He tells us that it takes about four hours to carve a bear plus some fi nishing time for grind-ing and staining. Also an acrylic painter of nature scenes, Steve mentioned, “I like to create, and I love art, like the people that are inspired by it.”

He has been attending car shows for the last four-and-a-half years and this is his 28th show this year. Jeff originally bought the car for his wife, but she didn’t like it, so he turned it into a show car. That’s this guy’s amaz-ing story.

will be reminded to obey the posted speed limit on Route 46 (Kendall Ave-nue). The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation recently placed a radar-controlled speed display sign between Euclid Avenue and Brad Penn Way. The speed display board is to aid in curbing speeding, a common type of aggressive driving. The sign faces northbound traffi c and utilizes radar to determine the speeds of oncoming traffi c. Vehicle speeds are then posted on the lighted section of the sign. The posted speed limit in this area of Route 46 is 25 miles per hour. The speed display sign will remain on location for up to four weeks. Speeding and other aggressive driv-ing behaviors are among the leading causes of crashes and fatalities in Penn-sylvania. Other aggressive driving be-haviors include running stop signs or red lights, passing illegally and tailgat-ing. Aggressive driving behaviors were listed as a crash cause in 48 percent of McKean County crashes in 2014.

“Refugee Crisis”-by Bob Perry

The number one (1) destination for displaced families fl eeing Syria is Turkey with a reported 1.9 millions to-date. Lebanon has accounted for 1+ million; Jordon with 629,000; Iraq with 250,000; Egypt with 130,000+; Ger-many 99,000+; Sweden with 65,000; France 6,700+; UK with 7000+; Den-mark with 11,000+; Hungary with 18,000+; U.S. with 1,800. Since the start of the civic war, the devastating effects on the mere ability to have a job and feed the families have been forcing Syrians to seek refuge. A major reason this tragedy to have continued is the unwillingness of the political leaders in the United States to take action after a red line was drawn and crossed. The red line has turned into red blood and it continues to fl ow. Thank you Mr. President, after all it was your red line. Since nothing has happened to solve the Syrian crisis it must be assumed it is because it is the way the President wants it along with other problems in the area. Annually, the United States imports and distributes across the nation some 70,000 refugees from around the world. Now there will be more, many more. Recently it was announced the Presi-dent has ordered more Syrians (10,000) allowed next fi scal year which starts in October with the quota admissible ref-ugees increased to 75,000. Hold your breath as the number may well increase. You should expect some to show up in your neighborhood as time passes. It must be noted that the appearance of ISIS, or ISIL if you prefer, has been a major contributor to the spreading of fear of being captured and being treat-ed other than what they declare is ac-ceptable. Horror stories are reported by news agencies describing the treat-ment being handed out, most which is not worth describing. It is abundantly clear that ISIS would not exist had the crossing of the red line in Syria been dealt with as well as the retaining of troops in IRAQ. The Status of Forc-es Agreement with IRAQ leadership would have been achieved with proper military leadership from the top. We did not have to give up our presence and should not have. This particular recent surge of refugees from the Middle East will notably include radicals which in-tend harm and will pose problems to all countries taking them in. Looking at the European Union it is important to note that once one enters

the Union they are guaranteed unre-stricted movement from country to country. The countries in the Union have become welfare states and in time the money will run out and civil unrest will grow. The money here in the Unit-ed States ran out some time ago and un-rest is surely ahead of us. FYI: To be a refugee trying to enter the U.S. one must: Be located outside the United States; Is of special humanitar-ian concern to the United States; Dem-onstrated that they were persecuted or fear persecution due to race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or mem-bership in a particular social. group is not fi rmly resettled in another country; Is admissible to the United States. Will the day come when the U.S. will be exporting refugees?

