The Role of Omega-3s in Dry Eye Relief
One of the most beneficial nutrients for eye health is omega-3 fatty acids. Found in cold-water fish like salmon, mackerel, and sardines, omega-3s support tear production and help alleviate symptoms of dry eye.
For those who don’t consume enough of these foods, we offer specially formulated omega-3 supplements designed to nourish your eyes from the inside out.

Protecting Your Eyes from Within
Lutein and zeaxanthin are powerful antioxidants that play a critical role in maintaining healthy vision. These 2 important compounds help protect the eyes from harmful blue light and oxidative stress, which can contribute to age-related eye conditions like macular degeneration.
By incorporating lutein and zeaxanthin into your diet—through foods like spinach, kale, and eggs or with targeted supplements—you can support the health of your retina and lens, keeping your vision clear as you age.
Why Eye Nutrition Matters
Just like any other part of your body, your eyes require the right nutrients to function properly. By nourishing your eyes with the right vitamins, minerals, and supplements, you can help reduce the risk of eye diseases and improve overall eye health.
A healthy diet and eye supplements are essential tools in your vision care plan, from preventing dry eye symptoms to protecting against age-related vision loss.
