You probably have a skincare routine that focuses on keeping your skin glowing and youthful. But what about your eyes about keeping your eyes healthy too? 

If you don't already have a great skin care routine, consider the skin care solution I outlines for Rosacea prone skin in this blog. It's the same routine I offer to my patients in my clinic.

Most people forget that their eyes and eyelids need daily care too. Healthy eyes start with healthy eyelids, and a few simple steps can make all the difference in how your eyes look, feel, and function.

Let’s walk through the steps that can easily become part of your daily self-care routine.

Cleanse Your Lids and Lashes

Your eyelids and lashes are delicate, but they collect debris, oils, and bacteria just like the rest of your skin. Using your...

 As an eye doctor, I often see my patients make one big mistake before going to bed: not removing their mascara. 

Leaving eye makeup on overnight might seem harmless, but it can cause flakes of mascara to fall onto your lids, giving bacteria a perfect place to grow. This buildup can lead to styes, lid inflammation, irritation, and even early signs of aging, like wrinkles!  And, of coarse, this also makes your eyes feel dry and uncomfortable. 

A Better Way to Remove Eye Makeup 

Instead of using harsh removers or scrubbing at your lashes, choose a product that’s gentle, effective, and designed for sensitive eyes, like Optase Sensitive Eye Makeup Remover. 

This ophthalmologist-recommended formula is made with clean ingredients and no harmful preservatives, so it won’t sting or dry out you...

Most people say that vision is their most valued sense. They would protect it over all of their other senses. Yet, we do very little in our daily lives to ensure our eyes are working properly. We expect our vision to be sharp to perform for us, but we don't think about steps we should take to support our eyes.

Every day, we need to support our bodies. We need to get enough sleep, eat healthy foods and bring nutrition to our cells, and we need to exercise. We also take steps to care for other parts of our bodies like out skin, hair, and teeth. 

We all know it is important to take care of our faces. We take 4 steps on a daily basis to ensure our beauty and improve our skin. One to two times a day, we care for the skin on our face by:

• Cleansing to get rid of dirt and oils

Traveling can be a little tricky when you have sensitive eyes or suffer from dry eye disease. There seems to be added environmental stressors around every corner when you are in a new setting. I travel often and I've developed a little kit of products that I'm always sure to grab when I leave town.

The last time I traveled I added a new product to the kit.  It's definitely going to be a staple of my daily care regimen whether I'm on the go or not.  I love this product so much that I don't just use it when I travel and its brand new, so I'm excited to talk to you about it. It's called Neutra Wipe from Tear Restore.

First, let's review the 4-simple steps to dry eye care:
