Most of us find our eyesight gets weaker with age. Some of us were born with weak eyesight. We are told that there is nothing that can be done about it; that it is a natural part of aging. Rather than having the underlying condition treated and reversed, we are basically told to put up with it and wear an appliance (eyeglasses or contacts) to compensate for the problem. If you had a sore leg, would you allow your doctor to put you in a cast and have you hobble around on crutches the rest of your life? Yet, this is typically how we address problems with our vision.

Many vision disorders can be traced back in part to nutritional deficiencies, and there are several nutrients that can help your eyes. Ultra Botanicals has developed a formula of the best of those nutrients at the most effective doses, containing the following ingredients:

Bilberry (160 mg. of a 25% anthocyanosides extract)
An herb commonly used in Europe to treat macular degeneration. It has long been associated with improving eyesight, particularly in stopping the growth of and even reversing cataracts.

Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), 10 mg.
Deficiency of vitamin B2 in animals has been linked to the growth of cataracts.

Zinc, 15 mg.
Necessary for normal vision and adaptation to the dark. Supplementation has reduced the loss of vision brought about by macular degeneration. Its deficiency may also lead to cataracts. Ultra Vision Support contains one of the most bioavailable forms, zinc citrate.

Vitamin A, 3000 IU
Vitamin A helps to maintain healthy rods and cones, the parts of the retina that are responsible for communicating images to the brain.

N Acetyl Cysteine, 200 mg.
Another powerful antioxidant that may help prevent degenerative changes in the eyes.

Taurine, 300 mg.
An amino acid that seems to protect the eyes from damage from ultraviolet radiation.

Quercetin, 100 mg.
An important bioflavonoid that helps with visual acuity, night vision, adaptation to the dark, and improving the integrity of the capillaries in the eyes.

Alpha Lipoic Acid, 50 mg.
The universal antioxidant, useful for its antioxidant properties in fighting free radicals, often recommended for cataracts.

Lutein, 20 mg.
A caratanoid found in spinach, collard greens, and kale; generally one of the first natural compounds recommended for the treatment of macular degeneration.

Bioperine, 4 mg.
Bioperine enhances absorption of nutrients taken in its presence by as much as 60%, according to recent studies.
