  Yes, blackcurrant is very good for the eyes. Blackcurrant contains abundant amount of vitamin C, minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and potassium, anthocyanin, and other phenolic substances. It can improve the visual functions for people. There are many lights in the surroundings that can damage the retina because of the forming of reactive oxygen and lipid peroxidation. And the anthocyanin, vitamin C, flavone, and phenolic acids in the blackcurrant are all very good antioxidant bioactivators which can supplement antioxidants for the eyes so as to protect the visual function. The most common way to use blackcurrant to protect your eyes is eating a moderate amount of blackcurrant everyday.
