May is Healthy Vision Month and the perfect time for Ophthalmologists and Optometrists to make others see the importance of maintaining their eye health.

Healthy vision is much more than getting checked for eyeglasses. A comprehensive dilated eye exam is the best way to screen for many eye diseases or conditions that can cause serious problems if left untreated. Glaucoma, detached or torn retinas, and signs of diabetes are among the detectable conditions.

The National Eye Institute (NEI) offers “5 Tips for Healthy Eyes”:

• Get a Dilated Eye Exam
• Live a Healthy Lifestyle
• Know Your Family History
• Wear Protective Eyewear
• Wear Sunglasses

The NEI is a great source of information for the public, but also a wealth of free marketing resources for eye care practitioners, including graphics, banners, posters, and infographics you can use in your office or on your website and social media.

Like these ideas, but can’t see yourself handling all the marketing yourself? The solution is crystal clear. Contact us at Omnizant Interactive and we’ll help make your vision a reality.
