My Optometrist recently told me my eyes were really starting to go downhill. In fact, they had had gotten much worse over the course of a year. I found that, even with my glasses on I was having major trouble reading my 20 inch computer monitor, even with the letters being as big as they were. Dr. Brown suggested using a new product Visit Viet Nutritional Supplements for Eye Health.Visi Viet designs their eye supplements around both smokers and non-smokers. While I'm not a smoker myself, I will fill everyone in on what I've discovered really quickly: Apparently smoking is not just terrible for your heart, lungs and other internal organs, as most of us lay persons think. Eye health supplements can put you at extreme risk when you raise that cigarette to your lips. Smokers have adverse reactions to Beta Carotene supplementation, so when you use products like Visit Viet Nutritional Supplements for Eye Health, the Beta Carotene factor has to be taken into account. For the smoking formula, Lutein is substituted instead, which is a Beta Carotene derivative. Therefore, you can get Visi Vite Nutritional Supplements for Eye Health in "smokers" and "non-smokers" formulas. Obviously, as stated I don't smoke, so I chose the non-smoking formula with Beta Carotene. At less than $20 a bottle in most cases, the Visi Vite Nutritional Supplements for Eye Health (Non-Smoker) isn't a bad deal if it does what it says it will. Dr. Brown (My Optometrist) says it has nutrients that will definitely help prolong my eyesight. The one thing he said he wished he could have done is get me on this supplement earlier. Apparently in the last 10 years there has been much advancement in naturopathic health care, as the government has put more money toward helping with organic research for common problems. The main deciding factor for Dr. Brown was a recent publication by the National Eye Institute (updated from the original study started in 2001) called the AREDS Research Study. He told me with all the fast food diets out there, we just aren't getting what our eyes need to stay strong. Although men and women are living much longer now, than we did 50 years ago -- our overall health isn't very good. Basically, we are all kept alive with prescription medications and invasive surgeries. So while it looks like we're living long and prospering...we could be doing all that and doing it while being healthy. I guess for someone like me, with good overall health, but really degenerative eye health Visit Viet Nutritional Supplements for Eye Health, is something that's worth trying. Dr. Brown scheduled my next visit in six months, instead of the normal two years and we'll certainly see if the supplementation has had any benefit. It might be a case of too little, too late -- or these pills may just give my eyes the nutrients I've been depriving them of the last 42 years.
