Nutrition is an important factor in preserving and improving your eyesight. If you have poor vision or are at risk of developing eye and vision problems, eat a healthy diet and plenty of fruits and vegetables. If you already suffer from poor vision, make sure that you eat a balanced diet.
The eyes are very delicate organs that require special care to stay healthy and strong. A balanced diet will give your body the nutrients it needs to maintain good eye health.
Many people do not realize that certain foods can cause harm to their eyes if they are consumed regularly over time. These include:
- Sugary foods such as cakes, pies, cookies, and other baked goods;
- Salt-containing foods such as bacon;
- Fatty foods such as fried chicken or sausage;
- Alcoholic beverages;
- Caffeine-containing beverages such as coffee or tea.
