Do you know anyone who vapes? It may be damaging their vision. With 18 deaths and more than 1,000 cases of a mysterious lung disease linked to vaping, healthcare professionals are now warning that it may also have adverse effects on your eyes. A study published recently in Optometry and Vision Science found moderate to severe cases of dry eye and lower quality tear film among 21 vapers compared with 21 healthy non-vapers. Doctors believe that the vapor from electronic cigarettes is just as dangerous to your eyes as the smoke from regular cigarettes, which have been shown to heighten the risk of a number of eye conditions, including Age-related Macular Degeneration and Diabetic Retinopathy.
