Nourish Your Eyes From the Inside Out
What you eat can have a meaningful impact on your vision and overall eye health. At Vision Care Centre, we take a whole-health approach to eye care by offering personalized eye nutrition counselling to support healthy eyes, reduce inflammation, and complement your treatment plan.
Whether you’re managing dry eye, an autoimmune condition, or simply looking to protect your long-term vision, our team can help you make informed nutritional choices that support your overall well-being.
Contact us to book your appointment today to learn how nutrition can play a role in healthier eyes.
Why Nutrition Matters
for Your Eye Health
Your eyes rely on essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients to function properly. A balanced diet can help support healthy vision, while poor nutrition may contribute to inflammation and increase the risk of certain eye conditions.
Nutrition is an important part of maintaining healthy eyes and may also support your overall health by promoting healthy blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels.
At Vision Care Centre, we view nutrition as one piece of a personalized care plan designed to support your long-term eye health.
Personalized Nutrition Counselling
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition. During your visit, we take the time to understand your eye health, medical history, lifestyle, and goals before providing personalized recommendations.
Our nutrition counselling may include guidance on:
- Foods that support healthy vision
- Nutrients that promote ocular health
- Managing inflammation through nutrition
- Dietary strategies that complement dry eye treatment
- Nutrition to support overall wellness and healthy aging
Our recommendations are practical, evidence-informed, and tailored to your individual needs.
Nutrition and Dry Eye Management
For many patients, nutrition can be an important part of managing dry eye disease. By addressing underlying inflammation and supporting healthy tear production, nutritional changes may help improve eye comfort and reduce flare-ups.
Nutrition counselling can be incorporated into your personalized dry eye treatment plan alongside other therapies recommended by our team.

Our Testimonials
My family and I have always been impressed with the friendly yet extremely professional service we have enjoyed over the years. The doctors are knowledgeable and personable, the frame selection is excellent (as is the contingent of wonderful staff who are always available with honest opinions and helpful advice!) and the receptionists are fabulous and friendly. The newly renovated space is lovely as well. Well done, everyone!

I have seen Dr. Sebastian and he is the only one to have diagnosed my dry eye syndrome and I have seen others before him and did not catch this. As a result of my dry eyes my prescription was not reading accurately. I am grateful for his patience and extra care he has given me.

My Vision Care experience was absolutely grand. I greatly value all the wonderful people there who looked after me during my visit. Everyone is extremely friendly and highly professional starting right from the time one enters the beautiful place.
The place itself provides a wonderful experience. I value all the professional advice that is given with the greatest care. For me it is a joy to come in on a regular basis and to know I am in good hands. I greatly value the care and guidance given by Dr. Ramesh.

We want to thank you very much for all your hard work that went into Alicia’s Neuro-Visual Therapy. It has opened Alicia’s ability to do so much more both personally and in school, and what means most to us as her parent, we see how confident Alicia is in herself and in her school work. She was always falling down a lot and she always had her head tilted to one side. Now she is focused to get her tasks done on time and the best part, correctly…

When I started the program, I had trouble focusing and sitting and doing my work. Since I started the 36 week program, this has changed. I focused on getting better grades than I did in grade 2 (now in grade 3). I have got A’s in all subjects this year. Now I can sit and do my work, I am able to focus and I am not always looking around the room at other things. I used to need a ruler to read, now I don’t and I can read better and faster than I used to. I am doing great and have learned a lot through this experience.
