Description

Discover how ocular nutrition protects vision, fights eye disease, and supports brain health with expert-backed tips from Dr. Rani Banik.


In this special episode of The Eye-Q Podcast, I’m sharing a conversation originally recorded during The Eye Health Summit, where I was interviewed by my colleague, Dr. Deep Parikh. We explored how nutrition plays a vital role in protecting and enhancing vision, from reducing the risk of age-related eye disease to supporting brain health. I broke down the most important nutrients for your eyes, shared my top food and supplement tips, and explained how simple dietary choices can make a powerful difference when it comes to preserving your sight for the long term.


I’m Dr. Rani Banik, a board-certified neuro-ophthalmologist and a passionate advocate for integrative eye care. Through my clinical practice, writing, and public education, I work to bridge the gap between nutritional science and vision health. My mission is to empower you with simple, evidence-based tools to protect your eyesight and enhance your quality of life—one bite at a time.
