Improving Eyesight Without Glasses
- 4 years ago
According to WHO Globally, at least 2.2 billion people have a vision impairment or blindness, of whom at least 1 billion have a vision impairment that could have been prevented or has yet to be addressed. The leading causes of vision impairment are uncorrected refractive errors and cataracts.
We only get one pair of eyes, so it’s important to take good care of them.
What you eat can affect your vision as you age. Add these five foods into your diet to boost your vision.
Spinach - According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), a 100-gram serving of spinach contains 28.1 micrograms of vitamin C, 34 percent of the daily recommendation. Spinach and other dark, leafy greens are rich in two antioxidants stored in the macula—lutein and zeaxanthin. This will help to improve eyesight without glasses.
Tomatoes -Tomatoes are also an excellent source of vitamin C, another vision protector. Tomatoes are a rich source of lycopene, lutein, and beta-carotene. These are powerful antioxidants that have been shown to protect the eyes against light-induced damage, the development of cataracts, and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Eating Tomatoes help to improve eye health and get rid of glasses.
Almonds
-Almonds, like other nuts and seeds, are generally good for eye health. Almonds contain vitamin E. This vitamin guards against unstable molecules that target healthy tissue. Consuming regular amounts of vitamin E can help prevent age-related macular degeneration as well as cataracts.
Carrots -Carrots are antioxidants also rich in vitamins, minerals, and fiber.
Carrots are a rich source of beta carotene and lutein, which are antioxidants that can help prevent eye damage caused by free radicals. Beta carotene gives many red, orange, and yellow plants their coloring. Orange carrots are especially high in beta carotene, which your body converts into vitamin A. Deficiency in vitamin A can lead to night blindness, which is often reversible by supplementing Vitamin A is needed to form rhodopsin, which is the reddish-purple, light-sensitive pigment in your eye cells that helps you see at night
Aloevera -The inner gel of the aloevera plant is an ingredient that has been valued for centuries as the basis of hundreds of medicinal and cosmetic recipes. Rich in water, antioxidants and important vitamins, it’s a powerful ally that has the ability to prevent and fight many diseases.
Moreover, aloevera stimulates the formation of white cells, thus promoting tissue healing. In addition, it also provides a protective effect on the delicate membranes that cover the eyes.
