Since April is all about Rosacea awareness, we wanted to talk about how having rosacea can affect your eyes, causing dry eyes. Having rosacea increases your risk of developing blepharitis. This condition causes blockages of the oil glands in our eyes. Without this oil being released into our tears, our tears evaporate much quicker, leading to redness, irritation, itching, and blurred vision. But no worries, we have a treatment for JUST that! ... Tempsure Envi can relieve dry eyes in a snap! It heats the glands to allow the release of more oil into your tears. Give us a call to talk about your options! #supportlocal #dryeye #cosmeticeyecare #smallbusiness #optometry #eyehealth #eyecare #fashioneyewear #takecareofyoureyes #dryeyes #dryeyedisease #redeyes #finelines #wrinkles #beautifullysimple #optometry #eyecare #tempsureenvi #radiofrequency #radiofrequencyfacial #kamloops #kamloopsnow #shoplocal

The best ways you can protect your eyes at home, aside from healthy eating and exercise, is to wear your proper prescription, wear sunglasses often and give your eyes a rest!

And taking a break from your computer screen or anything that requires focus helps to relieve tension....
