Green tea strengthens the eye and protects against glaucoma

Reading time: 1 minute

Drinking green tea can strengthen the eyes, and help protect them against diseases such as glaucoma. The tea has the ability to penetrate the tissues of the eye, and can strengthen the lens and retina, a new report has found. Up to now, nobody was sure if the tea could pass from the stomach and into the eye’s tissues, but researcher Chi Pui Pang has discovered that the eye absorbs significant amounts of the tea’s beneficial antioxidants.
