Tea and Risk of Age-Related Cataracts: A Cross-Sectional Study in Zhejiang Province, China.

CONCLUSIONS: Tea ingestion was associated with reduced risk of age-related cataracts. In light of these findings, we suggest that reasonable tea consumption (ie, favoring green tea and consuming an average of over 500 mL per day at moderate concentration) should offer protection against age-related cataracts.
