A comprehensive eye health formula with Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Bilberry, and Astaxanthin, but at a premium price point.
Swanson EyesAlive Vision Nutrition is designed to be a comprehensive eye support supplement. It features a robust 20mg of Lutein from Marigold flower extract, 4mg of OmniXan Zeaxanthin (from Paprika), and 4mg of Astaxanthin, alongside a significant 320mg of Bilberry extract (standardized for Anthocyanins). This combination supports various aspects of vision, from macular health to night vision and antioxidant protection. However, at $1.02 per serving, it is one of the more expensive options for this type of blend, impacting its overall value despite the quality ingredients.
- Comprehensive blend of eye-supporting nutrients: Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Bilberry, and Astaxanthin.
- High dose of Lutein (20mg) is beneficial for macular health.
- Includes Bilberry extract, known for supporting night vision and circulation.
- Very high price per serving, making it less accessible compared to similar formulations.
- Astaxanthin dosage (4mg) is relatively low for the overall cost.
- None specific to this product beyond general supplement considerations.

| Ingredient | Amount per serving |
|---|---|
| Bilberry extract (Anthocyanins) | 320 mg |

Categories
Astaxanthin 70.0
Within the Astaxanthin category, its 4mg dose is moderate, and the high price per serving makes it less competitive if astaxanthin is the sole focus; its value lies more in its comprehensive eye blend rather than as a pure astaxanthin supplement.
Goals
Vision Support 92.0
This product is very strong for vision support due to the synergistic combination of Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Astaxanthin, and a high dose of Bilberry, which collectively address macular health, visual acuity, and antioxidant protection, making it highly effective.
Heart Health 65.0
The antioxidant properties from astaxanthin and anthocyanins in bilberry offer some general benefits for reducing oxidative stress, but the product is not specifically formulated or dosed for significant heart health support.
Anti-Inflammatory Support 65.0
The astaxanthin and bilberry provide some anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, contributing to general anti-inflammatory support, but higher doses of astaxanthin or other anti-inflammatory agents are typically more potent for systemic effects.
