Better Sleep with Umay REST®

The Importance Of Sleep For Eye Health

During sleep, our bodies produce melatonin, a hormone that plays a vital role in regulating our circadian rhythm. The circadian rhythm is the internal clock that controls our sleep-wake cycle, and it also affects various other bodily functions, including the production of tears. Melatonin helps regulate the production of tears, which is essential for maintaining the health of our eyes. Without enough tears, our eyes can become dry, itchy, and irritated, leading to various eye-related problems.

Sleep also promotes the production of growth hormones, which are essential for tissue repair and regeneration. Our eyes are constantly exposed to various environmental stressors, such as UV rays and blue light from electronic devices. These stressors can damage the delicate tissues in our eyes, leading to various eye-related problems. However, during sleep, our bodies repair and regenerate these damaged tissues, helping to maintain the health and function of our eyes.

FAQ

Q: Can I order Umay REST® online?
A: You can purchase Umay REST® directly through our website and in any of our locations.

Q: Is there a difference between a vision assessment and an eye exam?
A: Yes. A vision assessment can be done by a trained screener and does not require an optometrist or ophthalmologist to conduct the test. Vision assessments only determine what prescription you may need for lenses and do not assess any other aspects of your eye health. A comprehensive eye exam can only be performed by an optometrist or ophthalmologist and evaluates both the internal and external parts of the eye to detect common eye diseases. At My Optometrist, we perform both vision assessments and eye exams at the same time so that we can ensure you can see well and your eye health is properly cared for.

Q: What happens at an eye exam?
A: A comprehensive adult eye exam (for those between 19 and 64 years of age) at My Optometrist Calgary includes:

• A review of your past and present eye and general health issues, as well as your family history.
• A discussion of your visual needs at work or school, at home, and for leisure.
• Measurement of your current level of vision with and without your glasses or contact lenses, and determination of your prescription.
• Assessment of your ability to move and use both eyes together.
• Measurement of the pressure inside of your eyes.
• A visual field assessment to measure your peripheral vision
• Careful examination of the health of your eyes inside and outside. Drops to dilate your pupils may be recommended and administered.
