Summer is best known as the season of glare-related eyestrain, when you experience stinging of the eyes because of too much concentrated sunlight.
But did you also know that eyestrain can be caused by other factors? Indoors, your eyes can also suffer long-term damage after facing the TV, gadgets or computer monitors at less than a foot away.
While light is an essential part of daily life – helping you see, regulating your body clock, and even providing you with much-needed Vitamin D – too much of it can cause painful eye conditions, including eyelid twitches, eye pain and extreme sensitivity to bright light.
In severe cases, overexposure can permanently damage your central vision. Harmful blue light from artificial sources such as electronic devices causes retinal cell degeneration, while ultra-violet radiation from the sun contributes to the development of cataracts.
“Everyone, no matter the age or gender, should protect their eyes daily from bad effects of excessive exposure to light,” shares Dr. Emelita Roleda, Essilor Philippines general manager.
“The effects of overexposure to UV rays and harmful blue-violet light may only be visible during adulthood, when vision problems like Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) set in, so we highly advice the Filipino public to take preventive measures against them.”
Essilor, the world’s leading ophthalmic optics company, has come up with a solution that protects vision: Crizal® Prevencia multi-coated lenses, which selectively filters bad blue light and lets in essential good light needed for well-being.
“Essilor has undergone a rigid and thorough process in the creation of Crizal® Prevencia,” explains Dr. Roleda. “Its advanced light scan technology enables us to protect our eyes from irreversible eye conditions which threaten healthy vision.”
In addition to using Crizal® Prevencia lenses, she highly advices proper eye care. “Start by getting a comprehensive eye exam at least once a year,” she says. “Your eye doctor can determine the present condition of your eyes and help you take preventive or protective measures regarding possible vision problems.”
Another way to reduce the risk of eyestrain is taking frequent breaks from reading or monitor use, shares Dr. Roleda.
Lastly, she gives some sound sartorial advice when outdoors: “This summer, load your eyeglasses with Crizal® Prevencia lenses containing E-SPF 25. Then, pair your glasses with a nice hat or a sturdy umbrella.”
Indeed, eyesight is among the most important senses, but it receives less care than it deserves. By reducing strain, limiting exposure to harmful light, and making use of eyewear like Crizal® Prevencia lenses, you can protect your eyes all day long and ensure many more years of healthy vision.
Learn more about Crizal® Prevencia by visiting your eye doctor or leading optical shop nationwide, or by logging on to www.essilor.com.ph.

Cable Car, a cornerstone of the bar and restaurant industry in the Philippines since its founding in 1992, is celebrating its 25th anniversary. To mark this milestone, the establishment is opening new branches, revamping its menu, and planning exciting developments for the near future.
For the past 25 years, Cable Car has been a trusted name in the Philippines’ bar and restaurant industry. It opened its doors in 1992 as one of the pioneering restobars in Metro Manila. After a quarter of a century of serving millions of customers (approximately 250 to 300 per day) with delicious food and drink offerings, it has established a stellar reputation among several generations of Filipinos. The establishment is known for its San Francisco-style pub ambiance, beer pong nights, and popular dishes such as Cable Car Rice and Sisig Rice.
With its familiar, comfortable, and casual vibe, both Filipinos and tourists alike flock to Cable Car, which makes you feel at home from the moment you step inside. Over the years, it has remained a popular hangout spot, particularly for college students and young professionals looking to unwind, drink, relax, and socialize.
Cable Car is also a great option for families seeking a place to enjoy a meal together. It offers a full menu of hearty and flavorful dishes, many of which have a Filipino twist, making it perfect for a casual dinner during the week or on weekends. The story of Cable Car is one of remarkable growth and success, which has recently led to its expansion into franchising.
Its very first branch – Cable Car Makati – opened its doors in 1992 and was followed by Cable Car Tomas Morato and Cable Car BGC located at the Fort Strip.

This year, Cable Car is celebrating its 25th year of existence and has much in store to mark this huge milestone. These include a menu revamp to include more special dishes, branches opening 24 hours a day, a food delivery service, and a Big Open Grounds Concert Event with a host of exciting activities this November.
