Abstract

Eyes are the most crucial component of our visual system, the eyes depend on micronutrients including vitamins, carotenoids, trace metals, and omega-3 fatty acids to maintain optimal performance and defense against age- mediated and light-induced degenerative diseases. Since the 1980s, the Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet) has gained popularity due to its many health advantages, one of which is improved eye health. In order to reap the greatest health benefits, the MedDiet calls for consuming small amounts of red meat in addition to a diet high in fish, eggs, nuts, legumes, citrus fruits, green vegetables, olives and their derivatives especially olive oil and dairy products in moderation.
