Even without bad habits, vision begins to deteriorate over the years, so it is necessary to maintain eye health in every possible way.

The environment, genetics, and not the healthiest diet are to blame for this.

For a long time it was believed that blueberries help vision, but it turned out that this is not entirely true.

The publication “Khibiny” reports on what you need to eat, citing general practitioner Maria Alekseeva.

The expert recommends including foods containing beta-carotene in your diet.

The norm is considered to be 5 mg of the substance per day, and it is not necessary to take dietary supplements for this.

Those who want to improve their vision this summer should pay attention to berries.

It is believed that the largest amount of beta-carotene is found in sea buckthorn berries.

In total, 100 grams of berries contain 7 mg of the specified substance.

You should also eat rose hips – they are in second place in terms of beta-carotene content.

This substance is also found in wild garlic and rowan.

By bringing the level of beta-carotene to normal, you can get rid of dry eyes, increased lacrimation, normalize the functioning of the retina and restore vision.
