Purpose of the Clinical-Educational Project

Ocular Nutrition is the fifth pillar of the Systemic Ophthalmology Network. The focus is on epigenetic modulation (nutritional signals interacting with gene expression), anti-inflammatory strategies, and low-glycemic dietary patterns, aiming to describe literature-documented interactions between systemic metabolism and ocular tissues.

The portal does not propose therapeutic dietary plans or individual clinical protocols. The educational project is curated by ophthalmologists Dr. Alberto Lanfernini and Dr. Annalisa Moscariello.
