Optic-Plus provides vitamins, minerals, antioxidant enzymes, botanical extracts, and key carotenoids to support healthy eye function. As we age, we become susceptible to vision irregularities due to environmental exposure such as Ultra Violet (UV) light, poor lifestyle habits, and dietary inadequacies. Specific nutrients can play an important role in eye health. Some key antioxidants can scavenge free radicals, reducing the risk of oxidative damage to the lens and cornea of the eye. Key carotenoids, particularly lutein and zeaxanthin, protect against oxidative damage and are linked to a reduced risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Lutein and zeaxanthin form the pigment that absorbs the malefic—"blue light." Anthocyanidins in bilberry extract have also been shown to contribute to visual acuity. In addition to the nutrients mentioned above, vitamins C, E, and riboflavin have all been shown to protect against age-related ocular decline, as have important minerals such as zinc and selenium. The role of vitamin A in eye health has long been established. Optic Plus provides these and other important nutrients for ocular (eye) health.
