Travel Tips:
- Be sure to pack a spare pair of glasses in case you lose or break yours. It's often difficult to find an eye doctor quickly when away from home. Not being able to see well is no fun on vacation or on business.
- Put your name and address on your glasses case so it might be returned to you.
- If you wear contact lenses, take extra lenses with you, just in case.
- If flying, take ocular lubricant drops on the plane with you. Aircraft air is very dry.
- If traveling to a dry, windy or dusty location, take ocular lubricant drops with you.
Stop by our office before your trip and we will give you a "Dr. Steensma Travel Kit" which includes:
- An ID card to put in your glasses case that guarantees return postage of your lost glasses back to our office .
- Ocular lubricant drops.
- A spare pair of contacts (if you are a contact lens patient).
- Some 1-Day contact lenses (if you are a contact lens patient and if appropriate for your prescription) for swimming.
Have Fun
