Optim-Eyes
Optim-Eyes Vision Support Formula contains a blend of ingredients known to assist the health and wellness of the eyes - Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Beta Carotene (Vitamin A), Lutien, Zinc, Gingko Biloba, N-Acetyl-Cysteine,Bilberry Extract, and Copper. Vitamin C, as ascorbic acid, has been shown (when taken as ascorbic acid) to reduce intraocular (within the eye) pressure, which is useful in cases of glaucoma. Vitamin E is important because lack of blood (and consequently oxygen) flow to the macula and free radical damage to the macula seem to be the primary causes of macular degeneration. Vitamin E neutralizes free radicals. Beta carotene is a natural precursor to vitamin A, which is known to improve night vision. Lutein is a carotenoid of the xanthophyll group (oxygenated carotenoids), and lutein levels are correlated with decreased risk of age-related macular degeneration. Zinc deficiencies can contribute to increased Rapid Dark Adaptation Test values. Ginkgo biloba has been demonstrated to halt the loss of vision in people with macular degeneration by increasing circulation in peripheral arteries. Bilberry extract (also known as European blueberry) is perhaps the single best source of the blue plant pigments known as anthocyanidins. Bilberry seems to target the eye. Its high levels of tannic acid, cinnamic acids, flavonols, anthocyanidins, and isoflavones make it highly beneficial to the eye. Because zinc competes with copper for absorption through the intestines, zinc may precipitate a copper deficiency when supplemented regularly. Therefore it is wise to add copper when taking zinc regularly.

Avoid this one folks!by Kerry Hays
Upon taking this product I noticed no difference over a couple of weeks. However the pills did make me nauseous a number of times. Almost 10-15 minutes after taking the supplement. I believe the Optim-Eyes product is overpriced for what it is, and very unstable.
Was this Review Helpful? Yes No A bit overpricedby Michael L.
Tried this product for 6 weeks and did notice a small difference, particularly with night vision. A bit overpriced. Would recommend getting vitamin E and Beta Carotene separately, instead of paying this price.
Was this Review Helpful? Yes No Use Saline, Not Thisby Kevin Lumpkin
I know a few people who've tried this product as a solution to their dry-eye problems, and they've all been very dissatisfied with their purchase. If there is a way to treat dry eyes in pill form, this doesn't seem to be it. As for myself, when I find myself suffering from dry eye (usually from over-wearing my contacts,) I just reach for my saline solution - not that complicated.

I attempted to use this product after hearing advertisements for similar products on the radio. I am near sited and took these for about three months without change. I recommend eating the foods that contain these vitamins and minerals or using an all encompassing vitamin pack.
Was this Review Helpful? Yes No Not for meby Christine M.
I gave these a try so I would not be so dependent on my glasses. After a little over a month of taking them, I could not see any change at all in my sight.
