Yes, spending too much time looking at screens can cause something known as digital eye strain. This can cause headaches, blurry vision, and neck pain. Sometimes screens can’t be avoided so make sure you take the proper precautions. Don’t hold the screen too close to your eyes, use good posture, and make sure to take frequent breaks to give your eyes a rest.

No. When TVs were first developed they emitted low levels of radiation and — with excessive amounts of exposure — could theoretically cause vision problems. But radiation is no longer an issue with modern televisions. Watching tons of TV may not be the most productive use of your time but it won’t hurt your vision.

The term “20/20” refers to the sharpness of the vision. The top number is the viewing distance between the eye chart and the patient. The bottom number refers to the line or letter size on the chart. It is a measurement of how much a person can read when they are 20 feet away from the chart. 

Sometimes, you might see small things that look like cobwebs or spots in your vision. They are protein fibers that can clump together and cause a “floater.” Most of the time, 1 or 2 floaters are nothing to worry about; however, if you see a lot of them suddenly or bright flashes of light, you need to see an eye doctor right away. 

Even if you are using extended wear lenses, it is best to remove your contacts when you go to sleep. Wearing your lenses while sleeping will increase your risk for an eye infection. Also, keep in mind that the contact lenses sit on the eye directly, which decreases the amount of oxygen that is available. 

Yes. Prolonged exposure to the sun’s UV rays can increase your likelihood of developing cataracts. For that reason, the Academy of Ophthalmology recommends wearing UV-blocking sunglasses and hats every time you spend time outdoors.

Sort of. Carrots have a lot of beta-carotene, which your body uses to make Vitamin A, which can help promote good eyesight. But the goal should be to have a balanced diet overall.

Yes. Not only does your vision start to decline as you age, your risk increases for things like cataracts and glaucoma. But yearly comprehensive eye exams are recommended for all adults, regardless of age. If you are overdue for your yearly eye exam, contact one of our many Long Island locations today to schedule your appointment.

Yes, we can perform your vision screening and complete the required paperwork for submission to the DMV.
