Healthy Eating and Eye Health
In honor of Save Your Vision Month, celebrated each March, the doctors and staff at Family Eye Care of O’Fallon remind our patients about the importance of healthy eating habits for optimum eye health.
More than 22 million Americans suffer from cataracts and age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the two leading causes of visual loss and blindness. “Because cataracts require costly surgery and treatment options for AMD are currently limited, preventive measures play a particularly important role in maintaining good eye health,” said Dr. Vivian Kloke.
