Eating oil-rich fish regularly can help keep eyes bright and healthy. According to a recent study, marine Omega-3 fatty acids can help protect the eyesight of people suffering with age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a condition caused by the deterioration of the retina that causes blurred, fuzzy or distorted vision. Scientists recommend that people suffering with AMD should eat oil-rich fish at least twice a week, while some experts have also suggested that a diet rich in Omega-3 can cut a person’s risk of getting AMD by a third. Fish and shellfish are also known to be rich in retinol – a form of vitamin A that is easily absorbed into the body and helps to boost night vision.
