Optometrists clarify: Are carrots really the best veggie for your eyes?

Besides carrots, spinach is actually the best food for healthy eyes as it has has lutein and zeaxanthin. A diet rich in these substances helps prevent cataracts and age-related macular degeneration, one of the leading causes of loss of vision.

Please consider: even if you have an astigmatism, eating spinach will not make you automatically see better but will ensure better eye health. In the common case of an astigmatism we still recommend our range of toric contact lenses for astigmatism.
