Summary
Researchers have found that switching from traditional cigarettes to electronic cigarettes may not protect eye health as much as quitting nicotine entirely. In a large study of 179,273 former smokers, those who switched to vapes faced a 7% higher risk of developing major vision-threatening eye diseases than people who quit all nicotine products. The risk of diabetic retinopathy was 24% higher among those who switched. Researchers matched participants by age, sex, health conditions, and lifestyle factors to strengthen the analysis. While the study shows an association rather than proving cause and effect, experts say quitting nicotine completely remains the healthiest option.
