Aloha! My name is Casandra and I was born in Kentucky and raised on Oahu. I graduated from Maryknoll High School in 2007 and currently am attending UHH with a major in Biology, in the cell and molecular division. I started at Eye Care Hawaii in November 2011 and have really loved the experience. I was contemplating careers in either nursing and pharmacy, but I now realize that those occupations are not right for me. Through my internship at Eye Care Hawaii, combined with my experiences with the optometry club at UHH, I feel that optometry is a career I could love and thoroughly enjoy. After graduating form UHH, I plan to attend optometry school and pursue this passion. Outside of academics and internships, I like to hangout with friends, watch movies, or just relax in my free time.

In observance of this holiday, our office will be closed on Monday, February 20th, 2012. We will reopen on the following day, Tuesday, February 21st, 2012.
Every year on the 3rd Monday of February we celebrate our first presidents birthday, George Washington. This is the first federal holiday to honor an American citizen, the holiday was celebrated on Washington’s actual birthday, February 22. But on January 1, 1971, the federal holiday was shifted to the third Monday in February by the Uniform Monday Holiday Act. This date places it between February 15 and 21, which makes the name “Washington’s Birthday” in some sense a misnomer, since it never lands on Washington’s actual birthday, February 22.
The holiday is also a tribute to the general who created the first military badge of merit for the common soldier. Revived on Washington’s 200th birthday in 1932, the Purple Heart medal (which bears Washington’s image) is awarded to soldiers who are injured in battle. As with Memorial Day and Veterans Day, Washington’s Birthday offers another opportunity to honor the country’s veterans.

From Lilly Pulitzer website:
We find inspiration everywhere. From traveling to Palm Beach, visiting museums, strolling through gardens and hopefully spending days on the beach… the print team is constantly exploring and painting. It is unheard of to have a team of artists on-hand… and that is exactly why we do it! We love our prints and treat them like royalty.
So come in, and see if these are colorful enough for you.

Did you know your eyes can be sunburned? With polarized lenses you can protect your eyes from UV radiation, glare, and haze so your eyes are more comfortable and you can see better.
