Emergency Eye Action Eating for eye health

Introduce lots of vitamin C and colorful carotenoids into your diet. Find vitamin C in strawberries, oranges, and mangoes, carotenoids in orange and dark green colored fruit and vegetables. In studies at a Boston university, such a diet was associated with greatly reduced risk of cataracts in over 50s. Don’t forget sources of vitamin E, calcium and zinc, too, associated in other studies with a significant reduction in risk of age-related macular degeneration, the main cause of blindness post 55.
