A nutritious diet is essential for healthy eyes. Many foods can maintain vision and prevent certain eye diseases. Eating foods rich in vitamins and minerals can also reduce chronic dry eye symptoms.

Antioxidant-rich fruits like blueberries contain anthocyanins, which can protect the eyes and improve vision. Citrus fruits like oranges, grapefruits, and lemons are packed with water and the antioxidant vitamin C, which are beneficial for eye health.

Almonds are rich in vitamin E, which can help improve overall eye health. Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant that plays a role in improving the stability of the tear film.

Fatty fish like salmon and sardines contain omega-3 fatty acids, which can reduce inflammation, dryness, and eye fatigue. Mackerel is also a rich source of vitamin D, which contributes to preventing macular degeneration, an eye disease that can lead to vision loss.

Beans, such as kidney beans and lima beans, contain zinc, which protects the eyes from bright light and strengthens retinal health. Eating beans along with seeds like flax seeds also provides omega-3 fatty acids, promoting better eye health.

Eggs contain most of the essential daily nutrients, including vitamins A, C, E, lutein, zeaxanthin, and zinc. Zinc helps the body absorb vitamin A from the liver, enhancing sharp vision.
