  1. Technology Backlash; Advanced Technology Taking a Toll on Kids' Eyesight

    Advanced technology in the classroom is typically reason for celebration.  However coupled with technology at home and nearly everywhere else has some Optometrists noticing a negative side effect to using technology.  In the past three years Dr. Christine Weld with Weaver Eye Associates in West York has seen an increase in the number of kids who need glasses.  In one week she sees up to 20 children.  She says most of the kids suffer from nearsightedness, which is caused by two things: heredity and the environment they are expose to and with technology nearly everywhere it’s playing a major role.

  6. Coroner: Hand-washing is the 'in' thing to do

    My wife showed me an advertisement recently that she thought might be a great reminder for people that relates to personal health and well-being. I couldn’t agree more and decided to pass it along through this column. After all, anything that might contribute to keeping each of us and our families healthy is vitally important to all of us. The ad is a picture of a hand with no fewer than 12 little germ cartoons holding on to the fingers and palm of the hand. Each germ has its own name and it tells what it will do to you if it gets into your body. As cute as these germs are in cartoon form, the message is just how easy it is to become infected in everyday activity by the things we touch, and how much damage these little germs can account for. The most important part of the message, though, is that they all can be prevented for the most part by the simple action of washing our hands. Frequent hand-washing is the key, with emphasis placed on doing so after using the bathroom and just before eating.
