Papaya can be eaten in the morning or mid-morning, ideally on an empty stomach or between meals, for better absorption of eye-supporting nutrients (vitamin A precursors, vitamin C, antioxidants). Amount: 1 small bowl (100–150 g), 3–5 times per week Best time: Morning breakfast or mid-morning snack Avoid: Late night (may cause bloating or acidity in some people) Papaya may support eye health and help with dryness and oxidative stress, but it cannot reverse short-sightedness or macular degeneration. Continue a balanced diet and regular eye check-ups. 👀🥭
