Two vitamin deficiencies that can lead to vision loss

Cheese, eggs, oily fish, fortified low-fat spreads, milk and yogurt and liver products are some of the best food sources of vitamin A, as per the NHS.

“You can also get vitamin A by including good sources of beta-carotene in your diet, as the body can convert this into retinol,” the UK health agency adds.

Yellow, red and green (leafy) vegetables, such as spinach, carrots, sweet potatoes and red peppers and yellow fruit, such as mango, papaya and apricots are good sources of beta-carotene.

As far as vitamin B12 is concerned, you can get sufficient amounts of it through animal food products like beef, pork, ham, poultry, lamb, fish (tuna and haddock), seafood like shellfish and crab, dairy products like eggs, milk, cheese and yogurt.
