Other interventionThe acquisition of personal and clinical information and the data obtained from the questionnaires will be carried out in conjunction with the usual control visits planned as part of normal clinical practice
Average Nutritional Knowledge Score (NK)
Studies often show average scores around 50-60% of correct answers. Knowledge is often measured as a percentage of a total possible score, with a 75% threshold sometimes used to define "basic" or "good" knowledge.
Mediterranean Diet Adherence (AMD) value
High Mediterranean Diet Adherence (AMD) is strongly linked to a reduced risk of developing and progressing to advanced Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), with studies showing 34% to 60% lower risk compared to low adherence. A diet rich in vegetables, fruits, and nuts significantly lowers this risk.
