A tribute to tradition and an unmistakable symbol of the Versace story, the Vanitas bow is the “element” that characterizes the collection: the arrival point for stylistic search, a synthesis of elegant design and sinuous graphics. An exquisite contemporary revamp of the relationship between shape and decorated surfaces. The bow pays tribute to the creativity, audacious genius and geometrical perfection of the ornamental motif created by Gianni Versace.

HealthDay (3/3, McKeever) reported that, according to a study published in the March 4 issue of the Journal of Neuroscience, “when macular degeneration causes one to start losing…sight, the affected neurons simply start seeking visual input from other, non-affected parts of the eye.” Researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology “found when the cells in the fovea, the part of the retina responsible for the central field of vision, were damaged by macular degeneration (MD) — the neuron attached to them” began “responding to stimuli in an undamaged section — a type of internal reorganization of the eye’s visual map as opposed to the cortex’s work being shifting to other neurons.” HealthDay also noted that MD patients “often compensate for lack of central vision by rolling their eyes upward so they can utilize the preferred retinal locus,” which is “an undamaged area under and adjacent to the affected part of the retina.”
I you fly frequently consider just how critical humidity is relative to your ocular comfort. The humidity in a pressured airplane cabin is likely as low as 10% and studies have shown that this level of humidity sustained for as little as 1 to 3 hours can be associated with significant mucosal irritation (eyes, skin, and upper airways). The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) requires liquid solution bottles that are “carried on” to be less than 3 ounces (~88.7 mL). It is important we remember this in the care of our “frequent flyer” patients – whether it be ocular lubricants, therapeutics, or contact lens care solutions.
Optimism is essential to achievment and it is also the foundation of courage and true progress. — Nicholas Murray Butler
Remember, eye wear is not a turnkey product. Lenses are custom ordered for each patient. We choose the best frame for the customer’s face and their correction. We have to insert their lenses, adjust their frame and keep their eyewear fitting well. We must be qualified to present a perfect pair of eyewear to the wearer. There is a lot of value added service that goes into a pair of glasses – more than meets the “eye”.
We simply carry the best eye wear that our patients want. There is not such thing as cheap quality. Only the cheap is cheap.
Your eye wear is the first thing people notice about you – not your shoes or purse!

DALLAS—This month, Essilor of America is introducing new and improved Crizal Avancé lenses with Scotchgard Protector, the most advanced Crizal lenses to date. The new Crizal Avancé lenses with Scotchgard Protector offer all the features and benefits of the prior generation, plus an improved scratch resistant layer.
Essilor scientists have worked for over a decade to develop a proprietary technology known as “The Scratch Resistant Booster,” which has been integrated into new Crizal Avancé with Scotchgard Protector. As a result, the lenses are virtually scratch free and are well below the minimum acceptable threshold, even when compared against Essilor’s own benchmark.
Crizal with scotchgard is available at Fine Eyewear & Eye care, located the three corners of Cedar Park, Austin and Round Rock, TX and a short drive from Georgetown, TX. Our address is 2800 E.
