Absolutely there is a connection between food and eye health. I have had dry AMD for over a dozen years. My eye surgeon told me right off the bat to eat as much green leafy vegetables as possible. He said I could try eye vitamins but didn’t seem too enthusiastic about their efficacy.

All these years later, the progression has been minimal and I do attribute it to eating healthy. Whatever you eat affects every organ in your body. I do take an eye vitamin but am not sure if it helps…it’s just an extra step for me.

So every day I make sure I eat a green veggie and fruit. I feel great at 83…still drive….use driving glasses for distance and have regular eye checkups. I am currently getting injections for macular edema in one eye which is almost gone and had cataract surgery in 2009. So I do see my eye doc regularly.

Happy New Year
