What Diet Is To Be Followed For Improving Vision Of A 7 Year Old Child And Should Glasses Be Worn After The Prescribed Duration?

My child is 7 yrs old. She has power of around 1 at both the eyes. She is wearing glasses. Dr said that she could wear it for 6 months and lets see the improvement as her nerves at the eyes are good. Should we want to continue to wear glasses. What food should we give her to improve her vision

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Foods rich in vitamin A like carrots,papaya,green leafy vegetables should be given.
Regarding wearing glasses vision needs to be checked again and in case improved no need to wear.
For this get her examined by eye specialist.
Hope this helps.
God bless..
