What is MacuShield?
Macular degeneration (AMD) is an eye condition which occurs from blue light damage on the macula – affecting our vision as we age. Although there is no cure for AMD, there are over-the-counter treatments such as MacuShield Capsules which can help.
Macular degeneration is found to be caused by light-induced oxidative damage on our eyes and more specifically the eyes’ macula. These three carotenoids have been found in studies conducted by eye care experts to block blue light from reaching the underlying layers of the retina and so reducing the risk of macular degeneration as we grow older.
MacuShield, amongst other formulas, contains powerful, naturally-occurring nutrients which help to slow down the progression and reduce the risk of AMD. This also includes MacuShield Gold, an advanced formula containing additional vitamins and minerals the body needs to sustain healthy eyes.
What are MacuShield Side Effects?
