@FlaumEye
When someone comes in for a low vision exam at Flaum, there are several ways tools we might use to asses their vision. No matter what their goals are, our experienced and dedicated low vision team is dedicated to helping them achieve those goals! #Optometry #EyeCare #Rochester
Each year, over 30 million people have cataract surgery—and Rochester leads the field in developing new approaches to one of the most important procedures for restoring sight #URochesterResearch | uofr.us/40UgKOi @CvsUor @FlaumEye @RochesterOptics @ur_engineering
We welcome @UCLA senior undergrad Carlos Alvarado as a @NSF #REU Summer student @marcoslabur @RochesterOptics @cvsuor @flaumeye @UofR #Hajim; Working on mapping novel lens designs in #AO #VisualSimulators
Our final fun fact about UV safety deals with the suns reflection! Surfaces like water and sand can reflect UV rays and increase your exposure. Remember to keep your eyes safe laying on a beach or having a snowball fight. #UVsafety #UVSafetyMonth #EyeCare #VisionCare
Scientists at the University of Rochester and the Flaum Eye Institute are working on groundbreaking research into intraocular lenses! These lenses are small and are used in cataract surgery, and can help restore clear vision for millions! Read more here: rochester.edu/newscenter/wha…

July is UV safety month. Just like damaging your skin, UV rays can also damage your eyes. Prolonged exposure can lead to problems like Cataracts and Macular Degeneration. So keep those shades on, to help keep UV rays out! #Ophthalmology
If you're struggling with low vision, you're not alone. At the Flaum Eye Institute, Dr. Jennifer Krech and our Low Vision Clinic team partner with Goodwill Vision Enterprises to offer personalized care, to help you achieve your vision goals. #Eyecare #Visioncare #RochesterNY