While there are many pictures of inter-est in this edition of the Bradford Jour-nal, those in the spotlight this week come from the Comedy Night event held at Bradford VFW Club’s Event Center, Sat-urday, September 12th, and the Autumn Daze Car Show held in downtown Brad-ford, Sunday, September 13th…….This week we ask our readers to remember way back to the year 2009 when the Af-fordable Care Act, sometimes referred to as “Obamacare” was under attack by such notable politicians as Sarah Palin, former Governor of Alaska and her co-horts. She claimed that the legislation for the ACA would include death panels to re-duce the cost of such health insurance by selecting for elimination, the terminally ill and the lowest IQ segments of the popula-tion. While it was true that the original bill would have paid physicians for providing voluntary counseling to Medicare patients about living wills, advance directives, and end-of-life care options, this was the extent of it. There were no death panels, and Sarah Palin’s remarks concerning the subject (now known as the “death panel myth) were offi cially discredited and de-bunked. And due to public concern caused by the myth (30% of the people thought it to be true), the provision to pay physi-cians for providing voluntary counseling was removed from the Senate bill and was not included in the law that was enacted. But what was Sarah Palin thinking when she made her claim, and implied that the law would attempt to save money by do-ing “thus and such”. She certainly knew that the insurance companies were cor-porations that were obligated to make as much money for the stockholders as pos-sible. And she certainly knew that insur-ance companies would be helping our representatives in Congress to write the bill itself. But most importantly, she was old enough to have witnessed for her-self that allowable payments for medical treatments, diagnostics, and drugs often determine the treatment made available to the patient by our hospitals and physi-cians. In short, she would have known that in a contest between the profi ts of insur-ance companies and the best care for their clients (the patients), while it may not be pretty, stockholders would win, and pa-tients would lose. The questions remain, “Is this still happening?” and “Who will speak out?”.......Mark your calendars. The Bradford VFW Post 212 will com-memorate POW/MIA day in Veteran’s Square, September 20th at 11:00AM, and hold a free steak dinner at 3:00 PM at their events center for those who fought in Korea on the same day. Guest dinners are available for $15.00 (call for reserva-tions).

BUSINESS & PERSONAL FINANCESHow The Tooth Fairy Can Teach Your Kids About Money

-by Nathaniel Sillin When those fi rst baby teeth start wobbling, you and the Tooth Fairy can combine forces to teach your kids about money. Visa’s latest annual Tooth Fairy sur-vey indicates that the average price of a lost tooth is $3.19 in 2015. This is the fourth consecutive year that young Americans are fi nding more than $3 under their pillows from the fabled fairy. That puts a full set of 20 depart-ing baby teeth around $63. The survey also found that the most common mon-etary gift given by the Tooth Fairy is $1, and that dads report the Tooth Fairy is more generous, giving nearly 27 per-cent more than what moms report. First, how much should parents give? Visa offers a free Tooth Fairy app (www.practicalmoneyskills.com/apps) for iOS and Android devices and an on-line calculator (www.practicalmoney-skills.com/toothfairy) to help parents determine an appropriate amount for children to receive per lost tooth. While not an endorsement of how much mon-ey children should receive, the app and calculator uses Visa’s latest survey data and demographic factors such as gen-der, age, home state, family size, mari-tal status, income and education lev-els to formulate how much money the Tooth Fairy is leaving in comparable households. You might consider giving kids a piggy bank – or a series of piggy banks for specifi c purposes such as spending, saving or investing – to have ready once that fi rst tooth comes out. Talk with your child about the importance of put-ting some money away when it comes in for various purposes including char-ity, so he or she learns about the impor-tance of helping those with less. Here’s how the Tooth Fairy can help you guide your kids through their im-portant, fi rst-time money activities: Learning to handle coins and cur-rency. Kids need a bit of time to get to know coins and bills – what they feel like, what they’re worth and how they’re used. Start by letting them han-dle a few coins and then start identi-fying their value – how fi ve pennies makes a nickel and two nickels make a dime, and so on. Before a child can save, spend, invest or share, they have to understand the value of money that the Tooth Fairy has left under their pil-low. Making their fi rst purchases. Tooth Fairy money may be a child’s fi rst source of income. Teaching your kids about the value of money is an impor-tant lesson. It’s a chance to balance fun

and priorities, wants and needs. Once a certain amount of money is set aside for savings, then head to the store with your kid to look for a small toy or treat. It’s important to discuss the item fi rst and to encourage comparison-shopping for the best price. But once the item is selected, put the child in charge of the transaction. Dealing with other sources of mon-etary gifts. The Tooth Fairy often pro-vides that fi rst connection between kids and cash, but other money resources usually arrive soon afterward. Starting school means allowances and children may already be getting birthday and holiday gifts of cash from friends and relatives. With every new source of funds, keep the discussion going on the importance of spending wisely while saving, investing and giving to those in need. Budgeting. As kids get older and start using money more extensively, in-troduce them to the concept of budget-ing – the practice of tracking, counting and allocating spending. Parents might want to give themselves a refresher course (http://www.practicalmoney-skills.com/budgeting) if they’re not consistent about budgeting their own money. Moving from piggy banks to real banks. Kids can keep a piggy bank around as long it’s effective, but kids need to see how adults handle money.

