What Foods Improve Vision?
 
  Did you know that improving your eyesight can be as easy as improving your grocery shopping list?

Research has proven that there are several types of food that can help sharpen your day and night vision, keep your eyes well-lubricated, protect you from glaucoma and macular degeneration, and prevent the development of cataracts.

Here are some of the most highly recommended foods to add to your weekly menus to improve your eyesight:

  • Salmon and other cold-water fish, like tuna, cod and sardines
  • Spinach, kale and other leafy green vegetables
  • Orange/re vegetables with beta-carotene, like carrots, tomatoes and yellow squash
  • Garlic and onions
  • Blueberries
  • Wine
  • Dark chocolate
  • Eggs
  • Nuts

Stocking up on these foods can help give you that extra bit of protection for better eye health, especially once you turn 40 and become more susceptible to eye disease.

Of course, the most important things you can do for your eyes is to schedule regular eye exams. Plus, you can discuss with your eye doctor other options for improving your vision, such as LASIK vision correction surgery.
If you live in Charlotte, North Carolina and have questions about LASIK or eye care, please contact the LASIK doctors at Horizon Eye Care at (704) 405-4123.
