Eyewise

Lamberts Eyewise is a clinically-led, one-a-day lutein formula designed to support eye health. Lutein is a carotenoid antioxidant found in the retina of the eye, and it plays a crucial role in maintaining vision and protecting the eyes from damage. Here are the **uses and health benefits** of Eyewise:

### **1. Supports Macular Health**
– **Protects Against Macular Degeneration:** Lutein accumulates in the macula (the central part of the retina) and helps protect against age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of vision loss in older adults.
– **Filters Blue Light:** Lutein acts as a natural filter for harmful blue light from screens and sunlight, reducing oxidative stress on the retina.

### **2. Improves Visual Function**
– **Enhances Contrast Sensitivity:** Lutein supplementation may improve the ability to distinguish objects from their background, especially in low-light conditions.
– **Reduces Glare Sensitivity:** It helps the eyes recover faster from bright light exposure, such as headlights or sunlight.

### **3. Reduces Oxidative Stress**
– **Antioxidant Properties:** Lutein neutralizes free radicals in the eye, preventing oxidative damage that can lead to cataracts and other eye conditions.
– **Supports Retinal Health:** It helps maintain the integrity of retinal cells, promoting long-term eye health.

### **4. May Prevent Cataracts**
– **Lowers Cataract Risk:** Lutein’s antioxidant properties may reduce the risk of cataracts, a clouding of the eye’s lens that can impair vision.

### **5. Supports Overall Eye Comfort**
– **Reduces Eye Strain:** For individuals who spend long hours in front of screens, lutein can help alleviate digital eye strain and dryness.
– **Improves Visual Comfort:** It may help reduce symptoms like blurry vision and discomfort caused by prolonged screen use.

### **6. Benefits for Specific Groups**
– **Older Adults:** Helps protect against age-related vision decline.
– **Digital Device Users:** Supports eye health for those exposed to prolonged screen time.
– **People with Low Dietary Lutein Intake:** Provides a convenient way to ensure adequate lutein levels, especially for those who don’t consume enough lutein-rich foods.

### **Key Ingredients in Eyewise (Typical Formula):**
– **Lutein:** The primary carotenoid that supports macular health.
– **Zeaxanthin:** Often included alongside lutein, it works synergistically to protect the retina and improve visual function.
– **Vitamins and Minerals:** May include vitamins A, C, E, and zinc for additional antioxidant support.
– **Omega-3 Fatty Acids:** Sometimes added to support overall eye health and reduce dryness.

### **Recommended Dosage:**
– Typically, **10–20 mg of lutein** per day is recommended for eye health, often paired with **2 mg of zeaxanthin**.
– Eyewise is formulated as a **one-a-day supplement** for convenience.

### **Dietary Sources of Lutein:**
– Leafy greens (spinach, kale, collard greens)
– Corn, eggs, and orange peppers
– Supplements like Eyewise can help fill dietary gaps.

### **Who Can Benefit from Eye wise?**
– Individuals with a family history of macular degeneration or cataracts.
– People with high screen exposure (e.g., office workers, gamers).
– Older adults looking to protect their vision.
– Those with poor dietary intake of lutein-rich foods.

### **Precautions:**
– **Consult a Doctor:** If you have pre-existing eye conditions or are taking other medications, consult a healthcare provider before starting supplementation.
– **Balanced Diet:** Supplements should complement, not replace, a diet rich in fruits and vegetables.
– **Side Effects:** Lutein is generally safe, but excessive intake may cause temporary yellowing of the skin (carotenodermia).

**Eye wise** is a convenient and effective way to support eye health, particularly for those at risk of age-related vision problems or digital eye strain.

Regular use, combined with a healthy lifestyle, can help maintain optimal vision and protect against long-term eye damage. Always follow the recommended dosage and consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
