April at The Eye Shoppe: See Like a Rabbit, Shine Like Spring

Ah, April! The month when everything comes alive—flowers bloom, the days grow longer, and suddenly we're all squinting into the sunshine, realizing we left our sunglasses in a winter coat pocket.

Here at The Eye Shoppe, we're celebrating all things spring—and believe it or not, we’re taking a little inspo from nature’s most famous springtime icon: the rabbit. Yep, bunnies have some pretty impressive peepers, and we think there’s a thing or two we can learn from them when it comes to eye health.

Rabbit Eyes vs. Human Eyes: What’s the Difference?

Wide Field of Vision

Rabbits’ eyes are on the sides of their heads, giving them a nearly 360° view—perfect for spotting predators. While we humans only manage about 180°, what we lack in range, we make up for in focus. With the right glasses or contacts, you can keep your vision sharp whether you’re spotting your friend across the park or reading the fine print on allergy medicine.

Night Vision Powers

Bunnies can see well in low light—dawn and dusk are their prime time. While most humans struggle when the sun goes down, that’s where blue-light-blocking lenses and anti-glare coatings come in. If you’re doing late-night reading or screen scrolling, we’ve got the tech to keep your eyes comfy and strain-free.

Color Perception

Rabbits don’t see the full spectrum of colors like we do. Their world is more pastel—kind of like a perpetual spring! But since you can enjoy every vivid hue, why not do it through fresh, colorful frames? (Psst…our new spring collection just dropped )

Spring into Healthy Habits for Your Eyes

• Allergy Season = Eye Irritation
  Spring means pollen, and pollen means itchy, watery eyes. If your lenses feel like they’re full of fuzz, come by for a lens cleaning or talk to us about allergy-friendly options.
• Sunglasses Are a Must
  Longer days = more UV exposure. Even on cloudy days, your eyes are soaking in rays. Protect them with 100% UV-blocking sunglasses—bonus points if they’re as stylish as they are protective.
• Spring Cleaning for Your Specs
  When was the last time you cleaned your glasses properly? Swing by and we’ll show you how—or give yours a quick refresh in-store.
