Doctor formulated vegetarian formula with lutein, zeaxanthin, astaxanthin, meso-zeaxanthin, fucoxanthin and much more now in a vegetarian capsule (vegan friendly)

A number of studies (see below) confirm that supplementing with this combination of carotenoids reduces the risk of onset of macular degeneration.

There are also several visual performance advantages, including increased visual processing speed, contrast sensitivity, and enhancement of many parameters of visual performance in bright light environments.

• Contains all carotenoids for macular health: lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin
• Designed to reduce the risk and progression of Macular Degeneration
• Research-proven results and endorsed by many eye care professionals worldwide
• Proprietary blend: taurine (410mg), grapeseed extract (43mg), black pepper (Piper Nigrum Fruit 95% SE)(8mg)

Study: Zeaxanthin Supplementation Can Improve Visual Acuity for those with Macular Degeneration (2010)
More research substantiating that zeaxanthin supplementation improves condition of pigments in the macula and protects against atrophic early macular deterioration - demonstrating reduced symptoms.

Lutein, Zeaxanthin and AMD (2008)
Another study that determined that more lutein and zeaxanthin in the diet reduces the risk of macular damage. Ref: J.S.L. Tan, J.J. Wang, V. Flood, E. Rochtchina, W. Smith, P. Mitchell. "Dietary Antioxidants and the Long-term Incidence of Age-Related Macular Degeneration: The Blue Mountains Eye Study." Ophthalmology (Elsevier). February 2008, Volume 115, Issue 2, Pages 334-341.

Meso-Zeaxanthin Aids Eyes (2007)
This study suggested that meso-zeaxanthin supplementation supports the density of pigments in the macula -- pigments which protect the eye from the damaging UV and blue light from the sun. (Nutr Metab. 2007;4:12) (DOI:10.1186/1743-7075-4-12). Lutein and zeaxanthin have both been examined in a number of trials that are looking into the mechanics of how these carotenoids can support pigment in the macula and thus perhaps protect against macular deterioration. Meso-zeaxanthin is the third major carotenoid found in macular pigment.

Zeaxanthin Can Reduce Chances of AMD 79% (2006)
This research study determined that there was 50% lowered risk of macular deterioration in both early and late forms of AMD when the patients had high levels of zeaxanthin in their blood plasma. Ref: IOVS, June 2006, Vol. 47, No. 6

Meso-Zeaxanthin Deficiency Confirmed in Macular Degeneration (2003)
This study helped to confirm previous research which indicated the value of the 3 critical carotenoids (lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin) in protecting the health of the macula.
