Studies have clearly indicated that nutrition is key in maintaining healthy eyes. Just like the rest of
the body, the eyes need the right amounts of certain nutrients to work their best.
Unfortunately, more than 90% of Americans do not eat enough of the proper foods to provide the right amount of nutrition essential to ocular health. Extended periods of dosing with high potency antioxidants along with zinc have proven effective in the prevention of age-related eye disease.
Alcon is committed to fundamental research and product development in the area of ocular nutrition. The goal is always to provide the highest quality products, formulated to reflect the current thinking in the area of ocular nutrition. Alcon is supplying ocular supplements to the AREDS2 study by the National Eye Institute.
Consistent with that commitment to quality, Alcon offers three formulations of ocular vitamins as dietary supplements:
ICaps® vitamins are lactose free. This helps eliminate gastric upset in people with lactose intolerance, which is generally associated with dairy products.
