Coffee, Eyesight, Health Tip

According to the Cornell scientists, coffee consists of 7 percent to 9 percent chlorogenic acid, a natural chemical that may keep your eyesight from deteriorating and prevent blindness from retinal damage, glaucoma, diabetes and aging. The retina is on the back wall of the eye. It contains millions of cells that receive light and transfers the information to nerve cells.