Regular trips to the bank allow chil-dren to ask questions about how banks work and why they’re important. Even-tually, they’ll be ready for their fi rst sav-ings account. See what account savings options your bank provides for young children. Bottom line: Lost teeth are an edu-cational gold mine for your kid. You and the Tooth Fairy can work together to make each little windfall an impor-tant lesson about money.

Studio B Dance Academy proudly an-nounces the members of its elite dance company, The Queen B’s for the 2015/2016 season. This year the Queen B’s have di-vided into two small dance groups: the Di-amonds and the Rubies. The diamonds are the returning Queen B’s ages 12 an up and the Rubies are the younger dancers ages 10 to 11 and new Queen B’s. Advanced level students of the dance academy au-ditioned for spots in the company. The students, ranging in ages from 10 to 17, learned and performed a quick combina-tion routine and also performed a short in-dividual dance. Members of the company were selected after much careful delibera-tion by Katie Neidich, studio owner, and Bri Pattison, the studio’s new part-time in-structor and Assistant Coach for the dance

company. Neidich acknowledges and ap-preciates the work and dedication of those who auditioned and regrets that all could not be in the company. Neidich announces that members of the Diamonds are Emi-lee Bruno, Grace Dalton, Dylan Giordano, Mariah Gow, Ashley Keane, Cadence Pa-nol and Cailie Shanks and members of the Rubies are Sailor Campbell, Lilly Kemick, Madeline Kloss, Katherine Roessler and Rainey Updegrove. Members of this elite dance company have committed to rehearsing together every week and any other additional time as deemed necessary to achieve the quality of level of performance that we have come to expect from Studio B Dance Academy. The Queen B’s are also expected to rep-resent Studio B Dance Academy and be role models for current dance students. The Queen B’s recently performed at the Autumn Daze Car Show. Keep an eye out for the Queen B’s at local events such as Autumn Classic, Pumpkinfest, Old Fash-ioned Christmas, First Night and local parades. The Queen B’s will also perform an additional dance number during the an-nual dance recital on Saturday, June 4th. This year’s recital celebrates the divas of the decades.

ON THE HEALTHY SIDEFive Tips To Tackle

Baby’s Little Tummy Troubles

(NAPSI)—A baby’s fi rst year can be a delightful but sometimes stressful time for new parents as they try to dis-cern their infant’s needs and wants. Bridget Swinney, MS, RD, a mother of two, understands how troubling it is to help calm a fussy baby with tummy troubles. An award-winning author and well-regarded nutrition expert in the fi eld of prenatal and children’s nutrition and family eating matters, she offers these tried-and-true tips to tackle baby tummy troubles. • Check the baby’s position: Keep baby upright while feeding and keep him or her sitting up for 30 minutes af-ter a feeding. Make sure the baby has a good latch on the breast or bottle. • Check for places where babies can gulp in excess air: • When bottle-feeding, make sure that the nipple opening of the bottle is not too big, which can cause babies to gulp air between large mouthfuls. Tip the bottle up so that the nipple is fi lled with milk and baby doesn’t get any air. • Forceful letdown and an overabun-dant milk supply in breast-feeding can also cause baby to gulp in excess air. • Work it out. Baby massage and a baby “bike ride” (pumping legs back and forth while baby is on his/her back) can help get rid of extra gas. A warm bath can soothe both baby and mom. • Comfort your baby quickly. Crying babies swallow a lot of air, so respond to your baby right away. Consider “wear-ing” your baby in a sling if he or she is fussy. • Try gas drops or gripe water. Prod-ucts such as Little Remedies® Gas Re-lief Drops and Little Remedies® Gripe Water can help relieve excess gas from food or swallowing of air. The Little Remedies® brand was

