Dr Boyer Update


 

I would like to take a moment and give a special thanks to all of our patients and staff.  So many of you expressed concern, and I wanted to share with you some excellent news. 

Two years ago I was diagnosed with an inoperable , but benign, brain tumor.  A successful radiation therapy with UCLA helped keep the tumor from growing, however a side effect created some problems with my walking and I developed a shuffle. The radiation had created normal pressure hydrocephalus and I needed a shunt to remedy it. 

In the midst of Covid, scheduling a surgery was difficult, but finally in Feb 2021 I received treatment at Ronald Reagan hospital UCLA.  The effects were immediate! After a few weeks rest my function returned and I resumed work. 

I am fortunate, and so thankful for prayers, blessings and a great surgeon.

Thank you for all the well wishes. I hope to see you soon, as I continue helping with your eye care.

March is Workplace Eye Wellness Month


Smart phones, laptops, tablets and the other digital devices we use at work and on the go put information at our fingertips. They can also put a strain on our eyes.

7 Ways to Prevent and Relieve Eye Strain

  • Adjust your work space – looking down at your workstation can be the ideal position for keeping your eyes comfortable.  Make sure you keep your distance between 20 to 24 inches between your eyes and your computer screen.  Also, the center of your screen should be about 10 to 15 degrees below your eye level.  Adjusting your workstation to these ideal positions will help keep your eyes, back and neck most comfortable.
  • Use proper lighting – use curtain, blinds, other window treatments to avoid glare and eye strain.
  • Blink more – blinking is healthy and provides your eyes with much needed nutrients and moisture.
  • Modify your computer’s display setting – adjust your settings, text size and color temperature to reduce eye strain.
  • Take breaks – give your eyes a break from the screen by following the 20/20/20 rule. This will help avoid and relieve digital eye strain. Every 20 minutes, look away from your computer toward something 20 feet away and focus on it for at least 20 seconds.
  • Use prescribed specialized eyeglasses that can improve your productivity, comfort and vision.

During Save Your Vision Month, we want to remind you to be alert for symptoms of Computer Vision Syndrome: eye strain, dry eyes, headaches, fatigue, blurred vision and loss of focus. 

If you experience any of these signs, schedule an appointment at one of our 2 offices. We can suggest changes in your digital work habits or prescribe specialized eyeglasses.
