Product Description
Eye Vitamin & Mineral Supplement
120 Coated Tablets
Promotes Healthy Eyes™*
Contains all natural Lutein
ICaps® Eye Vitamin & Mineral Supplement Lutein & Zeaxanthin Formula is a safe and effective ocular dietary supplement.
ICaps® Eye Vitamin & Mineral Supplement Lutein & Zeaxanthin Formula is the only major ocular antioxidant supplement that has a delayed release formula. This unique delayed release formula allows the ingredients to dissolve gradually, thereby contributing to greater absorption by the body.
ICaps® Eye Vitamin & Mineral Supplement Lutein & Zeaxanthin Formula is developed by Alcon Laboratories, a world-wide leader in eye care. Each ICaps® tablet is made of high quality ingredients and meets the rigorous quality-control standards of Alcon. Alcon is involved in research studying the positive effects of antioxidants and carotenoids on healthy vision. This ICaps® formula is Alcon's way of providing you with the important ingredients being studied by vision experts today.
ICaps® Eye Vitamin & Mineral Supplement Lutein & Zeaxanthin Formula is a specialized, comprehensive formula of carotenoids, antioxidants and minerals important to vision. Lutein and Zeaxanthin are natural carotenoids that have been shown through structural and clinical studies to be concentrated in the macular segment of the retina. These carotenoids are not produced by the human body, and their accumulation in the eye is dependent on dietary intake. Studies suggest a relationship between these two carotenoids and the maintenance of a normal healthy macula and clarity of the lens of the eye.(1) Zinc is an important mineral found in high concentrations in healthy eyes. Zinc acetate has been proven to be the form of zinc with greatest absorption by the body.(2)

This product HAS reversed early changes of macular degeneration, as demonstrated by a dilated eye exam.
Why take a chance if your Opthamologist says to take them? October 7, 2008

I've been taking this product for a couple of years. My opthamologist said to take THIS...and only this one. My sight is deteriorating, but I'll never know how much worse it might have been if I didn't take these I-Caps. And with Amazon's "Subscribe and Save" plan....it's the best price I can find anywhere...even when using the occasional coupon.

I have been using these vitamins for about two and
a half months, and I love them, I have noticed a
great difference in my vision and I just had an
eye doctor appt last week and my eye doctor
noticed great results as well, I have my husband
on them also and he loves them. we are 44yrs old,
but they are good for any age. I will definitely
continue to use these vitamins and I definitely
recommend them.

My wife uses these under direction of her DR. They cost me $26.00 in the store, I got these much less.
Recommended to me by both my eye doc AND family physician July 20, 2009

My eye doctor recommended I caps a few years ago and, to be honest, I forgot all about the recommendation until I recently asked my physician what he felt the best multi-vitamin was. ( I just turned 43; it seemed a relevant question to revisit!) Because these not only contain all the other vitamins one would want in a multi, but also contain the necessary ingredients to help prevent macular degeneration, apparently, this one was once again the pick. Because of that, and because both of my doctors have no association, it has been my vitamin of choice.
My mother actually had some kind of corneal surgery and now takes these as well...seems to be a well rounded vitamin with even some ingredients that not all multiples have, such as Chromium.
I like that the focus is not only on the healthy body, but vision as well...equally as important.
