Our eyes are vital organs. Normal aging, our diet and the environment can have an impact on our visual function. As a part of normal aging, free radicals and intense light radiation can contribute to changes in the membrane structure and function of eye cells, including those of the macula and retina. Nutrition is essential for maintaining ealthy eyes as we age and supplementation with specific, well-researched nutrients can help to support healthy eye function.‡
