New York, USA, October 5th, 2026, FinanceWire
Holistic Health Labs, a U.S. supplement company focused on eye nutrition, today released its guide to eye nutrition for adults over 50. Adults in this group face a crowded market: hundreds of eye products, wide dose ranges, and claims that can be hard to square with published research. The guide below gives that reader one plain-English starting point.
The Nutrients Holistic Health Labs Highlights for Readers Over 50
Lutein and zeaxanthin. These two carotenoids make up the macular pigment at the center of the retina, and they are the most-studied nutrients in eye nutrition for older adults. The body does not make them, so they must come from food or supplements. Published trials — including the LAMA study, which used Lutemax 2020, a patented marigold extract — have commonly used 10 mg of lutein with 2 mg of zeaxanthin isomers.
Saffron. Clinical research on saffron and aging eyes has typically used 20 mg per day. The guide encourages readers to check whether a product discloses its saffron amount at all — many do not.
Astaxanthin. A carotenoid sourced from algae, studied at 6 mg per day for its role in supporting normal blood flow through the eye’s small vessels.
Anthocyanin berries. Bilberry, blueberry, maqui berry, and black currant supply anthocyanins, the pigments behind their deep color. Research on maqui berry extract and eye comfort has used 30 mg per day of a standardized extract.
How Holistic Health Labs Suggests Reading an Eye Vitamin Label
- Compare the dose on the label with the dose used in the published study — a label can name the right ingredient at a fraction of the studied amount
- Look for standardized extracts and branded ingredients, which can be traced to the research behind them
- Check where the product is manufactured and whether each batch is tested by an independent lab
- Treat any eye vitamin as support alongside regular eye exams, never a substitute for them
“Most people over 50 have never been shown how to compare the dose on a supplement label with the dose that was actually studied,” said a spokesperson for Holistic Health Labs. “Once you know what the research used, the label tells you a lot.”
Study-Matched Doses Identified as the Guide’s Key Takeaway
Applying the guide’s own criteria, the company’s Vision Alive Max is identified as an example of a one-capsule formula whose key doses match those used in published research: 10 mg lutein and 2 mg zeaxanthin isomers from the patented Lutemax 2020, 20 mg saffron, 6 mg astaxanthin, and 30 mg MaquiBright maqui berry extract.
The nutrients discussed in this guide can support normal eye function as part of a healthy lifestyle. They are not treatments for any eye disease, and readers should continue regular eye exams and follow their eye doctor’s advice.
