We at Sketching House like expert advice like yours on such subjects. I'll make sure Mrs. Ranskinski gets your message! I'm guessing you're an eye doctor, so may I ask you a question? Is there any way to correct chronic dry eye or am I subject to a life of moisture eye drops? I've also had a lazy eye all my life and I wear bifocals to help correct it, but it doesn't help when my prescription runs out when my insurance doesn't cover me. Is there anything I can do to help prevent my eye from going all goofy? Mari Thank you for the comment, Dr Edson! We at Sketching House like expert advice like yours on such subjects.

These types of debilitating eye diseases rob people of vision, and can result in individuals losing their independence. It is believed that the visual system requires up to 25% of the nutrients we take into our bodies in order to stay healthy. Impaired circulation and/or poor absorption of nutrients can significantly contribute to eye disease. There is a great deal of peer review research now showing the vision can be preserved through a proper diet and specific nutritional supplementation. Essential nutrients include lutein, zeaxanthin, omega-3 fatty acids, taurine, gingko biloba, lycopene, vitamin A, E, zinc, copper, selenium for example, that can help both prevent the onset of eye disease such as macular degeneration as well as help preserve vision for those with macular degeneration.
