Does your reduced vision have covid syndrome? with Dr. Kevin Gee
Before you see this title and think, “I have great vision, this doesn’t apply to me,” I beg you to stay with this conversation. Today’s guest, Dr. Kevin Gee, helps me understand what is happening to our eyes and with our vision as a result of all our screen time. He introduces me to the concept of "covid syndrome” and gives us applicable ways to help our eye health as we find ourselves on screens more and more.
We discuss:
- What we can learn about our health when we look into the eye
- Why an eye exam might be beneficial if you suspect an autoimmune issue
- What is happening to our eyes when we stare at screens so long
- The effect of blue light on your sleep patterns - it’s not just right before you go to sleep anymore!
- Realistic ways to manage the hours we are required to be on screens due to school and work.
- The three self components of self-monitoring our eye health
- Home remedies to promote eye health
- The surprising age the American Academy of Optometry recommends the first eye exam
