Mango contains lutein, zeaxanthin, and vitamin A, all of which support eye health. Lutein and zeaxanthin are anti oxidants concentrated in the retina.
Lack of dietary vitamin A has been linked to dry eyes and nighttime blindness. Severe deficiencies can cause more serious issues, such as corneal scarring.

Sunlight and spending time out doors has many benefits but it is important to start wearing proper eye protection at an early age to shield your eyes from years of ultraviolet exposure.
Too much exposure to UV light raises your risk of certain eye problems.
"UV radiation, whether from natural sunlight or indoor artificial rays, can damage the eye's surface tissues as well as the cornea and lens," says ophthalmologist Michael Kutryb, MD, a spokesperson for the American Academy of Ophthalmology. "
Here are a few of the eye conditions you can develop from over exposure to UV rays.

Cataracts and eye cancers can take years to develop. Each time you bask in the sun without eye protection, you increase your risk of cataract. People of all ages should take precautions whenever they are outdoors.

Growths on the eye, such as pterygium, can show up in our teens or 20s. Fishermen, farmers and others who spend long hours under the midday sun or near rivers, oceans and mountains are at risk.

We need to wear sunglasses to protect our eyes.
Many sunglasses shoppers forget to check the UV rating before purchasing a pair. Be sure to select sunglasses that provide 100% UV or UV400 protection, or block both UV-A and UV-B rays.
You can also get transition lenses.
