In the past, little attention was given to nutrition and its role in ocular health. Recent clinical studies suggest that a tailored nutritional plan may play a significant role in preventing or retarding the progression of ocular diseases like age-related macular degeneration (AMD), glaucoma and cataracts. The reasoning behind this clinical approach stems from the susceptibility of transparent ocular tissue (e.g. cornea, lens, aqueous humor and retina) damage due to oxidation. Aging, inflammation, air pollutants, cigarette smoke and sustained light exposure are all potential sources of oxidation. Thus the use of antioxidants, vitamins, trace elements and minerals in the form of nutritional supplements is a proven strategy. Recent studies focused on the effect of daily supplements showed a reduced risk of developing advanced AMD by 28%.
