Eye health is a growing concern owing to increased screen time and digital exposure. Common eye problems include eye strain, dry and red eyes, eye irritation, and watery eyes. Moreover, common eye diseases include Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD), cataract, and glaucoma. Age-related macular degeneration is an eye disease that gets severe over time. The disease does not cause blindness but can cause severe vision-related problems. Some of the major symptoms of eye problems are less clear vision and worse colour perception.
Cataract occurs when the natural lens of eyes become cloudy. Proteins present in the eyes break down and this causes things to look blurry, hazy, or less colourful. Some of the major symptoms of cataract are blurry vision, seeing double objects, and having trouble seeing at night. Glaucoma is an eye disease that damages eye’s optic nerve. Glaucoma is related to the build up of pressure inside the eyes. The increased pressure can cause damage to the optic nerve. If the damage is severe glaucoma can cause permanent vision loss. Some of the major symptoms of glaucoma are redness in eyes, eye pain, and seeing halos around light. Doctors prescribe medicines for eye related diseases, such as cataract, glaucoma, and others, which include ingredients such as lutein and zeaxanthin, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin A, beta-carotene, and bilberry extracts.
