There are several vitamins and nutrients crucial for eye health.
Here are the most important ones:
Vitamin A: Vitamin A plays a vital role in maintaining the health of the retina (the thin layer of tissue at the back of the eye containing light-sensitive cells) and helps improve vision in low-light conditions. Foods rich in vitamin A include carrots, sweet potatoes, leafy green vegetables, and liver.
Vitamin C: Vitamin C strengthens blood vessels in the eyes and protects them from damage caused by ultraviolet rays. Rich sources of vitamin C include oranges, lemons, strawberries, and leafy greens.
Vitamin E: Vitamin E is an antioxidant that helps protect the eyes from damage caused by free radicals. Foods like almonds, hazelnuts, and sunflower oil provide vitamin E for the body.
Zinc: Zinc plays a crucial role in the activity of enzymes related to vision. A deficiency in zinc can lead to vision problems. Foods high in zinc include pumpkin seeds, meat, seafood, and dairy products.
Beta-carotene: Beta-carotene is a pro-vitamin A, meaning it is converted into vitamin A in the body. It enhances the eye's resistance to the impact of UV rays. Foods containing beta-carotene include carrots, sweet potatoes, oranges, and strawberries.
Omega-3: Omega-3 fatty acids such as EPA and DHA can protect the eyes from vascular diseases and improve macular health. Rich sources of omega-3 include salmon, mackerel, and fish oil.
To maintain optimal eye health, it's essential to maintain a balanced and varied diet, including foods rich in vitamins and essential nutrients for the eyes.
