Goji berries for eye health

Goji, real name Lycium barbarum L., is a superfruit.

The goji berries contain high levels of lutein and other carotenoids that are good for healthy eye.

In fact, regular use of goji berries can improve night vision, reduces excessive watering of the eyes and delays the onset of cataracts and glaucoma.

The berries also stimulate lubrication of dry, red, or painful eyes, and prevent macular degeneration.
