61 www.CharlestonWomenPodcast.com | www.ReadCW.com | www.Instagram.com/CharlestonWomen Dr. Betsy Fraser, founder of Compass Vision Care, seeks to bridge the gap between overall wellness and vision care. Located in Mount Pleasant, Fraser’s fresh approach to optometry encompasses vision and medical eye care, frames, contact lenses and cosmetic optometry. Compass Vision Care welcomes new patients of all ages with a preventative, inclusive and wellness-based approach to lifelong, healthy vision. Dry eye disease, macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy and vision and eye health evaluations are among the conditions screened for and treated. Fraser advised, “Be mindful of your screen time. Studies suggest that more than four hours per day on digital devices elevates one’s risk for dry eye. In addition, while on screens be sure to take frequent breaks from looking at the screen. I talk about the “rule of 20” daily at my office. Every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds.” Moreover, with advanced equipment, Compass Vision Care proudly offers individualized diagnosis and treatment of dye eye. With all diagnostic and treatment options tailored to meet the needs of every eye condition and individual, Fraser and Compass Vision Care are proud to welcome and serve you, whether you are looking for basic exams, retinal imaging or an optical boutique with a wide range of contacts and lenses with an on site laboratory — or anything in between. Compass Vision Care is happy to offer assistance on your journey to healthier vision. For more information, please visit compassvisioncare. com, or call 843-225-1168.
