Thanks for this very intersting article. Over the years, I have kept viligence attention to my eye care with my Optomitrist and Ophthalmologist. At the advise of my Optomitrist, I have used a grapeseed extract for many years and after having cataract surgery, the surgeon advised said everything looked good back of the eye.
