MDS is proud to host ophthalmologist Ken Fong for a talk on healthy diet to help your vision. Dr Fong and his nutritionist wife Goo Chui Hoong are authors of "Food For Your Eyes" cookbook, a bilingual publication to educate readers on prevention of AMD through diet.


This unique recipe-cum-self help book translates the recent scientific research of dietary methods to prevent AMD into simple recipes for the Asian diet. It contains detailed information on common eye conditions and various supplements for the eye. 


In his talk, Dr Fong will tell MDS members more about diet, eye health and his book. The book has been awarded the Gourmand Award for Best Health Cookbook in the World 2012 and will be available for sale at the talk. Click here to read more about Dr Fong and his book.
