We're constantly damaging our eyes without even realising it, through screen exposure, UV radiation, and nutritional deficiencies that silently accumulate over decades. The good news is, the FDA has approved its first-ever dry macular degeneration treatment in 2024, which reduces vision loss risk by 25%. Bonus: I'll also cover innovative therapies, essential nutrition, and lifestyle activities that can boost your eye health and prevent eye problems later on!

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in your body, supporting tissue repair, immune function, and energy production, while also helping protect your eyes from vision loss Research shows your eyes rely on glutamine to fuel photoreceptors, the light-sensing cells in the retina, making it a key nutrient for long-term visual health When glutamine metabolism is disrupted, photoreceptors degenerate rapidly, triggering harmful stress pathways that accelerate retinal thinning and increase the risk of blindness Studies demonstrate that restoring glutamine balance calms cellular stress, preserves retinal thickness, and keeps eye cells alive, offering new strategies for preventing eye disease You can support natural glutamine levels through diet by eating foods such as grass fed beef, wild-caught Alaskan salmon, pastured eggs, raw dairy, spinach, cabbage, beans, and even white rice

She's proud to have helped hundreds of people improve not just their vision, but their overall quality of life—and she's proud to have two Ottawa Valley, in Pembroke and Petawawa, as she is on a mission to make the world a clearer, brighter place—one set of eyes at a time.

We live in a world dominated by screens. From smartphones and tablets to laptops and televisions, screen time has become inescapable. Americans now average 7 to 9 hours of screen exposure daily, and the consequences are taking a toll on our vision - no matter your age. Digital eye strain has reached epidemic proportions, with symptoms of blurred vision, dry eyes, and headaches. More alarmingly, excessive screen use may be fueling a sharp rise in myopia (nearsightedness), particularly in children. Based on these trends, half the world's population is expected to be nearsighted by 2050.Integrative nero-ophthalmologist Dr. Rudrani Banik (Dr. Rani), founder and medical director of EnVision Health NYC visits with Mark Alyn to discuss eye health and to invite listeners to the upcoming free The Eye Health Summit (May 1 - May 7th). The problem goes beyond discomfort. Increased screen exposure strains the eye's focusing system, leads to poor blinking habits, and exposes us to high-energy blue light, which interferes with sleep cycles and may contribute to retinal damage.Nearly 20 million Americans have age-related macular degeneration (AMD), with 1 in 10 adults over 50 showing early signs. Glaucoma, the second leading cause of blindness, affects 3 million Americans, often with no symptoms until severe damage occurs. With cataracts and other sight-threatening diseases on the rise, early detection and preventive care are more critical than ever.The Eye Health Summit, a free, global event taking place on May 1–7 coinciding with National Healthy Vision Month. This summit, hosted by Dr. Rani, will feature more than 35 expert-led discussions on topics from eye strain and ocular nutrition to cutting-edge advancements in eye health.
