Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) in Glaucoma: A Review of Clinical Evidence Glaucoma is an eye disease marked by optic nerve damage, often linked to high intraocular pressure (IOP). Standard glaucoma treatments focus on lowering IOP, but researchers are exploring neuroprotective supplements as add-ons. One promising compound is palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), a naturally occurring fatty acid amide with an...
Eye health means the overall condition and proper functioning of your eyes and visual system. It includes clear vision, comfortable eyes, healthy eyelids and tear film, and well-functioning parts like the cornea, lens, retina and optic nerve. When eyes are healthy you can see clearly, judge distances, focus on objects and sense light and color correctly. Many things can affect it, including genetics, aging, infections, injuries, long screen use, chronic diseases such as diabetes, and exposure to bright light or environmental irritants. Common problems include blurry vision, dry or red eyes, glaucoma, cataracts and age-related changes that can reduce sight over time. Eye wellbeing matters because vision affects almost every part of daily life — work, learning, driving and personal safety depend on clear sight. Poor eye condition can cause headaches, reduced independence, accidents and lower quality of life, and some problems are easier to treat the earlier they are found. Regular eye exams help catch changes early and allow treatments that can preserve or improve sight, such as glasses, medications, surgery or lifestyle adjustments. Simple habits also support healthy eyes: wearing sunglasses that block UV rays, limiting continuous screen time, taking breaks to blink and rest, eating a balanced diet rich in leafy greens and omega-3 fats, and controlling blood sugar and blood pressure. Knowing family history and seeking prompt care for pain, sudden vision changes or persistent symptoms can prevent serious harm. With a mix of prevention, awareness and appropriate medical care, most people can maintain good eye function well into older age.
