Participant: My friends keep suggesting nutritional supplements. Is there any solid evidence that vitamins and minerals help with primary open-angle glaucoma and normal-tension glaucoma? Dr. Elliot Werner: There is some evidence that gingko biloba helps stabilize the optic nerve. There is no other good scientific evidence for any other nutritional supplement, but good nutrition is always a good idea and certainly promotes good health.
