Vitamin E and Selenium Disappoint

Taking daily supplements of selenium or vitamin E appears
to have no significant effect on the development of cataracts
in men. The results of an American study involving 11,267
participants, followed over a period of 5.6 years, shows that
long-term use of daily vitamin E supplements has no effect on
cataract incidence. The data also exclude any large beneficial
effect on cataract for long-term use of selenium supplements,
with or without vitamin E, although a smaller but potentially
important beneficial effect could not be ruled out.

PLEASE NOTE – We are currently open on Wednesdays and Fridays.

Protecting our Patients from Coronavirus

Steps our Practice is taking:

Any team member who is sick has been told to stay home.
We sanitize all equipment and patient contact surfaces after every use and again at the end of the day.
Our team members wash their hands after contact with each patient and throughout the course of the day.
We have sanitizing stations in our office.
Social distancing.

To our Patients:

If you have recently traveled outside of the United States, or have had close contact with someone who has, or if you have a fever, cough or other symptoms of acute respiratory distress, please call our office to reschedule your visit.
We do expect this to be an ongoing situation in our area for an extended period of time and do not want our patients to neglect their eye care needs during this time.
Please call us with any questions or concerns, and if you feel it is best for you or your family member to reschedule your appointment, feel free to do so.

We are all in this together. We can all help out our fellow human being.
