“I recommend blue-blocking glasses to prevent eye damage. You can buy them by clicking here, even in prescription form, or as reading glasses. You can also just have any eyeglass store add a film to any of your existing glasses which will block the blue/green rays. Also, MacuGuard by Life Ext is a good supplement for the pigments that protect us from macular degeneration. Any good multi-vitamin / anti-oxidant formula such as MultiThera is a way to increase protection against oxidative damage which accelerates cataract formation. Another idea if someone wants to get really aggressive is to do the N-Acetyl-Carnosine eye drops for cataract prevention.

The higher the blood sugar, the faster cataracts develop.” – Dr. Farnesi
