Beyond Glasses: ICL, RLE, and More Vision Correction with Dr. Rowen

Tired of fumbling for your glasses or wrestling with contacts? This episode is for you! Join Melissa and Selah as they dive into vision correction with Dr. Sheri Rowen, exploring ICL, RLE, and LASIK – the superstars of clear vision. Not sure what those acronyms mean? ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) works like internal contact lenses (and are even removable!), while RLE (Refractive Lens Exchange) can drastically reduce your need for glasses. And of course, there's the OG, popular LASIK procedure that reshapes your cornea for clear vision. But that’s not all we cover! Learn why dry eye often affects contact lens wearers and how to protect your eyes from screen time with blue light glasses and the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away and blink, blink, blink! Don't miss this eye-opening episode!
