Undoubtedly, many people would rank eyesight as one of the top most valuable human body mechanisms.  However, many of us forget the importance of getting a regular eye exam or even value the health of our eyes.  I’ve got friends who’ve neglected going for an eye exam because it’s the one body function that they don’t seem to think or care about on a daily basis.  The odd thing is, how can someone not think about their eyes when it’s one of the most important bodily functions in their lives?  In my opinion, I think it’s the lack of education on being proactive about keeping your eyes healthy – and this is where optometry practices can benefit.

A lot of people I know don’t have a regular optometrist that they visit, and they don’t know what’s the first step to maintaining healthy eyes.  People don’t realize the importance of preventing eye problems until it develops – especially vision problems.  Like most health related issues, education is the key to prevention.  Optometry practices can take advantage of this opportunity to educate potential and current patients by sending brochures and cards to promote eye health.  Preventive care postcards are a great way to remind patients to appointments  for regular eye exams and educating them on daily eye health maintenance.

Here are some of my favorite eye health preventive care postcards:
