Do your patients have blue light on the brain?

“[My patients] are all aware of how digital devices may contribute to eye strain, but they are not aware of the potential for physical damage to the visual system,” says John Fleming, O.D., of his patients’ blue light awareness at his two California practices. “We need to do a much better job as an industry to make our patients aware of this possibility.”

Enlighten your patients (and your practice) with this rundown of three ECPs’ best-selling blue-light-blocking lenses.
