These days we have information overload. The internet, and the media in general, are full of it.
In particular, there's no shortage of health advice, what supplements to take, what foods to eat, what not to eat etc. etc.
But how much of it is true ?! What is the point of information that is not based on hard evidence ? It's easy for writers to write, and for people to follow, but it's false - if you follow advice based on no evidence, you're wasting your focus, your time and your hard-earned money.
What we badly need is evidence-based information, so we can adjust our behaviour, diet etc., confident that we're actually achieving the results we seek.
But it needs an expert to assess the evidence, someone who can sift out the 99% hearsay rubbish and bring you the 1% evidence-based hard facts. And we need to see the references to the research or other evidence that proves the effectiveness of whatever is presented.
And that's where this web page comes in. We'll focus (please excuse the pun) on eyes and vision, and bring you the facts with no hype, no hearsay, no myth, free from commercial hard sell.
So you can adjust your lifestyle, eat the correct things, take the correct medications/supplements, do the correct exercises, seek out the correct operations/other treatments, and so on - and you can be confident that you're actually doing the things that will work for you.
So enter your email address at the top of this page, so we can send you our first published report - a concise account of the vitamins and foods PROVEN to reduce the incidence and progression of Age-related Macular Degeneration (the commonest cause of blindness in developed countries), complete with references to the research evidence underpinning the summary. Essential information for everyone - we're all living longer - we desperately NEED our vision to last.
To your lifetime of good vision.
