Men’s Health




You workout. You try your best to eat healthy. You drink plenty of water. But what about your eyes? What does it takes to keep your vision healthy? Your eye health has a major correlation to the rest of your overall health.


Part of staying healthy is making sure you’re on top of your preventative checkups. However, men tend to schedule 1/2 as many health visits as women.


Maybe you don’t wear glasses or contacts and haven’t had any issues with your eyes. You might think, “Why would I need to go the eye doctor every year?” It turns out that men have a higher mortality for most leading causes of death including cancer, heart disease and diabetes. Early warning signs of these diseases can be found through an eye exam.


In partnership with an eye exam, you can also diminish your risk with proper nutrition. Research has shown nutrients such as lutein and zeaxanthin, found in leafy green vegetables and eggs, can support healthy vision. As well as vitamin C, vitamin E and zinc, which can be found in whole, unprocessed fruits and vegetables.


Schedule an annual comprehensive eye exam today with Dr Boyer or Dr Brian to ensure you’re staying on top of your health and can work with your doctor’s to address any issues.

Scleral Lenses


 The latest development in the world of contact lenses is the scleral lens. The sclera is the white part of the eye surrounding the clear cornea. Scleral lenses ride on the sclera and vault over the cornea. This unique contact offers some special advantages for those with corneal problems; keratoconus causes the cornea to be distorted. Hard lenses covers up the distortion and provides good vision. However, a standard lens rides on the cornea and, for many, is very uncomfortable. The scleral lens provides both the vision and the comfort.

The Zen Lens by Bausch and Lomb is especially designed for easier fitting and practical use. Problems like corneal scaring, corneal transplants, and dry eyes can be greatly eased with the Zen lens.
