Is poor vision keeping you from your summer reading list?

Sitting at the beach on a beautiful summer day is a luxury that should be enjoyed. Many of us work 40 hours or more each week and it’s nice to have a few hours on the weekend to lounge near a body of water and catch up on a good book.

Your Saturday mornings all start the same: you grab the novel you’re currently reading, a cool beverage, your comfy lounge chair and you’re ready to roll. You arrive at the pool, beach or park (wherever you go to relax), sit down and open your book. But something’s not right.

The words and letters on the page look blurry and you’re struggling to make out the first paragraph let alone an entire page. You start thinking maybe it’s just the bright summer sun that’s causing the issue, so you put on your sunglasses and start again. Same problem.

It’s very possible that it’s not the sun or your reading glasses. Nope, you might just need an eye exam and/or a new prescription. Yep, it’s time to schedule an eye exam at Utah Eye Centers and get things straightened out.

Is LASIK surgery for you?

You’ve just come home after a long day at the office and you’re ready to crash. After a bite to eat, a hot shower, and a few minutes to catch your breath, it’s time to kick back and relax.

With that, you decide to catch a few minutes of your favorite TV show, so you head for the media room where your TV awaits. You plop down on the comfy sofa, kick off your slippers, and under your breath, you murmur: ‘Ahhh.‘

Yeah, home-sweet-home and time to let the day’s stress fall off your shoulders. You reach to put on your glasses, so you can see the guide on the TV screen to choose what you want to watch, but then you notice, uh-oh. You left your glasses on your desk at work and you used up your last set of contact lenses the night before. There are no “extra readers” hidden in your desk either, they snapped in half a few weeks ago.

So much for a little R & R.

But if you had had LASIK surgery like your husband and doctor suggested a few months ago, you’d be a lot further ahead. If you’re tired of wearing glasses, losing your glasses, and/or dealing with inserting and taking out contact lenses, perhaps it’s truly time to consider LASIK surgery.

Give Utah Eye Centers a call today, we’d be happy to share a few more advantages of undergoing LASIK surgery.
