Healthy Vision with Dr. Val Jones: Recent Episodes
HealthyVision
HEALTHY VISION with Dr. Val Jones seeks to close the gap between vision care attitudes and behaviors by providing listeners with timely and relevant information and helpful resources to help them manage eye health for themselves and ... their families. The program is supported by ACUVUE® Brand Contact Lenses.
On the inaugural show, Dr. Jones is joined by leading experts from around the country to take a close look at three vital areas to maintaining eye health and wellness: regular eye exams, contact lens compliance and protecting eyes from harmful UV rays.
Learn why an eye exam is important beginning in infancy and how eye care professionals can identify some medical conditions, such as diabetes and high blood pressure, just by looking in your eyes.
Did you know it’s just as important to protect your eyes from the sun’s harmful rays as it is to shield your skin from the sun? Learn about the risks of not protecting your eyes from ultraviolet (UV) rays, beginning in childhood, and how you can get added protection to your sunglasses.
Research shows that many contact lens wearers are significantly non-compliant when it comes to taking care of their contacts. Hear from the author of a recently published study that looked at the wear and care habits of contact lens wearers, learn the risks associated with not following your eye doctor’s instructions, and find out about a free tool to help you remember when to change your lenses on time.
