Learn How to Protect Your Vision From Disease and Illness

I pride myself as an independent person who doesn't rely on anyone or anything to get through life. But after almost losing my eyesight to a virus last year, I realize that I'm not as invincible as I think. My virus damaged the cells in my body, including the cells in my eyes. After a while, things appeared out of focus or blurry. Sometimes, I couldn't see anything at all. My primary physician recommended that I see an optometrist.
