Your eye health is more connected to your plate than you might think. Fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins A, C, and E — as well as nutrients like lutein and zeaxanthin — can help support healthy vision and protect against eye disease. Think colorful:
🍅 Tomatoes
🥕 Carrots
🥬 Leafy greens
🫐 Berries
🌽 Corn

Adding a variety of fresh produce to your meals isn’t just good for your body; it’s a simple, natural way to care for your eyes, too. This month, challenge yourself to “eat the rainbow” and give your vision the nutrients it deserves!
