Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible blindness among people 55 and older. As AMD progresses, tiny, fragile blood vessels begin to develop in the retina. These vessels often leak blood and fluids that can cause further damage. Some of the initial signs of macular degeneration may be blurred vision, straight lines appearing crooked Cheap Danny Duffy Jersey , and dark or empty spaces in the central vision.
The macula is in the center of the retina and helps produce sharp vision for reading and seeing clearly. The density of the macular pigment is what protects the retina. Density checks are used to measure the health of the eyes.
Lutein is the predominant antioxidant found in the macula, and science believes it is more important than beta carotene for eye health. Therefore, taking Lutein for your eyes makes a lot of sense. There are other vitamins for macular degeneration that are also very important.

Since the macula receives the most light and is susceptible to blue light damage, it is important to maintain the Lutein levels. Lutein has been proven to filter out blue light. Dietary intake of Lutein from a quality source will increase the density of the pigment, thereby helping to protect the macula.