American Institute for Cancer Research Q:How am I supposed to use those “% Daily Value” fi gures on food labels? A: Checking “% Daily Value” information can help you in two ways: as a guide for identifying foods relatively high or low in certain nutrients, and as a tool for comparing different food choices. The Daily Value is a research-based estimate of how much of that nutrient an average adult should eat as part of a healthy 2000-calorie diet. The % Daily Value tells you how much of the target amount for that nutrient is in a serving of that food, based on the serving size listed on the label. For a nutrient that’s best to limit, such as saturated fat or sodium, containing less than 5 percent of Daily Value means a food can be an especially good choice, while containing 20 percent or more of the Daily Value signals need for caution. But if it’s a nutrient you’re trying to boost in your eating habits, such as dietary fi ber or vitamin C, a food that contains 20 percent or more of Daily Value can be a good choice to help you reach healthy levels. The % Daily Value (%DV) fi gures won’t give you – or any individual – precise help because people’s needs vary depending on age, gender and overall calorie requirements. But you can use the %DV to compare brands to help you choose a lower sodium soup or a higher fi ber breakfast cereal, for example. When you compare %DV, check the serving sizes on the packages to make sure you’re com-paring the same amounts.

Plant Now For A Beautiful Garden Now And In The Future Don’t pack away that shovel and trowel. Fall is a great time to plant a few new additions in the landscape. Here are just a few ideas for adding im-mediate and long term beauty to your garden. Add cool season annuals like pan-sies, snapdragons, ornamental kale and stocks to brighten the fall garden. Those in milder regions will enjoy them throughout the winter. Consider add-ing cold hardy pansies. They provide color in the fall garden, survive most winters, and are back blooming in the spring just as the snow melts. Fall is also a good time to plant peren-nials, trees and shrubs. The soil is warm and the air cooler, so the plants are less stressed and establish more quickly. Select plants suited to the growing con-ditions and be sure to give them plenty of room to reach their mature size. Plant trees so the root fl are, the place where the roots curve away from the trunk, is even with the soil surface. Dig a hole, the same depth as the rootball, and two to fi ve times wider. Roughen the sides of the hole and backfi ll with the existing soil. Water thoroughly and spread a two to three inch layer of mulch over the soil surface, keeping the mulch away from the tree trunk. Follow a similar planting procedure for shrubs. Plant these so the crown, the place where the stems meet the roots, is even with the soil surface. And be sure to keep the mulch away from the stems.Plant daffodils, tulips, hyacinths and other bulbs in fall for extra color next spring. Set the bulbs at a depth of two to three times their height deep. Then cover them with soil and sprinkle on a low nitrogen slow release fertilizer, like Milorganite (milorganite.com). This organic nitrogen fertilizer promotes rooting without stimulating fall growth subject to winter kill. Start planting spring fl owering bulbs after the nighttime temperatures hover between 40 and 50 degrees. Be patient – waiting until the soil cools reduces the risk of early sprouting that often oc-curs during a warm fall. Those gardening in the far south and along the gulf coast can purchase pre-cooled bulbs to compensate for the warm winters. Or the chilling can be done at home by storing the bulbs in a 35 to 45 degree location for at least 14 weeks before planting. Those tired of battling the animals may want to plant resistant bulbs such as daffodils, hyacinths, Fritillaria, al-liums, Camassia, glory-of-the snow, snow drops, squills, and grape hya-cinths. You may fi nd it is easier to avoid the problem than battle the ani-

mals with repellents and scare tactics. Plant a few short season vegetables in your garden for fresh-from-the gar-den fl avor this fall. Simply count the days from planting to the average fi rst fall frost to determine how many grow-ing days are left in your area. Select vegetables that will mature and can be harvested in that amount of time. Leaf lettuce, spinach, mustard greens, rad-ishes and carrots are fast growing, cool weather tolerant vegetables that make great additions to the fall garden and your dinner plate. Get these vegetables off to a good start with a side dressing of low nitro-gen fertilizer. Incorporate it into the soil prior to planting or sprinkle a nar-row band along the row of plants. This organic nitrogen will provide needed nutrients without damaging the tender seedlings. Extend the harvest season with the help of fl oating row covers. These fab-rics allow air, light and water through while trapping the heat around the plants. No construction is needed; just loosely cover the plants with the fabric, secure the edges with pipes, boards or landscape staples and let the plants pro-

vide the support. So be sure to get a jump on next spring’s garden season with a bit of fall planting now.

