During winter, do your eyes ever feel dry and irritated? Turns out not just skin but your eyes too can suffer from the cold, dry air. They feel gritty and very tired. But by adding the right foods to your diet, you can help protect your eyes from dryness and discomfort throughout the season.

To understand what foods you can add, HT Lifestyle reached out to Dr Sirisha Asmath, Ophthalmologist at Apollo Clinic in Manikonda, who revealed the importance of adopting vital nutrients so that your eyes stay healthy and comfortable during winter. He added, “Nutrition can be a vital supporter of eye comfort and help with dry eye symptoms during the winter months.”

The cold weather, too, can take a toll on your eye comfort. According to Dr Asmath, this happens because “The cold winds, low humidity and central heating all contribute to moisture being removed from the surface of the eye.” This causes teh common complaints of dry, red, irritated, heavy eyes with a sense of grittiness sensation.

The ophthalmologist added,“Some nutrients have been linked to reducing inflammation, supporting the tear film and helping to protect the surface of the eye, which makes them particularly useful in winter.” So, by incorporating these nutrients, from vitamins to healthy fats, into your diet, you can help keep your eyes comfortable, hydrated, and protected throughout the colder months.

Dr Sirisha Asmath shared these nutrients that you can add to your diet:

Other than diet, hydration is also important in safeguarding eye health during winter. Dr Asmath revealed that winter's dry air can cause dehydration even if you don't feel it. He remarked, "Although thirst sensation decreases in winter, dehydration is common due to winter's dry air, which can exacerbate burning, grittiness, and dryness in the eyes.”

Dr Asmath recommended:
