Pure Ascorbic Acid

Powerful antioxidant support for lens health and vascular integrity

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant and coenzyme throughout the body, including the eyes. Vitamin C levels are generally 10-50 times higher in the eyes than the plasma, although it diminishes naturally with age. This water-soluble compound enhances healthy vision by supporting glutathione activity, quenching superoxide molecules, and promoting healthy blood flow. A number of studies have indicated vitamin C to be particularly protective of the eye lens, promoting visual clarity. One study reported that vitamin C may moderate aldose reductase activity, maintaining healthy ocular sorbitol production . Optimal vascular and capillary integrity are dependant on vitamin C and its role in collagen and glycosaminoglycan (GAG) production. A clinical trial suggested that vitamin C supported healthy intraocular flow and comfort.*

Vitamin C provides an essential component for optimal lens longevity and vascular circulation.*
