Vitamins for vision and healthy eyes
There are many causes of vision impairment, most associated with the ageing process. Some of these conditions include Cataracts, Glaucoma and Macular Degeneration.
There is evidence to suggest that Bilberry, Lutein and Vitamin A can support the health of the eyes.
Bilberry is an antioxidant that helps to reduce cell damage caused by free radicals and helps to maintain the healthy function of the retina. The recommended daily dosage of Bilberry is 5-10mg per day.
Lutein is a Carotenoid that is concentrated in the macular area of the retina. It forms a layer of pigment that helps to filter damaging light before it reaches the retina. It’s also an antioxidant that helps to reduce age-related macular degeneration caused by free radicals. The recommended daily dosage of Lutein is 6mg.
Selenium is an antioxidant that helps reduce damage to the cells in the eyes that is caused by free radicals. It’s recommended that a theraputic dose of 26mcg be taken per day.
Vitamin A is essential for vision and night vision in particular. The recommended daily dosage of Vitamin A is 2,500iu.
