"We have been recommending ScienceBased Health vitamins... for several years.  Starting approximately two years ago, we began seeing patients that had increased acuities of at least one full line and sometimes two lines on the Snellen chart.  All of the patients that demonstrated improved acuities were over 60 years of age and had been taking the Science Based Health vitamin supplements for over one year.  To date we have had 13 patients improve one to two lines of acuity.

"I recommend HydroEye for many of my dry eye patients, especially high-risk LASIK patients. My research has shown that HydroEye increases lactoferrin by 40% within two weeks of administering the formulation."

"I have seen a great satisfaction in the patient’s comfort level and a large reduction in the frequency of teardrops needed on a daily basis. The HydroEye has given him the comfort of a normal life and activity for a 9 year old with the use of one pill daily. Myself, his parents and the patient are quite satisfied with the HydroEye therapy he is on."

"I take OcularProtect every day to help ensure I keep my excellent macular health. The AREDS clinical trial found that high-dose antioxidant and zinc supplementation plays a critical role in slowing the progression of Age-Related Macular Degeneration. While AREDS did not examine whether supplementation also prevents macular degeneration, it stands to reason that key nutrients are likely to play an important role in prevention as well."

"Armed with such a powerful remedy to tear film deficiency, I now prescribe HydroEye for all my LASIK patients starting one week prior to their procedure as well as for the plethora of patients with Dry Eye Syndrome in Southern California who are less likely to accept being dependent on eye drops, gels or ointments."

-Michael B. Brenner, MD, FICS
Director, Mulach-Brenner Eye Center, Los Angeles, CA

"Recent studies have validated the importance of nutraceuticals in the prevention and treatment of various eye conditions. It is important that patients select a quality product that provides optimal levels of key nutrients that have scientifically been shown to protect our eye health. MacularProtect Complete delivers the key nutrients found to protect macular health in the National Eye Institute's AREDS research and also includes a comprehensive multivitamin that provides maximum support for overall body health. This all-in-one product is a convenient solution to the confusion and safety issues that both clinicians and patients face when trying to combine various products to achieve this level of coverage."

"I have found HydroEye to be a successful adjunct in some of our dry eye patients. You should see some effect in 3 to 4 weeks or sooner … I have several patients that describe a diminution in their dry eye symptoms"

McDonald Eye Associates, Fayetteville, AR

"A patient with chronic filamentary keratitis in both eyes and severely dry eyes failed with topical treatment (lubricating drops) and punctual plugs. I started her on HydroEye capsules twice daily and she reported much improvement about one month later. I had been struggling with this patient's therapy for years and I was excited to see that she had done so well with HydroEye nutritional supplements. I have also noticed that when prescribing HydroEye pre and post operatively for our LASIK patients, the incidence of postoperative superficial punctate keratopathy, which was quite common, has significantly decreased. We will continue using HydroEye in our practice."

Spindel Eye Associates, PC Derry, New Hampshire

"Artificial tears and ointments can alleviate dry eye symptoms, but HydroEye, taken orally, seems to treat the root of the problem"
