Blue Light & Digital Eye Strain

The recently released study from The Vision Council:

  • 9 in 10 adults spend at least 2 hours per day on digital devices and 6 in 10 five or more hours!
  • 73% of adults under 30 experience symptoms related to Digital Eye Strain
  • 90% of adults do not talk about digital device use with their eye care provider

All About Vision, a leading site with shareable content for the eye care industry, recently released a balanced and comprehensive article on blue light. This educational article is a great resource to share with your entire practice and patients.

Important Notice

At Ultimate Eyecare, Dr. Rasmussen and staff understand the sobriety of the situation we all are facing in our nation- and our world- with COVID-19. We recognize the need for social distancing but we also recognize the needs of our patients to maintain good eye health.

Please know that we are remaining open to service our patients during this difficult time. Rest assured that we are maintaining cleanliness and disinfecting all areas multiple times per hour and after every person through our doors.We are screening every patient to determine the urgency of their medical condition, to assess their current means of visual correction, and to assess any risks posed to other patients or our staff.

Please visit here for further details of what is considered urgent, essential, or routine.

You can order your contact lenses through us. Shipping is free on orders of two or more boxes. Call us for more information.

We are limiting staff on hand on a daily basis. Therefore, we are requiring appointments for picking up eyeglasses or contacts. Please call our office to ensure that someone is here to help you as we cannot accept 'drop-ins' at this time.

Remember, at Ultimate Eyecare, we really do CARE how you look and see.
