Pharma Nord’s Bio-Vision is a combination tablet containing micro-nutrients which are essential for maintaining healthy eyes and vision, and for preventing degenerative (age-associated) eye diseases. The preparation contains the following antioxidant substances: vitamin E, vitamin C, beta-carotene and lutein carotenoids, and bilberry-derived flavonoid anthrocyanosides. Tissues constituting the eye (i.e. lens, retina) are vulnerable to damage by free radicals, which are oxidising chemical species generated as toxic by-products of normal cell metabolism, as well as via exposure to ultra violet light. Antioxidant substances present in Bio-Vision protect against such free radical induced damage within the eye. Thus carotenoids, which are responsible for the red and yellow colouration of some fresh fruit and vegetables, have powerful antioxidant properties. Beta-carotene is a precursor of vitamin A, the role of which in night vision is well known. Lutein is a protective component of the macula, the light sensitive central region of the retina involved in vision targeting and colour perception.
