8 Ways to Protect Your Eyesight

Protecting your eyesight  is one of the most important things you can do to help maintain your quality of life. Some type of sight-threatening eye problem affects one in six adults age 45 and older. And the risk for vision loss only increases with age.
In fact, a recent American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) report estimates that more than 43 million Americans will develop age-related eye diseases by 2020. Since the leading causes of blindness and low vision in the United States are primarily age-related diseases such as macular, degeneration, cataract,  diabetic, retinopathy  and glaucoma, protecting your eyesight as you age is an essential part of your health care.
