Dr. Arthur Schwartz focuses on eye health this month; free screenings follow

In celebration of Glaucoma Awareness Month, join the Prevention of Blindness Society on Saturday, Jan. 25, at 11 a.m., for a presentation by glaucoma specialist Arthur L. Schwartz, M.D., followed by the option of a glaucoma screening from 12 p.m. to 1:45 p.m. Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, leading to gradual vision loss. This is a great opportunity to lean more about eye health and stay on top of necessary health screenings. More details in the Village News. Space is limited. To register for a screening, call the Village Center at 301-656-2797. Registration is also required for the talk.
