Understanding Digital Eye Strain and the Role of Lutein
In today's digital age, many of us are glued to screens—whether for work, entertainment, or staying connected. This prolonged screen time often leads to digital eye strain, manifesting as blurry vision, difficulty focusing, dry or watery eyes, light sensitivity, and headaches. (Source: aoa.org)
The Protective Power of Lutein
Lutein is a carotenoid with anti-inflammatory properties. Research indicates that lutein offers several benefits, particularly for eye health. Notably, it can improve or even prevent age-related macular disease, a leading cause of blindness and vision impairment. (Source: webmd.com)
Incorporating Lutein into Your Routine
While lutein is present in foods like leafy greens, corn, eggs, and pistachios, many people don't consume enough through diet alone. The average American intake is only 1-2 milligrams daily, whereas the recommended dose is 10 milligrams. An easy solution? A supplement specifically formulated to support optimal eye health, especially if you spend significant time in front of screens. (Source: health.com)

Each serving delivers 20mg of lutein esters, 56mg of blueberry powder, and 30mg of Vitamin C to support retina health, visual clarity, and help combat eye strain from screen time. Plus, they come in a delicious blueberry flavor with a hint of orange, making them a tasty addition to your daily routine.
