Recent studies suggest that garlic supplements can lower intraocular pressure (IOP) in certain individuals, indicating a potential role in glaucoma management. This has led many to question the impact of this common kitchen staple on eye health, particularly for those diagnosed with glaucoma.

Glaucoma affects an estimated 80 million people globally, making it a major cause of irreversible blindness. While traditional treatments focus on lowering intraocular pressure, recent research has explored whether diet, including vitamin A, can help with glaucoma management.
