FOR THE TREATMENT OF MACULAR DEGENERATION
ProMed Eye Health formulated the MACULA 2® ESSENTIALS AREDS 2 PLUS supplement to exceed the standards and findings of the AREDS 2 formula (refer to IMPORTANT BULLETIN: AREDS 2), the Vision Institute of Canada, the LAST Trial (Lutein Antioxidant Supplementation Trial), and Health Canada. Vitamins C, D, and the minerals zinc, copper, and selenium are the essential antioxidant substances that work together to protect the sensitive structures of the eye from oxidation. There exists an epidemic deficiency of Vitamin D, especially for the age group associated with AMD. Lutein and zeaxanthin, the key carotenoids in AREDS 2 eye vitamins, are deposited in the macula (the most sensitive part of the retina) and the eye’s crystalline lens to protect them from damage by ultraviolet and blue light. Flaxseed oil has multiple health benefits, including prevention and control of dry eye syndrome.
