Vision North

We all have our weekend routines, but don't let your eye care slide! One of the best things you can do for your eye health is ensuring your case is as clean as your lenses.

Replace your contact lens case at least every 3 months. Even with regular cleaning, bacteria can build up in the case itself. If you can’t remember the last time you swapped yours out, today is the perfect day to start fresh!

Planning a getaway? ✈️

Before you pack your bags, make sure your vision is ready for the adventure! Use our Summer Eye Care Checklist:

We want to make sure you’re prepared for every view on your vacation. Give us a call at Vision North to schedule your pre-trip exam or to pick up your eye care essentials!

Are you a contact lens rule-breaker?

We get it—life happens! But during Healthy Vision Month, we want to remind you that your lenses are medical devices that need a little love to keep your eyes feeling their best.

✨ Replacing as scheduled ensures your eyes get the oxygen they need and prevents the protein buildup that causes that scratchy "end-of-day" feeling.

✨ Removing them nightly gives your corneas a chance to "breathe" and reset. Think of it as a nightly recharge for your vision!

🚫 And the golden rule: NO tap water. Even the cleanest tap water contains tiny microorganisms that can lead to serious infections. Always stick to fresh multipurpose solution for your lenses and your case.

It’s also worth noting that if you find yourself constantly reaching for rewetting drops, it might just be time for an upgrade. Contact lens materials are always improving, with newer designs built specifically for heavy screen use and long days.

At your next check-up, we can look into the latest options to make sure you’re in the most breathable, comfortable lens for your lifestyle.
