There's no magic bullet. Just eat healthy and your eyes will be given the best chance you can. Studies have showed that you're more likely to get a cataract if you have a diet that's low in vitamin C. Carl asks Brianna Fouse what is happening when you're saying better one, better two. Do you ever see a certain temperament that's worse at making that call? No I don't think so.
75% of adult Americans have wonky vision of some kind, your host included. Longtime pal and real-life eye surgeon, Dr. Reid Wainess answers all the questions that you never bring up during appointments. He and Alie chat about how eyes are just little cameras in your skull, glasses vs. contacts, Lasik, why we cry, some boggling ER stories, how marijuana effects eyeballs, floaters, cataracts, eye color, dogs in goggles and more. Also: what happens if you choke under pressure and pick the wrong options in an eye exam? HOW SCREWED ARE YOU?
