August is Children’s Eye Health and Safety Month. Children’s Eye Health and Safety Month began when Prevent Blindness America (PBA) declared the month’s recognition in an effort to educate parents on the importance of their children’s healthy vision. NJ Top Docs reached out to a few of our reviewed and approved healthcare providers to see what systems currently exist for protecting our children’s vision.

In the United States, June is designated as PTSD Awareness Month and June 27th is the specific day designated for National PTSD Awareness. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition experienced by 7- 8% of the population.

A traumatic event is defined as any experience that threatens your life or safety, or if you witness something horrible happening to someone else. For example, here are a few types of traumatic events that could lead to development of PTSD: Military combat Sexual Assault Physical Assault Child Abuse Serious Car Accidents Natural Disasters (Hurricanes, Fires, Tornadoes, Floods, Earthquakes, Etc.) Terrorist Attacks The similarity between all of these different types of events is the fact that you may not have control over what’s going on, causing extreme fear and panic. Experiencing a traumatic event is not rare, in fact, half of the American population has been through a traumatic event at some point in their life. Out of those people, around 1 in 10 men develop PTSD along Read More
