Preser Visions AREDS 2 Formula MiniGels
Millions trust the most clinically studied eye vitamin brand.
PreserVision AREDS 2 contains the exact nutrient formula recommended by the NEI to help reduce the risk of vision loss progression in patients with moderate-to-advanced AMD.*
The OCUsorb formulation:
- Is clinically-proven to increase bioavailability and absorption of lutein and zeaxanthin
- May help lead to enhanced deposition of lutein and zeaxanthin into the macula.
- May be beneficial for your patients looking for improved absorption of ocular nutritional ingredients.
Enhanced with OCUSorb！
- Same clinically-proven AREDS 2 formula
- 2X better absorption
Through a process called “micronization” the lutein and zeaxanthin particles are made smaller and are suspended in a unique blend of MCT oil (medium chain triglycerides) and other functional oils– including thyme oil, linseed oil, and olive oil.
Suspending lutein and zeaxanthin in the oils allows for 2x better absorption, which was proven in a double-blind clinical study.

FAQs
Can I take PreserVision along with a multivitamin?
Can I take PreserVision along with a multivitamin?
Yes. Nine out of every ten participants in the AREDS2 clinical trial (the trial that the PreserVision AREDS 2 formula is based on) were taking multivitamins along with the AREDS2 formulation. Researchers noted no significant side effects.
If you want to take an AREDS2 formulation eye vitamin and prefer the convenience of taking just one supplement, you can choose PreserVision AREDS 2 Formula with Multivitamin.
Can I take a multivitamin instead of PreserVision?
Can I take a multivitamin instead of PreserVision?
No. The PreserVision AREDS 2 Formula contains the exact nutrient formula recommended by the NEI that was tested and proven in the second Age Related Eye Disease Study, AREDS2. In that study, people who took multivitamins alone did not see the same effects as study participants who took the AREDS2 formulation.
Do I need to take two pills a day?
Do I need to take two pills a day?
It is important to take both doses of PreserVision because some of the nutrients in PreserVision—like zinc and Vitamin C—can't be stored by our bodies. Instead, your body excretes what it doesn’t absorb. Because of this, you need a fresh supply of these vitamins every day. The only way to make sure that you maintain protective levels of all the important nutrients is by taking your PreserVision AREDS 2 Formula supplement twice a day, every day.
Can I get the nutrients that are in PreserVision in my diet, instead?
Can I get the nutrients that are in PreserVision in my diet, instead?
It would be very hard to get the levels of antioxidants and zinc in PreserVision from your diet alone, even if you eat plenty of green leafy vegetables. As we age, we become less able to absorb certain nutrients from the foods we eat. The AREDS2 trial showed that people who got the least amount of lutein and zeaxanthin in their diets benefited the most from high dose supplementation with these nutrients.
Why should I take PreserVision with food?
Why should I take PreserVision with food?
Some of the important nutrients in PreserVision, like lutein and vitamin E, are fat-soluble. That means your body absorbs them more effectively when you take them with a meal that includes a little good fat — for example, vegetable oil. If your stomach is sensitive to any of the nutrients in PreserVision, you may also find that taking your supplement with a meal lessens any sensitivity.
Why is there 80mg of zinc in the PreserVision AREDS 2 Formula?
Why is there 80mg of zinc in the PreserVision AREDS 2 Formula?
During the first AREDS trial, researchers tested four nutrient formulas with different levels of vitamins and minerals: zinc alone, antioxidants alone, a combination of antioxidants plus zinc, and a placebo. At the end of the five-year study, the study participants who took antioxidants plus 80 mg of zinc had the lowest risk of AMD progression to the advanced stage. Based on these findings, the National Eye Institute recommends a vitamin formula that contains 80 mg zinc.
