting older.”

An eye exam can help identify what is causing the change and whether treatment or an updated prescription may help. Make your appointment today.

Diabetes can affect the small blood vessels in the retina and may lead to diabetic eye disease.

Because early changes may not immediately affect vision, your doctor needs to know whether you have diabetes, how long you have had it and whether there have been recent changes in your health.

Be sure to include diabetes and other medical conditions when updating your health history.

Get to know Lance Stutz, M.D., cataract surgeon at Desert Vista Eye Specialists.

Dr. Stutz was drawn to ophthalmology by the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in a patient’s life, sometimes through a short cataract procedure. His approach begins with listening, understanding each patient’s goals and creating a care plan they can feel confident about together.

Healthy contact lens habits should be part of every day.

A few important reminders:
✓ Wash and completely dry your hands before touching your lenses
✓ Use fresh disinfecting solution each time
✓ Follow the replacement schedule recommended by your eye doctor
✓ Keep contact lenses and lens cases away from water
✓ Remove your lenses before sleeping unless specifically directed otherwise
✓ Keep a backup pair of glasses available

Experiencing pain, unusual redness, sensitivity to light, discharge or sudden blurry vision? Remove your lenses and contact an eye care professional promptly.

Even an occasional nap in contact lenses can matter.

Sleeping in lenses that are not specifically prescribed for overnight wear increases the risk of a serious eye infection. Tell your doctor about your real-life lens habits, not just your ideal routine, so you can receive practical recommendations that work for you.

Remove your contacts before sleeping unless your eye doctor has specifically instructed otherwise.

Myopia, or nearsightedness, makes distant objects appear blurry. When myopia becomes more severe, it can also increase the risk of certain eye conditions later in life, including retinal detachment, glaucoma and cataracts.

Regular eye exams help monitor changes in vision and overall health of the eye over time.

Bring an updated medication list to your eye appointment, including prescription medications, over-the-counter products, vitamins and supplements.

Some medications may affect the eyes or vision, while others provide important context about your overall health. A complete list helps your doctor understand the full picture and make informed recommendations.
