Would you believe that the very act of seeing is actually injurious to your health? We see by allowing light to enter our eyes through the lens, where it creates an electromagnetic response on the retina. Our eyes are the only part of the body where blood vessels, nervous tissues, and highly specialized retinal cells are exposed to light. Constant exposure to free radicals, ultraviolet radiation, and other threats from the environment over a lifetime can take their toll on every part of the eye. It is no wonder so many people over 50 have problems with the health of their eyes.
That’s why it’s important to do everything that you can to protect and nourish the whole eye, and with good reason.
Bilberry improves night vision and soothes tired eyes resulting from reading, computer use or driving on long trips. Studies have found that bilberry improves night time visual acuity and recovery from glare – problems often experienced by those over 50.Lutein is a powerful antioxidant that is naturally present in the macula - the central area of the retina - where it helps filter out potentially damaging forms of light. Ironically, just as you need more protection against accumulated free radical damage, the amount of lutein in the retina decreases with age. However, by increasing your intake of lutein through supplementation, you can replenish lutein levels in your retina and maintain clear healthy lenses.But bilberry and lutein alone are not enough. Because each part of the eye has its own vulnerabilities, it’s important to make sure you nourish every part.
