Foods and herbs that benefit vision and help to maintain great eye health

Everyone wants healthy eyes, but the problem is that most of us don’t think about how to maintain them in their healthy state until something goes wrong.

​Keep your eyes sharp and healthy by consuming the right kinds of food and herbs, as well as enough sleep, eye exercises and giving them brief breaks throughout the day.
​Eggs are a breakfast staple for most and a good thing at that! One or two eggs a day is excellent for maintaining healthy eyesight since it contains proteins that are essential for eye lenses.

The yolk is also known to prevent eye diseases. Other sources that are rich in protein include beans and nuts.

​Garlic has similar effects on the eyes as eggs and is a superfood that should be included for healthy vision. 
​Since we were children we’ve heard that carrots are great for the eyes and this is definitely a true statement. However, other vegetables and fruits in orange hue are equally as good at protecting and maintaining healthy vision. The beta-carotene found in the orange fruits and vegetables are great for the retina and promote healthy functioning in the eye. Other vegetables that are good for the eyes include broccoli, peppers and brussel sprouts. 
 
Leafy, green vegetables do wonders for our body and our eyes are no exception. These vegetables are typically loaded with beta-carotene, vitamins, zeaxanthin, lutein and other antioxidants. Antioxidants help protect the eye from UV rays and reduce chances of macular degeneration. A great leafy, green vegetable to add to your diet is spinach. 
 
Our eyes benefit from omega-3 fatty acids so load up on oily fish such as salmon, sardines and mackerel to help keep blood vessels in the eye well protected. 
 
Saffron is a herb commonly used in Indian dishes, though it finds its way into a number of western dishes as well. It helps prevent and reduce eye problems like cataracts and promotes vision health. Nighttime vision can be improved with bilberry. Milk thistle is recommended for maintain healthy eyes because it helps support the liver, which is important for the eye to function. 
Gingko stimulates the flow of blood within the eye tissue and has even been found to help cases of glaucoma. It helps protect cells due to its antioxidants.

​Green tea is also rich in antioxidants and helps clean up the effects of free radicals that contribute to ailments such as cataracts and glaucoma.
