Welcome to the first issue of Sage Advice. We hope you take the time to read it, love it and share it. We created Sage Advice after listening and learning from you. It's made with simple snippets of information to help you learn something new. Pass it On! Please share this with everyone you know - caregivers, family, friends - and anyone who is impacted by vision loss who could benefit from this advice. Thank you. ~ Dawn & Sage Vision Super Stars (Kelli, Michael, Lynn, Elijiah, Christina, Deb, Evan, & Macy) PS - Thank you Nancy in Philadelphia (a special client) for getting this idea started...

The Vision has a matte finish monitor for less glare and simple knobs that create physical feedback so a low vision user can feel them move. A Text to Speech Model is now available.

Think Of It This Way... A Heart-Healthy Diet is an Eye-Healthy Diet Vitamin A deficiency is one of the most common causes of blindness in the world. This vitamin is essential for maintaining your eyes' light-sensing cells, or photoreceptors. If you don't consume enough vitamin A, you may experience night blindness, dry eyes, or even more serious conditions, depending on the severity of your deficiency. Vitamin A is only found in animal - derived foods including liver, egg yolks, and dairy products. However, you can also get vitamin A from antioxidant plant compounds called provitamin A carotenoids, found in high amounts in some fruits and vegetables. Provitamin A carotenoids provide around 30% of people's vitamin A requirements. The most efficient of them is beta-carotene, which is found in high amounts in kale, spinach, and carrots.

The Tidbits The most common eye conditions include cataracts, macular degeneration, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy. Risk of developing these diseases depends on age, genetics, chronic diseases, and lifestyle. Thank you to our friends at Healthline.com for this information
