Summer Savings

Get A Clear View With Vision One Eye Care Program

Summer is here. And for many people, that means travel time. As you're planning and packing, don't overlook your eyewear. Losing your glasses or contacts or experiencing eye care problems can put a damper on your well-planned trip. The American Optometric Association offers these travel tips:

Pack a spare pair of glasses or contacts.
Carry along a copy of your eyewear prescription in case you need a fast replacement.
Take your optometrist's phone number. If you need to have an eye check, the local optometrist may need to consult with your home optometrist about your eyes' health and vision.
On extended vacations, get the name of a local optometrist in case of an emergency.
Wear sunglasses. You're sure to spend time outdoors on a summer trip, and wearing sunglasses will help protect your eyes from the sun's damaging ultraviolet (UV) rays. Before you buy sunglasses, talk to your optometrist about adequate UV protection.
If you're driving, take a break every couple of hours to give your eyes needed rest.

Your NASE membership is your key to saving 20 to 60 percent off regular retail prices on all eye care needs. And Vision One Eyecare Program is a nationwide program with more than 1,700 providers, so you're sure to find a provider conveniently located near you.
