Spring and Autumn mark the time that all us Allergy mongers suffer. Here are 8 Great Tips For Eye Allergy Sufferers

1)Get an early start. See your eye doctor before allergy season begins to learn how to reduce your sensitivity to allergens.
2)Try to avoid or limit your exposure to the primary causes of your eye allergies. In the spring and summer, pollen from trees and grasses are the usual suspects. Ragweed pollen is the biggest culprit in late summer and autumn. Mold, dust mites and pet dander are common indoor allergens during winter.
3)Protect your eyes from airborne allergens outdoors by wearing wraparound-style sunglasses. https://worldofglasses.co.uk/product-ca…/fitover-sun-shields/
4)Don’t rub your eyes if they itch! Eye rubbing releases more histamine and makes your allergy symptoms worse.
5)Use plenty of artificial tears to wash airborne allergens from your eyes. Ask your eye doctor which brands are best for you.
6)Cut down your contact lens wear or switch to daily disposable lenses to reduce the build-up of allergens on your lenses.
7)Shower before bedtime and gently clean your eyelids to remove any pollen that could cause irritation while you sleep.
8)Consider purchasing an air purifier for your home, and purchase an allergen-trapping filter for your heating/cooling system.

Phew!! It’s been the hottest day of the year, so I guess it stands to reason that it would be our busiest.  Thanks for all your orders folks and long may the sunshine continue!

I’ve just had a lovely phone call from one of my customers who called to reorder.  “I do love your glasses” she told me, “The next nearest alternative for me is £100 or thereabouts”.   Well Thank You, I said, it is important, I think,  to have well made affordable glasses available to the public.  Quite a lot of my customers come to me to reorder because their glasses have been left at the hairdressers, on a plane, train or just plain sat on.  It would be a costly do if you had to replace them at £100.00 a pop.  “Not only that” she continued, “They look like I’ve paid £100.00 for them!”  Here’s the link on her purchase.  https://worldofglasses.co.uk/shop/strong-reading-glasses-cateracts/
