Beaver Dam Eye study found that wearing a hat 🤠 and sunglasses 😎 when young and "through he years"
helped protect against retinol problems associated with age-related maculopathy, a type of eye disease
involving the yellow oval spot at the optical center of he retina, or macula.
This condition is the leading cause of vision loss among older people and
may increase with exposure to summer sun.
Previous studies suggest that protective measures also block ultraviolet light
that causes cataracts.
While researchers have yet to discover any highly effective treatment once 🌞 sun-related vision loss occurs,
zinc and antioxidant vitamins C and E appear protective.
Zinc helps bind the protective pigment layers of the retina
to the underlaying tissue and thought to be important in forming
connections between nerve cells
