With the improvement of living standards, people's awareness of health is becoming stronger and stronger. They need to supplement what their bodies lack, but they always forget to take care of the eyes, which have always been known as the "window of the soul.".

In the current era of rapid technological development, our opportunities to access computers, televisions, mobile phones, and other electronic products are gradually increasing. Prolonged use of our eyes can easily lead to various problems.

Related studies have shown that age-related macular degeneration, retinal pigment degeneration, vitreous opacity, glaucoma, cataracts, and other eye diseases are all related to lutein deficiency.

Why can lutein protect the eyes?

Many people know that lutein can protect the eyes, but they are not very clear about why lutein can protect the eyes, which starts with our retina. There are two main types of carotenoids in the macular area of the retina: lutein and its isomer zeaxanthin. Lutein can improve vision and protect the central retina by improving aberration.

Its benefits to the eyes can mainly be reflected in the following three aspects:

1. The main pigment components of the retina

Lutein is the most important pigment in the macular area of the retina, which has a significant protective effect on the macula in the retina. When lacking, it can easily cause macular degeneration and central visual blurring, leading to black shadows and even complete blindness.

2. Protect eyes from light damage

Our eyes are very sensitive to light. Blue light and ultraviolet rays in visible light can directly damage the lens and fundus retina, and "oxidize" tissue cells, producing free radicals and accelerating aging of the human eye. Lutein has antioxidant and anti free radical effects, can absorb harmful light, and protect our visual cells from damage.

3. Help prevent the occurrence of eye diseases

It can prevent the occurrence of age-related macular degeneration, retinal pigment degeneration, and other diseases. In addition, lutein can also protect vision, delay the progression of myopia, effectively alleviate visual fatigue, improve visual blurring, dryness, pain, swelling, and photophobia.

How to supplement lutein?

1. Dietary supplementation

Eat more green leafy vegetables. Lutein is mainly present in green leafy vegetables. The greener the leaves, the higher the content of lutein, such as spinach, cabbage, asparagus, green cauliflower, etc., which are all rich in lutein. In addition, carrots, corn, egg yolks, blueberries, kiwifruit, etc. are also good choices.

2. Taking lutein supplements

There are now products on the market that purify lutein and make it into capsules or oral liquids, which makes intake more direct. Haoshi Brand Lutein Blueberry Grape Seed Vitamin E Soft Capsule is an eye health product that relieves visual fatigue. It is carefully selected from organic wild blueberries in the Greater Khingan Mountains. The content of lutein and anthocyanins is high. Take one capsule and supplement four samples. Except for infants and young children, all age groups can choose according to their needs.
