Save your vision in a "Curry" ?

I could have also said "Curry up & save your vision!"

oh, the cheesy puns. apologies.

Aussie study says saffron (an ingredient in most curry recipes) improves vision & may help with macular degeneration. I'm skeptical, but just reporting the news!

THE NEXT MIRACLE SPICE


all the time some researcher announces that some herb/spice/vitamin/mineral/etc is the next big thing to save us all from blindness. the "flavor of the week" so to speak haha! i mean maybe this has some merit...we'll see! further studies are needed before we all go start eating Indian food at every meal.

  2. it is unlikely as an adult to fully correct amblyopia to normal 20/20 vision. patching therapy works best in children under 8. it is generally accepted that it either doesnt work at all in adults or has a minimal effect. there are new studies saying patching therapy in adults probably works a little better than was previously thought...but not much.

    so i guess the answer is probably... no dont get your hopes up that your amblyopia can be corrected enough to pass a medical test. i dont know if you will be labeled physically handicapped or not
