Eyewise^®, High Strength Lutein & Zeaxanthin

Eyewise® is one of the UK’s strongest lutein supplements as few products contain as much lutein as Eyewise®. However some companies overstate the level of lutein in their product by a factor of two by claiming the weight of the lutein compound rather than the straight lutein.

Lutein is a type of carotenoid that is naturally found in leafy green vegetables where it plays a protective role for the plant, protecting it from excessive sun damage. Amazingly, our bodies use lutein in a similar way, depositing it in the macular of the eye, where it helps to protect the delicate light receptor cells from damage, by filtering out certain harmful wavelengths. Extensive research has shown that eating diets that are low in lutein can result in diminished levels of lutein in the macular. So this is another good reason to eat your greens! And if you want to be sure you're getting enough lutein, you can take it as a supplement.

Eyewise with bilberry extracts may help maintain eye health through antioxidant and vascular effects. * Zinc and vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) contributes to the maintenance of normal vision.
