I strongly believe that the food we eat can be a form of medicine, as most medicines available to us are often derived from naturally growing plants. Foods good for the eyes are mostly fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables provide many of the antioxidants and minerals needed to help combat the high metabolic and oxidative demands on the retina and eye structures.
For example, sweet potatoes and carrots are often considered the best foods for the eyes because they contain a high amount of vitamin A. Vitamin A is great for helping with night vision and may even play a role in dry eyes. .
Green leafy vegetables also contain high amounts of lutein and zeaxanthin, which are caratonoids that play an essential role in the health of the macula, the central part of the retina that ensures the ability to read accurately as well as sight. color perception. Lutein and zeazanthin also act as natural blue light blockers and help combat oxidative stress and inflammation that can occur within the retina.
Omega 3 fatty acids have also been shown to play a positive role in an eye-healthy diet. Diets rich in omega 3 have been linked to improvements in dry eye, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration.
