Bilberry helps with night vision. It's a relative of the blueberry. The flavanoids in bilberry are very potent antioxidants that help strengthen blood vessels and repair tissue. Dr. Grossman recommends Bilberry macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, or poor night vision patients. Bilberry also helps protect the eyes of those with a lot of exposure to blue light. Ginkgo Biloba protects against high glucose levels and is great for diabetic retinopathy. It's also been shown to be neuroprotective and increase blood circulation in the eyes. Ginkgo is recommended for both glaucoma and cataracts.

Floaters are the small dark shapes that we see "floating" in our eyes. Floaters come in different shapes from squiggles, strands, specks, and more. You might not even notice them unless you are looking for them. Apart from being annoying, floaters aren't all that dangerous. However, if bright flashes of light accompany them, it could signal that something else is wrong, like retinal detachment.
