We all spend way too much time staring at screens. Whether it’s for work, gaming, binge-watching, or scrolling through social media, our eyes are constantly exposed to blue light. And if you’ve ever experienced dry eyes, blurry vision, or eye fatigue after a long day on your devices, you’re not alone.

But what if there was a natural way to support your eye health?

A recent double-blind, placebo-controlled study looked at how lutein and zeaxanthin supplementation affects eye health, sleep quality, and attention in people who use screens for more than six hours a day.

Here’s what they did:
70 participants (ages 18-65) were given either 10mg of lutein and 2mg of zeaxanthin daily or a placebo. Researchers tested things like tear production, macular health, visual acuity, and eye fatigue.

The Results:
After six months, the group taking lutein and zeaxanthin saw some pretty impressive benefits:

If you’re spending long hours on screens, supplementing with lutein and zeaxanthin may help reduce eye strain, improve tear production, and support long-term eye health. With screen time only increasing in our daily lives, it’s more important than ever to take care of our eyes. Adding lutein and zeaxanthin to your routine could be a simple way to keep your vision sharp and your eyes feeling fresh-even after a long day in front of the screen.
