Although, it seems very obvious that there’s a correlation between eye health and gaming, it hasn’t been on the forefront of research and solutions.

Dr. Amy Czyz and her husband, Dr. Tom Czyz, Optometrists by Day, discovered an opportunity after they weren’t making their own health a priority during the pandemic. This was when they got the idea for SLY, the first of its kind, drink made specifically for gamers. Plus it’s made with the ingredients you need for better sleep and better recovery, which all leads to better eye health.

Dr. Amy joins Megan on this episode of Esports Connected to talk about her journey from seeing over 80,000 patients to discovering a need in the gaming space. And she talks about why she was so passionate about creating this product herself. She also discusses how the Esports Trade Association has been crucial for her in helping build partnerships and create collaborations.
