Home Remedies for Poor Sight

Sight is very important to most people, plus, we live in a visual society. So when our eyesight begins to slowly deteriorate and our eyeglasses get thicker, we begin to worry. Of course, there's always laser surgery, but having a laser carve up your eyes scares some people. Luckily, there are some home remedies that can help you maintain and even improve your sight. Here are a few of them.
  1. Vitamin A

    • Vitamin A and thiamine are crucial for good vision, so it shouldn't be surprising that a deficiency of either will hurt your vision. In particular, many eye problems can be traced back to Vitamin A deficiency. Eating foods rich in Vitamin A will help maintain and improve your vision. According to Thrive Online, liver, sweet potatoes, carrots, mangoes and spinach are among the foods with the highest concentration of vitamin A.

    General Diet for Good Eye Health

    • To create a diet that supports your eye health, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as whole-grain cereals such as oatmeal. Also, the more you can avoid high-sugar foods like candy, jellies and mass-produced cookies and cakes, the better your eye health will be.
      In particular, if you focus your efforts on the foods listed below, you will double the benefits of your diet.

    Soybeans

    • Soybeans are high in Vitamin A, so eat them regularly, and preferably in their raw state, to improve your eyesight over time.

    Carrots

    • Carrots are a classic way to improve your eyesight, whether in their fresh or liquid form. Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, which contains Vitamin A, and a good source of other useful vitamins and minerals, including calcium, iron, phosphorus and manganese. So snack on carrots throughout the day and improve your sight.

    Spinach

    • Spinach is another classic eyesight aid, as it is rich in carotenes, as well as amino acids, which can improve your general health. Some studies even suggest that consuming spinach could help reverse some eye conditions.
