Why Eye Nutrition Matters

Your eyes rely on key vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to function properly and stay healthy over time. Research has shown that certain nutrients may help reduce the risk of conditions like macular degeneration, cataracts, and dry eye.

By optimizing your nutrition and supplement regimen, we can support your tear production, reduce inflammation, and promote long-term ocular health and wellness.

Personalized Recommendations & Key Nutrients for Healthy Eyes

Nutrition isn’t one-size-fits-all. If you’re managing a specific condition like AMD or dry eye, or simply want to stay proactive about your eye health, we’re here to help you choose the right foods and supplements based on your lifestyle and medical history.

We offer evidence-based guidance and may recommend targeted supplements to complement your daily diet. Your eyes deserve the same nutritional attention as the rest of your body.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Found in cold-water fish, like salmon, sardines, and mackerel, omega-3 fatty acids are essential for maintaining a stable tear film and reducing inflammation on the eye surface. They’re especially helpful for patients experiencing symptoms of dry eye, such as burning, stinging, or blurry vision.

At Avon Eye Care, we may recommend quality omega-3 supplements specifically designed to support eye comfort and tear quality, because not all omega-3s are created equal.

Lutein & Zeaxanthin

These powerful carotenoids act as natural filters for blue light and are concentrated in the macula, the part of the retina responsible for central vision. Found in leafy greens like spinach, kale, and collard greens, lutein and zeaxanthin help neutralize harmful oxidative stress.

Regular intake of these nutrients has been linked to a reduced risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of vision loss in older adults.

Vitamin C, E, Zinc, & Copper

This group of nutrients provides antioxidant protection to help maintain the health of the retina and other delicate eye structures. Together, they form the foundation of the AREDS2 formula—an evidence-based supplement often recommended to slow the progression of AMD in patients at risk of developing the condition.

Even if you’re not currently experiencing symptoms, supporting your eyes with these essential nutrients can help preserve vision over time.

We Take Your Eye Health Seriously

A few small changes in your diet or supplement routine can have a big impact over time. At Avon Eye Care, we believe in supporting your eye health from every angle, including what you eat.
