PreserVision ()

PreserVision Information:

PreserVision AREDS is a specialized eye health supplement to support and maintain vision, particularly in individuals at risk for age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Developed based on extensive clinical research, PreserVision contains Omega-3, lutein, zeaxanthin, zinc, vitamins C and E, and copper, all of which help protect retinal cells from oxidative damage and slow the progression of AMD. This supplement follows the AREDS (Age-Related Eye Disease Study) and AREDS2 formulations, which studies show reduce the risk of further vision deterioration. PreserVision is available in different formulations, including PreserVision AREDS2 Soft Gels, PreserVision Lutein, and PreserVision Eye Vitamin & Mineral Supplement, which may contain different formulations of vitamins and minerals. While PreserVision is not a cure for AMD, it is an adjunct therapy to help preserve eyesight and maintain overall ocular health. Regular use, as directed by a healthcare provider, may help slow vision loss in high-risk individuals. PreserVision may also help with heart health.

PreserVision Side Effects:

PreserVision may cause side effects like all supplements, though most individuals tolerate it well. Common side effects include:
• Change the colour of stool to green (if your supplement contains iron);
• Constipation, diarrhea;
• Upset stomach or throwing up

These side effects are generally mild and diminish as the body adjusts. However, in rare cases, more serious side effects may occur, including:
• Allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing);
• Black, tarry, or bloody stools;
• Fever;
• Severe stomach pain;
• Throwing up blood or vomit that looks like coffee grounds;
• Agitated stomach or throwing up

If you experience severe or prolonged side effects, discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare provider.

PreserVision Directions:

For best results, follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider or those specified on the product label. General directions for use include:
1. Take with a meal to enhance absorption and reduce stomach discomfort.
2. Swallow capsules or soft gels whole with a full glass of water.
3. Follow the recommended dosage (typically two soft gels or tablets twice daily, but consult the packaging for specifics).
4. Do not exceed the recommended dose, as excessive intake of specific vitamins and minerals may have adverse effects.

For individuals who have difficulty swallowing pills, some formulations of PreserVision come in chewable or powder forms. Store at room temperature (15-25°C) in a dry place. Keep away from heat, moisture, and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children, as high doses of certain minerals (such as zinc) can be harmful in large amounts.

PreserVision Precautions:

Do not take PreserVision if you are allergic to any of its ingredients, including beta-carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin, zinc, copper, or vitamins C and E. Inform your doctor if you have:
• A bleeding disorder, as vitamin E in high doses, may increase bleeding risk.
• A history of smoking, as beta-carotene (in older formulations), may increase lung cancer risk in smokers.
• Kidney disease or a history of kidney stones due to potential complications from high doses of vitamin C and zinc.

Consult your healthcare provider before starting PreserVision if you are pregnant or breastfeeding to discuss any possible risks. Do not use this medication in children without consulting your doctor. Tell your doctor about any medicines, vitamins, or herbal supplements you currently take to reduce the risk of any possible interactions.
