Black currants significantly benefit vision health, primarily due to their high concentration of anthocyanins, powerful antioxidants that improve blood flow to the eyes, reduce digital eye strain/fatigue, enhance night vision (rhodopsin regeneration), and may help slow glaucoma progression by supporting retinal health and combating oxidative stress. They're especially helpful for screen fatigue, improving symptoms like blurred vision and dry eyes, and helping eyes adapt to darkness. (source Ai)
“Goji berries support vision health by providing high levels of lutein and zeaxanthin, powerful antioxidants that protect the macula from harmful blue light and oxidative damage, potentially slowing or preventing Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of vision loss in seniors, with studies showing increased protective pigments in the eyes after regular consumption.” (source Ai)
Blueberries/Bilberries: These are often considered the best for eye health. They are especially rich in anthocyanins, which protect the retina from oxidative stress and inflammation, strengthen blood vessels in the back of the eyes.
Goji Berries (Wolfberries): Goji berries — rich in zeaxanthin, concentrated in the macula of the eye. Regular consumption can significantly increase the density of protective macular pigments, which filter harmful blue light..
Black Currants: High levels of anthocyanins — delphinidin-3-rutinoside, which helps relax ciliary muscles and can aid in visual accommodation (focusing). They have been shown to promote the regeneration of rhodopsin (a visual pigment), which is crucial for low-light vision.
Blackberries: Help protect the retina and lower the risk of certain ocular diseases.
