This is what happens when little boys play with big sticks!
Sunday trip to minor ailments for some superglue & steristrips.
Happier boy now but going to have a keeker for a while.
Lesson learned- don’t throw big sticks near people, it could have been so much worse 🫣 ... See MoreSee Less

Even if you feel you have no issues with your vision, an eye examination can detect problems earlier when intervention can lead to better outcomes.Why do women have a higher risk of developing several eye diseases and conditions that cause vision problems?
Some conditions such as age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, autoimmune diseases, glaucoma, and thyroid eye disease seem more prevalent in women so why?
Some reasons can be that on average women live longer than men, therefore this gift of aging provides them with a higher risk of contracting eye problems and other health conditions.
Aging brings in menopause and those resulting hormonal changes can alter a women’s vision.
Financial disparities can also place women at a disadvantage to maintain a lifestyle that can protect their eye health.
In Scotland we are privileged that eye care cost is covered by the NHS and this can help to reduce this disparity.
Managing general family responsibilities can sometimes overwhelm women, they will organise a family member’s doctors appointments but may not do the same for themselves.
Pregnancy can also have an impact on vision. Some women have trouble seeing clearly during certain phases of their pregnancy therefore it is important to regularly have their eyes checked.
