Research confirms that grapes can resist the damage caused by oxidative stress , protecting the retina 's functions and structures.

In the study, rats were fed grape powder. The results showed that the group with a rich diet of grapes both functioned and retinal structure was significantly protected. Mice in this group maintained retinal thickness, number of photoreceptors and light reception activity, despite high oxidative stress.

While the other group did not eat grapes, the retina was damaged and damaged, there was a significant decrease in thickness. Photosensitive cells decrease by up to 40%, light reception activity is also significantly reduced.
