It shouldn’t be a surprise that what you eat affects your health. However, many people don’t take eye health into account when planning their meals. Many nutrients in fruits and vegetables are beneficial for your sight and general eye condition, so you want to include as many of these foods as you can in your daily diet.

Dry, itchy eyes are common, and there are several possible causes for them. These include tear gland dysfunction, environmental conditions, and daily habits. While the end result is typically “dry eye” in all cases, the cause sometimes affects what treatment doctors will recommend.

Glaucoma is a very dangerous condition of the eye that can result in vision loss if it is left untreated.  The progression of the disease cannot be reversed, but it can be slowed and prevented from worsening.  There are several different types of glaucoma, but open angle glaucoma is by far the most common.  Angle closure glaucoma is also important, more due to its severity than its frequency. At the Eye Center of Virginia, we offer glaucoma care.
