Adorable Video on Eyes, Vision, and Eye Disease

Jul 29, 2013

I think we have found our primary training video for all employees! It is great. You simply MUST watch this amazing educational video about eyes, vision, and eye disease. For one thing, it is adorable! Second, it is quite accurate.

If you have a child who is interested in the eyes and vision, watch this video with them. They will enjoy it, I promise. It covers:

Parts of the eye:

Cornea
Iris
Pupil
Lens
Vitreous Body
Macula
Retina
Optic Nerve

These conditions:

Nearsightedness
Farsightedness
Glaucoma
Macular Degeneration
Diabetic Eye Problems.

It also has cool eye and vision science experiments. And as my friend Ann Z from Little Four Eyes said after watching the video, "All science experiments should involve safety glasses and oreos." I couldn't agree more. :)

This video is part of the Learning is Fun series, created by the Amazing John John and his mom. Think of him as Bill Nye, only cuter and shorter. A very curious and photogenic little guy, he has done videos on everything from magnets to layers of the earth. I've watched a bunch with my kids and they love them. My staff does, too. You can check him out at http://amazingjohnjohn.wordpress.com. He is on Twitter and Facebook, too.

Can't wait to see more from him!

And don't forget! Sunday, August 4th is the Great Glasses Play Day! Tons of activities for kids (and grown-ups!). Free sunglasses (like those above) for all kids!

All the best!
