Hello,
As you have stated in the history about elevated intraocular pressure and microaneurysms in retina. These conditions require examination by a ophthalmologist to rule out glaucoma and treatment to reduce intraocular pressure.
These conditions are not related to diet intake hence no supplements will be of help .
Thank you
