Diet Changes
Having a balanced diet cannot cure glaucoma. However, certain vitamins and nutrients can actually help improve symptoms and your vision. People with glaucoma should add the following foods to their daily meals:
– Berries and citrus fruits are high in vitamin C
– Egg yolks and leafy, green veggies are high in zeaxanthin and lutein. Both of them are potent antioxidants
– Carrots are high in beta-carotene, an important element for proper eye function
– Fatty fish is high in omega-3 fatty acids and DHA, two important elements for eye health
– Almonds contain vitamin E, another antioxidant [4]
