Study Links Daylight Saving to Retinal Risks
A recent study reveals that adjusting the clock for daylight saving time increases the risk of retinal eye diseases such as diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration, especially during the month following the change. Conversely, the risk diminishes after returning to standard time in autumn. The researchers explained that circadian rhythm disruption and sleep deprivation affect metabolic processes and the small blood vessels within the retina, leading to increased inflammation and health risks for the eye. The findings highlight the importance of studying the impact of sleep disorders on eye health and may aid in developing preventive strategies.
