I feel all the vitamins are good as they are essential for the normal healthy body. Its like asking some onw which part of your body do you like. So all the vitamins should be taken in adequate quantities regardless of its action. What do you say?

There is no vitamin or anything else that will help. Once a person's eye sight starts to diminish there is no stopping it, as far as I know. I have been wearing glasses for over 40 years and my eyes got worse every year since I first started wearing them. I am sorry to tell you that as you are trying to find a way, but I don't think there is a way.

What exactly is going on? Cloudy vision, see less distance, what?
What kind of Doctors did you go to? Were any specialists in eye diseases? Did any check you for diabetes? Occular rosacea?
It's hard to know from what you have written.
If you just want to see better, check out the "See Clearly Method" that is pretty good. Take care

Everyone knows that vitamins are essential for your health. But did you know that there are eye vitamins that you are essential for the health of your eyes? This article will talk about the vitamins for eye health that you need to consume. You want to insure that your eyes can see as clear as possible and for a long time. Any human being would obviously want that to happen.
Why are vitamins important for healthy eyes?
There are many eye vitamins on the market which can help improve your vision or maintain good eyesight. Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Lutein are more important in the prevention of cataracts than according to the medical journal of the American Academy of Ophthalmology. These are probably the best eye vitamins on the market right now. Lutein is responsible for filtering out dangerous UV rays. If your eyes are unprotected, then you may lose vision very soon. Some studies have shown that zinc and Vitamin C can help in decreasing the development of macular degeneration.
One vitamin that is essential for eye health is lutein. The human body is completely unable to produce enough lutein to sustain the eye so it is necessary for you to get this vitamin elsewhere. It is believed that your body needs at least 6mg of lutein each day for optimum eye health. Since it is difficult to get enough lutein in your diet through eating healthy foods, it is important to take lutein supplement. You can go through the manual in the package or bottle to make sure it contains the essential amount of lutein.
It is best if you get zinc from foods because it can be dangerous for you to take it through a supplement. Large doses can interfere with your body's absorption of copper. Copper is essential nutrient that your body needs to sustain itself. Therefore you should not disturb the absorption.
There are even vitamins for chronic dry eye. Everyone has experienced dry eye at some point life, but unfortunately, there are some people who suffer from this time and time again. Among the vitamins that are available are flaxseed oil, fish oil, and beta carotene besides other substances like primrose oil, HydroEye, TheraTears, and BioTears. You can talk to your doctor about the possibilities for dry eye relief in the form of vitamins.
What foods contain the vitamins i need?
Lutein is a carotenoid that is found naturally in fruits and leafy green vegetables. Zinc can be found in a lot of foods. Among them are oysters, meat, and liver supply which supply you with lot of mineral. Brewer's yeast, milk, beans, and wheat germ also supply you with zinc, only in smaller amounts.
Vitamin A, on the other hand can be found in several foods. These are the top ten vitamins available:
liver
sweet potatoes
carrots
mangoes
spinach
cantaloupe
dried apricots
milk
egg yolks
mozzarella cheese
There are many foods are rich in Vitamin C as there are in Vitamin A. Sweet potatoes, red ripe tomatoes, kale, and broccoli consist of lot of Vitamin C components. The most notable food of all is oranges. It is full of nutrients than any other foods.
There are several supplements on the marke t today which consists of vitamins to help you improve or maintain your eye health. You might be able to find some of them in your local nutrition store or pharmacy. You can also find them online. Be sure to purchase them from a reputable source.
Supplements should only be used only when diet does not give you the recommended amount of these nutrients. Daily multivitamins usually lack the nutrients which are important to good eye health, and so if you are considering supplements, then you might want to buy one that is made specifically for your eye health or buy each nutrient in an individual supplement. As with other medications, it is important to talk with your doctor before you begin taking any supplement. If you are already taking a multivitamin, you do not want to take too much of one nutrient or another. Getting too much of some nutrients can be a potential danger. So always consult your physician.
Now that you know that eye sight improvement by vitamins is possible, you can st art eating healthy for you vision. There are tons of vitamins to choose from. So it is very important that you make an appointment or talk with your doctor about any eye vitamins. He or she can answer any and all questions about vitamins for eye health. Moreover they will be able to give you the right guidance. Medical advice is always preferable than self medication even if it means deciding your diet for the sake of eye care.
