National Eye Institute researcher John Paul SanGiovanni, ScD, and colleagues
analyzed dietary data from 4,513 60- to 80-year-old participants in the
Age-Related Eye Disease Study. Those who ate fish more than twice a week
were half as likely to get macular degeneration as those who ate no fish at
all. More than one weekly portion of broiled/baked fish or tuna lowered the
risk by a third.
In a second study, Komal A. Trivedi, MD, of Harvard's Schepens Eye Research
Institute, and colleagues asked whether fish oil protects from dry eye
syndrome. Dry eye syndrome is when a person's eyes don't make enough tears.
This can lead to scarring of the cornea and vision loss. Trivedi's team
analyzed data from 32,470 female health professionals in the huge Women's
Health Study. They found that women whose diets had the most omega-3 fatty
acids -- as measured by how much fish they ate -- were least likely to have
dry eye syndrome. Those whose diets had the most fish oil were less likely
to have dry eye syndrome than those whose diets had the least fish oil.
