Did you know what you eat can directly impact your eye health? Eating the right foods can help protect your vision as you age.

Some eye-friendly foods to focus on that can help protect your vision include:

• Carrots: A great source of vitamin A, which your retina needs
• Spinach and kale: High in lutein and zeaxanthin to prevent cataracts and macular degeneration
• Oranges: Packed with vitamin C, an antioxidant that protects blood vessels in the eyes

A healthy diet combined with regular eye exams is not only essential to ensure your eyes stay healthy as you age, but to catch early signs of vision problems.
