Summary

This study aims to find out if changes in blood markers can predict whether exercise helps improve vision. Researchers will compare aerobic exercise to balance training in 14 sedentary adults aged 18 to 89 with vision disorders. The goal is to understand how exercise might protect eyesight, not to test a new treatment.
