That is the findings of researchers from the University of Melbourne, Australia.
They analyzed nine studies involving 88,974 subjects, including 3203 patients with age-related macular degeneration.
The result, intake of omega-3 fatty acids is associated with decreased high estimated risk of advanced age-related macular degeneration by 38%.
On the other hand, eating fish twice a week could potentially reduce the risk of advanced age-related macular degeneration and the initial level.
The researchers said the chain omega-3 fatty acids form a layer of cells in the retina of the eye. Cells of the outer retina are continuously regenerated.
Therefore, lack of omega-3 fatty acids can lead to the occurrence of age-related macular degeneration. However, further studies are still needed to strengthen their findings.
