What Is Myopia?
7. Diet and Lifestyle Changes to Improve Myopia
There are some diet and lifestyle changes that can help improve or maintain good eye health. A well-balanced diet can help improve myopia and eye health in general. The diet should include fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins A, and various antioxidants such as carrots, as well as drinking adequate amounts of water.
Lifestyle actions include physical exercise, adequate sleep, protecting your eyes from exposure to excessive amounts of sunlight, and reducing exposure to small and large screens such as mobiles, computers, and TVs. Quitting smoking can also reduce the risk of damaging your eyes, and therefore provide some prevention from myopia.
