Vitamins for glaucoma


I have had glaucoma for years. I just saw an ad for eye vitamins. Can these vitamins improve my vision or protect me from further vision loss?

No, that is all BS. These vitamin ads are bogus. There is no vitamin that can reverse or cure glaucoma. We have a health supplement industry that is unregulated and continues to make unsubstantiated claims. The sad part is that it is supported by unscrupulous healthcare workers who are simply interested in scamming desperate patients. 

Unfortunately, we also have a lot of gullible, stupid and/or desperate people who believe this type of crap. If you have glaucoma, go and see a bona fide eye doctor.  If you muck around with glaucoma at home with this vitamin BS, you will end up blind.
