Friday, October 7 2022 | 09 h 29 min | News, Press Release
Bausch + Lomb announced the U.S. introduction of enhanced Ocuvite Adult 50+ eye vitamin with 30 micrograms of vitamin D, an antioxidant proven to help support healthy cell function, which is key to protecting eye health. The enhanced Ocuvite vitamin will replace the currently offered Ocuvite Adult 50+.
“Daily stressors, including smart phones, sunlight and screens, can impact the eyes. As people age, the natural filter in the eyes may weaken and leave the eyes more vulnerable to stress,” said Joe Gordon, president, Global Consumer, Surgical and Vision Care, Bausch + Lomb. “The enhanced Ocuvite with vitamin D builds upon our original Ocuvite Adult 50+ vitamin to help replenish key nutrients that help protect the health of the eyes, particularly as people age.”
Many multivitamins do not have all three essential eye health nutrients (lutein, zeaxanthin and omega-3s) in the right levels to properly support eye health. Additionally, 42% of Americans have insufficient levels of vitamin D, which is important for eye health.