Don’t Let The Flu Mean Missing Memorable Moments (NAPSI)—While the cold and fl u sea-son often coincides with holiday celebra-tions and family get-togethers, there are preventative measures that families can take to stay healthy and not miss out. To help you get to the next “can’t miss” life event, consider these top preventative tips: • Get an annual fl u shot. It’s the most effective way to help prevent the spread of infl uenza. For your convenience, you can get a vaccine at any of the more than 7,800 CVS/pharmacy and 900 MinuteClinic lo-cations across the country. The fl u shot is available every day with no appointment needed, including evenings and weekends. As a preventive service under the Af-fordable Care Act, it’s fully covered and available at no cost through most insur-ance plans, including Medicare Part B. The pharmacy can also be a one-stop shop for fl u prevention resources, includ-ing over-the-counter cold and fl u rem-edies, multivitamins and anti-bacterial cleaning products. Plus, anyone enrolled in the ExtraCare Rewards program gets a 20 percent off CVS Shopping Pass upon getting the fl u shot in most places. • Seniors, take extra precaution. There’s a high-dose fl u shot designed for those 65 and older, who have a greater risk of se-vere illness from the fl u. • Plan ahead: the earlier, the better. It

takes up to two weeks for your immunity to build up after getting a fl u shot. The Centers for Disease Control and Preven-tion (CDC) recommends that everyone who is at least 6 months old get a fl u shot as soon as the vaccine is available. • Stay home if you’re ill. While it may seem like a no-brainer, two-thirds of em-ployed Americans would still go to work even if they were feeling ill with fl u-like symptoms. It’s important to understand the preliminary symptoms of the fl u and, if you experience them, to stay home. This will help bolster your immune system and prevent the germs spreading.

• Practice healthy habits. Door handles, desks and other everyday items are ridden with germs. Wash your hands frequently with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds and avoid touching your mouth and eyes. Additionally, eat nutritious foods, drink plenty of water, and get suf-fi cient sleep to keep your immune system in top shape. Lead by example to educate children about these habits.

Keeping Your Joints Healthy

(NAPSI)—Knowing a few facts about the wear and care of your joints can help you take steps to keep them healthy. Healthy joints have cartilage, which acts as a spongy shock absorber on the ends of the bones so they don’t rub against each other. When you don’t have enough carti-lage, you can have pain. To Keep Your Joints Healthy • Exercise. Walking, jogging or swim-ming helps keep muscles strong, and takes the strain off the joints. • A healthy diet and a healthy weight. Carrying extra weight stresses your joints. Eat less fat and sugar, and more fruits and vegetables. • A healthy lifestyle. Get enough sleep and eat a balanced diet.

What To Know About Joint Pain Joint pain often indicates arthritis. Com-mon types are osteoarthritis, gout and rheumatoid arthritis. Other diseases or in-juries can also lead to joint pain. As you age, joint pain becomes more common as well. Fortunately, you can do a lot to feel bet-ter and stay active, even if you have these problems.

How To Feel Better • Exercise, moving all your joints. Walk-ing helps circulation, supports the joints and strengthens the muscles. • If you have a sore joint, you can use an ice pack or a bag of frozen vegetables on the sore spot. • Do your best to maintain a weight that is right for you, since too much weight can make your knees and hips ache. • Speak up. Tell the doctor if your pain is improving or getting worse. Medicines can reduce pain and stiffness, and a doctor will know if joint replacement is an option you should consider.

Joint Replacement Surgery Joint replacement surgery involves re-moving a damaged joint and putting in a new one. It’s usually done by an orthopae-dic surgeon. Sometimes, the surgeon will not remove the whole joint, but will only replace or fi x the damaged parts. The new joint, called a prosthesis, can be made of plastic, metal or ceramic. It may or may not be cemented into place, and your bone will grow into it. New joints generally last at least 10 to 15 years. Learn More: The National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, National Institutes of Health, has free, easy-to-read information in Eng-lish and Spanish about joint health.

