  I can't tell if fish oil can improve eyesight, but using fish oil supplements you a better vision. As we know that fish oil is high in omega-3 fatty acids that contains OHA, an important polyunsaturated fat that forms a basic component of retinal tissue. Besides, omega-3 in fish oil can also support and protect the vision of all ages. Older people us more fish oil can help them against age related macular degeneration, or AMD.
