Visual Eyes from V3S – VitaCube Systems, is one of the few eye health products that has the research supported 6mg of Lutein, as well as Vitamin A, C, and Zinc. After reviewing the ingredients and quality of Visual Eyes, ICON LASIK & Skin Clinic has chosen Visual Eyes as it’s eye health product of choice. The following should help you understand a bit more about eye care and why the Visual Eyes product is so important to promoting better eye health.Visual Eyes has been specifically formulated to help: 
What is Lutein?What is Lutein Lutein is a carotenoid that is naturally found in fruits and green leafy vegetables. How can Lutein help my eyes? Lutein is responsible for filtering out dangerous UV radiation from the sun, if the eye is left unprotected, poor vision develops. How does UV radiation hurt my eyes? UV radiation can penetrate the eye and destroy valuable cells that produce vision and create focus. Where is Lutein found in my eyes? Lutein is found predominantly in the macula of the eye. The macula, which is located at the center of the eye, is filled with cells that produce sharp vision and focus. Can my body produce enough Lutein? No, the human body unfortunately does not produce any Lutein. How much Lutein does my body need? Research has shown that 6mg of Lutein is the amount needed for optimum eye health and overall wellness. Where can I get Lutein? Foods rich in Lutein are green leafy vegetables like spinach and kale. They are also found in foods such as corn, egg yolks, and fruits. However, getting the necessary amount of Lutein (6mg) is often difficult because of the amount of food needed to be consumed (10 to 15lb of broccoli), therefore proper, pure Lutein supplementation is important. What has the research shown for Lutein?
First make sure you are getting the optimal amount, 6mg of Lutein. Many companies will have lesser amounts because of the relatively high price of a good extract of Lutein. Second, make sure you are getting the highest grade extract of Lutein, many companies will fool you into thinking they are giving you more than 6mg (like 20mg) however they are using a lesser grade extract. Thirdly, examine the ingredients listed, not only is Lutein valuable for proper eye health, but numerous research has shown the benefits of Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Zinc, and the Chinese Eyebright Herb. Where can I find good sources of Lutein supplements? Centrum Silver with Lutein - has 250mcg of Lutein - you will need to take 24 per day to get 6mg Optic Care - 350mcg of Lutein - you will need to take 17 per day to get 6mg Visual Eyes by V3S - 6mg of pharmaceutical grade Lutein, also with Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Zinc, Eyebright Herb |  | | |||||||||||||||||
