Excuse us while we sip from our third cup of the day.

Whether you're an early morning riser, or a night owl, or even at times both, many people enjoy a fresh cup of Joe in the morning, afternoon or, heck, even all day long.

But, according to a New Jersey Newsroom article, those of us enjoying our coffee a little too often might be at greater risk of damaging our eyesight.

According to the article, citing both articles in Medical Daily and Science Daily, a study conducted at Harvard University has determined that people who drink three or more cups of coffee a day have a better chance of developing what is called "exfoliation glaucoma" than those who do not partake.

Alas, such news does not bode well for a place like Freehold, which has several places to get one's coffee fix, including Cafe 360, Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks, Panera and Gloria-Jean's.

Would studies such as this help to steer you away from your daily brew? Or, do they not worry you so much? Let us know below.