Getting The Pain Prescription Right For America’s Seniors-by James Appleby

September is national Pain Aware-ness Month. And one of the major is-sues policymakers, healthcare provid-ers, and average citizens alike need to focus on is how to improve pain man-agement among older Americans. Unsurprisingly, this population expe-riences more pain than younger Ameri-cans. Among active seniors, it’s esti-mated that 25-50 percent experience persistent pain. For these Americans, fi nding ways to manage pain without reducing quality of life is essential. Among seniors residing in nursing homes or receiving in-home hospice

care, as many as 85 percent experience persistent pain. Plus, older Americans account for an outsized shared of American drug consumption. People 65 years and old-er make up just 13 percent of the U.S. population, yet they’re responsible for a full third of all pharmaceutical pur-chases. And seniors rely heavily on opioid-based treatments, which are extremely powerful but come with elevated risks of addiction and abuse. Since 2007, the number of opioid prescriptions for pa-tients aged 60 years or older has jumped by nearly a third. That’s double the rate of growth for middle-aged patients dur-ing that same period. Of course, responsible prescrip-tion drug use – opioid-based based or otherwise – can be transformative for patients, alleviating chronic pain, speeding up post-operative recovery, boosting emotional well-being, and en-hancing cognition. However, opioid drugs can also cause huge, potentially fatal, problems for seniors. Elderly patients tend to be taking other drugs that can interact with opioids and cause adverse side effects. Their physical frailty exacerbates these problems. And opioid overuse can slow post-surgery recovery and speed up cognitive function decline. Abuse also puts senior patients at much higher risk of falls, which can cause serious bone fractures and short-en life. In fact, a 2010 paper in the Ar-chives of Internal Medicine found that Medicare patients using opioids were four times more likely to suffer a frac-ture than enrollees using non-opioid treatments. These risks are a big reason that the Joint Commission, a national non-profi t that certifi es healthcare organizations, specifi cally warns that opioids may not be appropriate for all patients. The Interagency Pain Research Co-ordinating Committee, which is run by the federal Department of Health and Human Services, recently published a comprehensive strategy for improving pain management that includes specifi c steps for helping seniors. Policymakers should heed its recommendations. Avoiding addiction and overdose re-quires careful care management and regular dialogue between doctors and their senior patients. Caregivers need to adopt treatment protocols that can help prevent addic-tion, such as using drugs with the few-

est adverse effects fi rst. Providing non-opioid pain medication before and after surgery can also help. Likewise, caregivers should embrace proven non-opioid pain management alternatives, such as intravenous aceta-minophen and over-the-counter pain-killers like ibuprofen. These medica-tions can be just as effective at reducing patient suffering without running the high risks of addiction. And even non-pharmaceutical pain management tech-niques such as yoga, stretching, mas-sage, or acupuncture can help relive senior suffering. All courses of treatment should begin with an honest and open conversation between patients and their caregivers about how pain affects them, how they are prepared to deal with pain, and how their ideas can be woven into treatment. This month represents the perfect op-portunity for healthcare providers to improve senior pain management. James Appleby is the executive di-rector and CEO of the Gerontological Society of America. This piece origi-nally appeared in The Tampa Tribune.

FAMILY FEATURES

Julie Beall might be a cancer patient, but she’s trulydefined by any number of other titles. She’s a wife andmother, a registered nurse, a real estate professional,an MBA graduate, a small business owner and a public

speaker. She owns a glass art studio. She regularly volun -teers at a medical clinic in Africa.

The 50-something is nowhere near retired, although she isnearing retirement age. And she has a message for people ofher generation and older.

Get annual eye exams. Your life might depend on it.John Lahr, OD, EyeMed Medical Director and a fellow

baby boomer concurs. “The single most important thing anyone 50 years or older

can do for their vision and eye health is to book an annualeye exam,” he said. “Once you pass the 50-year mark, yourrisk for several serious eye diseases increases and the oddsof you requiring vision correction also climbs. What’s more,your optometrist may see signs of a serious physical healthcondi tion you never associated with an eye exam.”

Nobody knows better than Beall. Two years ago she wentfor a routine eye exam near her home outside Dayton, Ohio,not knowing that her life was about to change forever.

“I didn’t really suspect anything was wrong,” Beall said.“Maybe I was getting a little older. I thought I might needreading glasses; maybe my eyes were getting a little tired.”

Beall’s optometrist noticed an area off the side of theretina that looked unusual. After dilating her eyes, he notedwhat he thought was a detaching retina. Considering it anocular emergency, her optometrist referred her to an oph -thalmologist who specialized in retinal diseases. She sawthat doctor later the same day and was told she had choroidalmelanoma, a potentially fatal form of cancer. Doctors treatedJulie with radioactive plaque therapy.

