Luthuli Optometrists Germiston

Retinal photography gives us a detailed window into your overall health not just your eyes 📸👁 Through the retina, we can detect early signs of glaucoma, diabetes, hypertension, and even neurological conditions before you have any symptoms at all. Ask your optometrist if retinal imaging is part of your exam.

Sleep and your eyes 😴👁️

Not getting enough sleep doesn't just make you tired — it affects your eyes too.

Poor sleep can cause:
😶 Eye twitching (myokymia)
🔴 Redness and irritation
💧 Dry, itchy eyes
😵 Light sensitivity
🌫️ Blurry or strained vision

Aim for 7–9 hours. Your eyes do a lot of repair work while you rest.

Sweet dreams and clear mornings. 🌙
