Lead author Dr Jung Eun Kim previously explained: "Our study is the first to show that grape consumption beneficially impacts eye health in humans, which is very exciting, especially with a growing ageing population.
Last year, the National University of Singapore asked 34 older adults to either consume 46g per day of freeze-dried table grape powder or the same amount of placebo powder in a 16-week clinical trial.
Small portion of one fruit has potential to slash cataracts and glaucoma risk factors 'An apple a day keeps the doctor away' is an old adage you've probably heard countless times.
After taking various measurements every four weeks, data analyses showed a remarkable difference in eye health between those who ate the grape powder and those who didn't.
The eye's antioxidant defence system had generally improved among grape-eaters too, which may be linked to the fruits' rich antioxidant content.
