It’s important for me to live my best life – which I truly believe I am doing – and I am so incredibly honored to announce that I have been selected as an O Mag Insider!

I have dry, tired eyes! As someone who works on the computer often, among other devices, I have been struggling with dry eyes for the past year. After doing research, I learned that the blue light from devices like my phone, computer and tablet is most likely the cause.
