More than 13 million people in the U.S. suffer from macular degeneration, and about half of all Americans over the age of 80 have cataracts. Learn to reduce your risk by adapting healthy lifestyle habits:

Reduce your risk for macular degeneration

If you smoke — stop, and if you happen to be overweight, then take action to lose the extra pounds.

Also, wear a broad-brimmed hat and sunglasses that block 100% of UVA/UVB rays when out in the sun. ==>> http://301url.com/SummerShades
From a nutritional standpoint, a large-scale research project conducted by the National Eye Institute has shown that there are several nutrients that help reduce the risk and slow the progression of macular degeneration.

The most important foods for preventing macular degeneration are ones that are rich in zinc, beta carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, lutein and zeaxanthin and omega-3 fats.
Beta carotene-rich foods: carrots, sweet potatoes, kale, cantaloupe, apricots and cherries.
Vitamin C-rich foods: bell peppers, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, oranges, strawberries and kiwis.
Vitamin E-rich foods: wheat germ, almonds, sunflower seeds, flaxseeds, peanut butter and avocados.
Zinc-rich foods: oysters, turkey, pumpkin seeds and chick peas.
Lutein-Zeaxanthin-rich foods: Occur together in spinach, Swiss chard, watercress, corn and persimmons. (Persimmons are eaten fresh or dried, raw or cooked. When eaten fresh the peel is usually cut/peeled off and the fruit is often cut into quarters or eaten whole like an apple. The flesh ranges from firm to mushy and the texture is unique. The flesh is very sweet.)

Omega-3 fats: wild salmon, sardines, Atlantic mackerel and omega-3-fortified eggs.
