5 daily eye care habits every person with type 1 and type 2 Diabetes should follow

While supplements are suggested, the simplest change is filling the plate with foods rich in lutein, zeaxanthin, and omega-3 fatty acids. Seasonal greens like spinach, mustard leaves (sarson ka saag), and amaranth are powerful protectors of the retina.

These everyday foods act as a natural shield against diabetic eye complications.
