Diet Chart for Retinal Detachment

Retinal detachment is a potentially serious problem during which the retina separates from the underlying tissue.
Although diet cannot reconnect the retina, it plays an important supporting role by:
- Protecting retinal cells from oxidative damage
- Supporting blood circulation to the eyes
- Strengthening retinal nerves and blood vessels
- Aiding healing following laser or surgical treatment
- Reducing risk factors such as diabetes, hypertension, and inflammation
Goals of the Diet
- Provide nutrients required for retinal and optic nerve function
- Reduction of oxidative stress and inflammation
- Improve micro-circulation to the eye tissues
- Support collagen production and tissue repair
- Maintain blood sugar levels and blood pressure
