    Alternatives to laser eye surgery are long sought after and there is much evidence to show that vitamins can help improve eyesight, and reduce dependency on glasses and contact lenses. No one wants to think about what life would be like if they lost their vision. Because laser eye surgery is expensive and can be risky, it’s no surprise that many people look for other vision correction options.Hyoperopia, myopia and astigmatism are common eye diseases caused by poor eye health. In modern society we subject our eyes to computer screens, television screens, direct sunlight, and do not necessarily get enough vitamins and minerals in our diet to protect our eyesight. As hard as we might try to do the right thing, modern living doesn’t make it easy for us. There are really two types of vitamins that could help you to improve your eye health, reduce the risk of loosing your vision and avoid time in the eye hospital. One would be natural based from food, and the other is science based formulations.Naturally occurring vitamins come from the food we eat the drinks we consume. Vitamin A is vital for the surface linings of the eye and is found in carrots, eggs and liver to name a few. Vitamin C is used by the cornea and fights free radicals in the body. Vitamin C is found in many fruits and vegetables with the most well known source being oranges or orange juice, however you can get large amounts of Vitamin C from chili peppers, sweet peppers, kale and parsley. Other vitamins and minerals that have shown to help improve eyesight are B Complex vitamins, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Lutein, DHA, Dicosahexaenoic acid, N-Acetyl Cysteine, Magnesium, Chromium, Selenium and Zinc.Science based vitamins, minerals and antioxidants are also available if you don’t eat enough of the above foods, or you want a supplement. Your ophthalmologist can provide advice on the best vitamins to consume, whether natural sources or from supplements. There is nothing wrong with taking these supplements if it will help your eyesight, as getting the right amount of vitamins and minerals naturally is hard, and they

  • Question by Not gonna be Miss Baldy =(: Do people really need seating arrangements at a wedding? Why can’t the guests just sit where they want?

    @Jenny, if you didn’t have a seating chart, then you could sit with whatever friends or family you had there. Wouldn’t a seating chart be more of a risk of being told to sit next to someone you may not know?

    Answer by PerseA seating plan can be efficient for some weddings, but isn’t necessary for all weddings. For a smaller casual wedding, not necessary at all. Most people want a seating plan so they can make

  • Question by mamaof3inVA: Why are friends who suddenly lose a bunch of weight are REALLY annoying?
    I have a friend who I have known for over a decade now. We were coworkers once and over time, while we moved on in our lives, we’ve stayed in touch due to having children the same age. However, we live about an hour’s drive apart. It used to be that we’d hang out from time to time, but that’s all changed.

    My friend started working out and lost a ton of weight. Which is fine because it’s great to look after your health. I was supportive of that. But her mannerisms now are very aggressive. She is all about going out to clubs and does pole dancing and posts photos of herself in sexy poses. This is a world away

  • Question by One: Is LASIK eye surgery really safe?
    Hello, Just a couple questions. I was reading about the difference between LASIK and PRK and it seems like PRK may be a safer procedure. I am concerned about the risks of Laser eye surgery (such as complications later in life, the cornea flap from the LASIK never healing, dry eyes, loss in visual quality. etc)
    and I was wondering which procedure is better to undergo, LASIK or PRK? Also potential blindness is mentioned, risks etc.. Are these likely? PRK seems safer to me (from what I’ve read..) Can you clear this up? Thank you!
    p.s. I know a consultation would help me get info, but I wanted to ask here first! :)

    Answer by kc_warpaintAssuming that you are relatively healthy, it is my understanding that both procedures can be done with minimal problems. But there are risks, just like with any other surgery. You have to use a good doctor that has experience performing these procedures. If you are a “good candidate” for the surgery, follow-up with the doctor and ask all of your questions there. If you are a “bad candidate” (meaning there could be problems), ask the doctor why you are a “bad candidate”, and discuss your options with him/her and go from there.

    If you are a “bad candidate”, do NOT shop around until you find a doctor that will do the surgery!!!
