Eye vitamins

This helps to avoid poor eating habits that could lead to nutrient deficiencies in the long term.

Children’s eyes are still developing. The number of light receptors increases, and different pigments gradually accumulate in the eye. At the same time, the lens of children is still very clear and filters less blue and ultraviolet light than that of adults, resulting in a higher permeability of these potentially harmful wavelengths to the retina.

For the health, development, and maintenance of vision, as well as the sharpness of vision, various factors play a role. One of them is adequate intake of nutrients.

Since our bodies cannot produce vitamins and trace elements on their own, they must be consumed regularly and in sufficient quantities through food. In cases of unbalanced diets, this intake may not always be optimal.

Vitamins A and zinc contribute to the maintenance of normal vision.

Vitamin A also supports the maintenance of mucous membranes, which includes the conjunctiva of the eye.

The trace element zinc contributes to a normal vitamin A metabolism and, together with vitamin E, helps protect cells from oxidative stress.

Lutein is found in plant-based foods (e.g., green vegetables). It is a plant-based carotenoid that belongs to the group of secondary plant substances. The so-called macula of the retina contains a high concentration of lutein. It is located in the center of the retina and has a particularly high density of receptors that respond to light.

The “macula” enables reading, recognizing fine details, and distinguishing colors.

Blueberries are a popular type of berry for human nutrition. They have been gathered and valued for centuries in the forests and moors of Europe. The Doppelherz Eye Vitamins for children provide 30 mg of blueberry extract.
