INDIVIDUAL HERBS
Bilberry Vaccinium myrtillus - Bilberry has a traditional use in eye problems, including poor vision, and 'night blindness' (the inability to differentiate between objects and colours in poor light). Night blindness, which is related to the absence of visual purple (rhodopsin), is materially improved by the powerful phytochemical antioxidant compounds such as proanthocyanidins and other polyphenolic bioflavonoids.

The role of Bilberry has been extensively researched and its benefits are reported extensively in the European medical press. Bilberry?s effectiveness is due to the presence of anthocyanosides, a group of polyphenolic compounds with strong antioxidant properties. They have a positive effect on the production of visual purple and prevention of free radical damage to the sensitive tissues of the eye.

This formula combines several important antioxidants including the carotenoid Xanthophyll (Lutein), plus Vitamin E, Vitamin C and Zinc.

Eyebright Euphrasia officinalis - Eyebright is an astringent herb which helps to relieve inflamed eyes and eyestrain.1 It assists with visual function and can be used topically for its astringent properties, similar to witch-hazel.

Rosemary Rosmarinus officinalis - Rosemary has powerful antioxidant properties and aids in the maintenance or improvement of general wellbeing. Rosemary is reputed to be beneficial in nervous tension, tension headaches and migraines.1 It has a an historical reputation in helping improve memory; That's Rosemary, that's for remembrance (Hamlet - Shakespeare).

Big Marigold Tagetes erecta - The active component of Big Marigold, Xanthopyhll (Lutein) is a powerful carotenoid antioxidant aid in the maintenance of healthy eyes.

MINERALS
Chromium - Chromium is an essential trace mineral. Its only known activity in the body is as part of the Glucose Tolerance Factor, which stimulates insulin activities and is involved in the metabolism of glucose and the synthesis of protein, both critical factors in maintaining healthy eyes.

Zinc - Very high concentrations of Zinc in the human body are found in the eye, especially the iris and retina. Although the exact mechanisms of its functions are largely unknown, Zinc seems to be involved in the activation of Vitamin A, and thus is a factor in night vision. In addition there is a growing body of evidence which indicates that poor Zinc intake is related to such eye conditions as impaired colour discrimination, cataract formation, and optic neuritis, the inflammation of the optic nerve.1 Patented Optizinc-E is used because of its superior rate of absorption.

VITAMINS AND OTHER COFACTORS
Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) - Riboflavin is essential for healthy eyes. Found in the pigment of the retina, it enables the eyes to adapt to light. B2 deficiency may manifest itself as photophobia, (excessive sensitivity to light resulting in watery, inflamed and bloodshot eyes), blurred vision and eyestrain.1

Nicotinamide (Vitamin B3) - Vitamin B3 is a co-enzyme in several important biochemical functions, particularly those needed to maintain healthy skin, and a properly functioning gastrointestinal tract and nervous system.2

Other Important Nutrients Vitamins C, E and Betacarotene as well as Bioflavonoids, Rutin, and the amino acids Glutamine and Taurine.
