It is worth mentioning that research, published earlier this year in the Review of Optometry, supported the administration of low dose niacin to protect against glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness in the UK.

Glaucoma is an eye condition that describes damage to the optic nerve that can pave the way to permanent vision loss if left untreated.
