With blue light warnings and digital eye strain still very much in the news, Macushield has reminded practitioners that its supplement contains antioxidants said to help shield the macula against potential free radical and blue light damage.
The once a day Macushield supplement was said to contain three macular carotenoids; lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zexanthin, that acts as antioxidants to neutralise free radicals and filter harmful blue light.
A company spokesperson said: ‘Unfortunately, an average Western diet contains just 1.3 - 3mg of these ingredients combined - an insufficient amount to protect against free radicals and blue light damage.’
