Send us Fan Mail

In today’s episode Dr. Rani Banik is here to discuss everything about the visual system and the brain. First, we focus on the development of the visual system, then speak about our children’s screen time and how to best initiate their visual development. We touch upon the types of light, whether blue light blockers are necessary and the dangers and/or benefits of sun gazing. Listen in to hear how to choose the right pair of sunglasses to protect your child’s eyes. Dr. Banik explains why it’s not only important to have your kids eat vegetables for physical health, but also for their eyes! Lastly, we discuss the true difference between headaches and migraines and how you can help yourself when you feel one.
