Natures Benefit Eye Care Naturally - 60 Capsules

Everyone can expect changes in visual acuity with age. Changes occur in the eye and its connected visual apparatus with age, but common causes of loss of good vision include excess pressure in the eye (glaucoma), age-related macula degeneration (AMD) and cateract formation. There are about 13 million Americans with AMD and most of these cases occur in elderly women. The most important single cause of common eye disorders involves oxidative damage to the structures of the eye. The dry form of AMD is caused by a combination of oxidative damage and poor circulation in the retina of the eye (light sensing area). Glaucoma must be excluded as a cause of loss of vision and if left untreated it can lead to blindness. Glaucoma should not be self-diagnosed or self-treated. The use of nutritional supplements to support the structure and function of the eyes has become very popular. Many supplements used for eye care are incomplete in their content of health giving nutrient compounds. Eye Care Naturally contains a comprehensive array of nutrients and botanicals that have major antioxidant functions with examples of specific actions on eye health. Modern medicine has focused attention on the correction of damaged structures in the eye. Far more attention should be paid to the prevention of eye damage by simple, gentle and natural means. Damage to the eyes can be expected in many individuals with diabetes mellitus and evidence exists that damage to the retina or lens of the eye is caused to a major degree by oxidative damage. Given the epidemic of type 2 diabetes and the forerunner disorders of pre-diabetes and metabolic syndrome X, many more individuals should consider nutritional support for eye health at an earlier age. It is never too early or too late to take steps to protect the precious gift of vision.
