Even though vision is one of our most-valued senses, we often take our eyesight for granted until problems begin to develop. Many serious eye-related illnesses, ranging from glaucoma to retinitis pigmentosa,are degenerative diseases that progress slowly throughout our lifetime and only reveal themselves later in life. These age-related eye diseases and many other eye conditions can be prevented or improved with proper nutrition and vitamin supplementation. Many of us exercise and try to eat well, and we may even take supplements and drugs to avoid illnesses such as heart disease, but are we doing what we can to keep our eyes healthy?

The Vitamin Cure for Eye Disease, clearly introduces the complex workings of the eye and the illnesses, whether serious or common, that can occur through oxidative stress and poor nutrition. As an experienced researcher Dr. Smith guides us through the current research, explaining how correct vitamin supplementation and good nutrition can stave off or improve our visual health. This book will be an indispensable tool for people seeking therapeutic, natural help for specific eye diseases as well as those wanting to maintain their healthy eyes later in life.
