Fruit for Vision guide

Researchers from the University of Liverpool claim that the onset of age-related macular degeneration could be reduced by up to 20 per cent by increasing the intake of fruit, vegetables and nuts in the diet.

To help patientsadopt a healthy diet, Professor Ian Grierson, head of ophthalmology at the University, has produced a cooking guide called Fruit for Vision, designed to add fruit and vegetables into everyday meals.

'If we can improve the kind of food that we eat, we could dramatically reduce the number of people who may suffer from eyes diseases in the future,' said Professor Grierson.

Fruit for Vision is published by Indigo Creative Marketing in conjunction with the Macular Diseases Society.
