March 2020

Friends, The World Council of Optometry claims March as Save Your Vision Month. It aims to increase awareness about good eye care and encourages people to get regular eye exams. Save Your Vision Month reminds us not to take healthy vision for granted. Eyes are a large part of our everyday life. It is important to note that, just as your six month dental hygiene exams and yearly medical physical prevent complications from asymptomatic issues that otherwise might go undetected, annual eye health exams are critical in maintaining healthy vision for life. At Lake Oconee Eye Care, our doctors are available for after-hours eye emergencies. We love our patients! We are always here for you and welcome your call, email , or visit to our office anytime. We Wish You Luck, The Lake Oconee Eye Care - Vision Source Team
