Bilberry is widely used for ophthalmologic applications, including poor day and night vision, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration. The anthocyanidins have a very strong affinity for the pigmented epithelium of the retina that composes the optical or functional portion of the retina where they reinforce the collagen structures of the retina and prevent free radical damage.

Frequently asked questions:

Q. What are bioflavonoids?

A. Bioflavonoids are the plant pigments that are responsible for giving flowers and fruits their distinctive colours. Bilberries contain high levels of anthocyanosides which are responsible for the deep blue pigment colour of Bilberry.

Q What is an antioxidant?

A. Antioxidants are naturally occurring nutrients that neutralise free radicals in the body which are responsible for tissue damage due to oxidative stress.

Q Why is eyesight so susceptible to oxidative stress?

A. Good eyesight is dependent on the health of a delicate tissue at the back of the eye called the retina. Blood flow to the retina is a vital source of nutrients, but the tiny capillaries in the retina are easily damaged by toxins, eye strain, and poor health.

Q. How do the herbal ingredients help?

A. The bioflavonoids in Bilberry are potent antioxidants. Xangold (Lutein) is derived from marigold flowers and contains carotenoids (also bioflavonoids) that nourish the retina. Eye Bright is an extract of the herb Euphrasia Officinalis traditionally used to reduce eye irritation.

Eye sight improvement

I purchased Bilberry in the hope it would clear the fuzz from my eyes in the mornings.
This has definitely made a difference to the clarity of my vision and I will be purchasing them again.

Bilberry

My husband & I are in our mid 60s and have been taking the bilberry for quite sometime. Recently we went for our eye check - our eyes condition remain healthy and no increase in our reading degrees or need to change our glasses. Cannot verify if this is due to Bilberry but will definitely continue to take them
