Product analysis

39 out of 100

Macular Vision combines EPA and DHA with a mixture of plant pigments. Its omega-3 content is relatively expensive, and missing mixture amounts limit a complete comparison.

AI assessment of the formula, label and price. How scoring works

Nutrient Quality24

The EPA and DHA forms are unspecified, leaving the oil preparation less clear. The plant-pigment mixture names several components, but its comparative quality remains uncertain.

Ingredient Transparency62

EPA and DHA amounts and composition are disclosed, but the plant-pigment mixture lacks a clear amount. Its composition details also remain uncertain, limiting a full serving comparison.

Value For Money15

EPA and DHA are relatively expensive for the active content supplied. Their declared amounts make that comparison possible without relying on total oil weight.

Customer Satisfaction72

Customer feedback is generally positive from a modest review pool. Those ratings describe satisfaction without demonstrating a vision benefit.

Product Focus40

The name suggests a vision-focused formula, but its particular expected benefit cannot be established confidently. The short ingredient list does not resolve uncertainty about how the combination meets that purpose.

Omega-3

Solgar

A more concentrated serving provides 1,008 mg EPA and 756 mg DHA, giving greater omega-3 depth than the original's 75 mg EPA and 50 mg DHA. Mixed tocopherols aid oxidation control, but molecular form, fish source, purification method, and independent testing remain unclear.

Omega-3 Triglyceride Fish Oil 1100 mg

NATURELO Premium Supplements

A more concentrated serving provides 729 mg EPA and 275 mg DHA, giving greater omega-3 depth than the original's 75 mg EPA and 50 mg DHA. Molecular distillation adds some purity assurance, while missing independent testing, fish species, and antioxidant protection leave smaller quality gaps.

83 Performance

Super Omega-3

Life Extension

A more concentrated serving provides 700 mg EPA and 500 mg DHA, giving greater omega-3 depth than the original's 75 mg EPA and 50 mg DHA. The large package provides strong active value, though the four-softgel serving is less convenient and oil-quality documentation remains incomplete.

Purified & Clear Omega 3 Fish Oil 1000 mg

Doctor's Best

A lower recurring cost provides 800 mg EPA and 400 mg DHA, compared with the original's 75 mg EPA and 50 mg DHA. The ethyl-ester form is less readily absorbed than triglyceride oil, and oxidation protection plus independent purity testing are not supplied.

84 Budget

Mega EPA/DHA

Life Extension

A lower recurring cost provides 720 mg EPA and 480 mg DHA, compared with the original's 75 mg EPA and 50 mg DHA. The oil molecular form, fish species, purification, and independent testing remain undisclosed.
