How Eggs Heal the Eyes

ADVERTISEMENT

Here’s how the nutrients in eggs contribute to better eye health:

  • Protection Against AMD and Cataracts: The antioxidants lutein and zeaxanthin accumulate in the retina, helping to filter out harmful high-energy light wavelengths and protect the eye from oxidative damage.
  • Enhanced Night Vision: Vitamin A in eggs supports the production of pigments in the retina, which improves night vision and helps prevent conditions like night blindness.
  • Reduced Risk of Dry Eyes: Omega-3 fatty acids in eggs help maintain the eye’s tear film, reducing the symptoms of dry eyes and improving overall eye comfort.