According to Dr. Lahr, Beall’s story of uncovering aserious health concern at the optometrist is not unusual. In addition to preserving eyesight, annual exams can be a window to serious medical conditions like high bloodpressure, diabetes, heart disease and high cholesterol.

“The average optometrist sees 2,500 to 3,000 patientsannually. And it’s not uncommon for there to be hundreds of times each year you have someone in the optometrist’schair who hasn’t had a physical in a while. You take a look at the back of their eye and you see early signs of somethingpotentially serious,” said Dr. Lahr. “More often, eye doctorsrecognize symptoms of serious eye disease when it’s earlyenough to correct the condition or manage long-term vision issues.”

Ironically, for many aging Americans, an annual eye exambecomes harder to access at a time in life when they mostneed to see an eye doctor regularly. According to The VisionCouncil, less than half of Americans age 65 or older havevision benefits. Studies show that this agingpopulation will double to 71.5 million by2030. Regular adult eye health and visioncare is not pro vided through originalMedicare or the Affordable Care Act. Plus,an increasing number of Americans in their50s and early 60s are without access toemployer-sponsored health benefits due toself-employment or circumstances.

This gap sparked an idea from EyeMed,and it began working on an insuranceproduct for AARP members.

“There is a certain segment of the targetpopulation that might just say, ‘Why shouldI get an eye exam every year if I don’t havea vision benefit to help with the costs?’”said Dr. Lahr. “I even talk to people whohave the means to cover vision care costsout-of-pocket and are interested in anindividual vision benefit.”

AARP MyVision Care from EyeMed, thefirst vision plan with features to meet thespecific vision needs of senior consumers,launched in February in California, Illinois,Ohio and New Jersey. For more informationgo to https://aarpmyvisioncare.net/.

Today, Julie Beall has added a new role toher ever-expanding list of titles: eye examadvocate.

“If I could just get everybody in thecountry to get an eye exam,” she saidrecently. “Do it.”

“It may save your life.”

Isn’t vision loss just part of getting older?Worsening vision is an inevitable part of aging, but according to AllAboutVision.com,lifestyle and vision care impact the rate and degree of deterioration.

� If your diet includes zinc, lutein and zeaxanthin, vitamin C, vitamin E andOmega-3 fatty acids you may delay cataracts and control the progress of age-related macular degeneration.

� If you smoke, stop. The odds of developing cataracts and macular degenerationincrease 400% if you’re a smoker.

� Presbyopia, a natural part of the aging process, makes it difficult for you tofocus on close objects. Optometrists can prescribe contact lenses, readingglasses, bifocals or even progressive lenses (no-line multifocals). Lens tech -nology allows you to wear multifocal glasses without the traditional look of multifocals.

� Advancements in lens technology can correct and enhance your vision in waysunimaginable a decade ago. Cataracts can be removed efficiently with accuratefocus outcomes. Glaucoma, in its early stages, can be treated with eyedropsand lasers. Lasik treatment continues to evolve.

Ask the doctorEyeMed Medical DirectorJohn Lahr, OD, answerssome questions about eyeexams for aging patients:

Q: When optometrists lookinto the eye, what are theylooking for?

A: We see important eye structures and signs of glaucoma or cataracts or other diseases. But what’smost important is the ability tosee blood vessels. The bloodvessels tell us importantearly-identification signs fordiabetes, hyper tension andhigh cholesterol — three ofthe most costly diseases weface today.

Q: Aren’t those things that should be picked up byprimary care physicians?

A: Unfortunately, somepeople don’t engage ingeneral healthcare. Theymight only go to a doctor forspecific issues. So they kindof get lost in the system. Istheir medication up to date?Are they doing what they’resupposed to do to be health -ier? Are they monitored?Because many of thesepeople come in annually toget their eyeglass or contactlens pre scription updated, we have opportunities todiagnose them when theymight not be otherwise.

Q: What advances in tech -nology have changed visioncare for older patients?

A: Just look at cataracts.Cataract surgery has gottenvery sophisticated. And theoutcomes have been fan -tastic. You’re taking out a cloudy lens and putting in an artificial lens. And with that lens, you can literallypick your prescription. It’samazing what can be donewith that procedure.
