Description
Healthy vision is attained through healthy eyes. So if an individual would like to maintain good eyesight even as they age it is important to practice both good health habits and preventative measures.
Statistical studies
show the following:
17% of Americans ages 45 or older have some
type of vision impairment. The percentage
rises as the individual ages. The American
Academy of Opthamology reports staggering
statistics about loss of vision; every few
seconds someone in the world goes blind
while every minute a child loses their
vision.
