The #1 Clinically Proven Eye Vitamin for Age-Related Macular Degeneration.

PreserVision AREDS 2 is the leading eye vitamin supplement clinically proven to help reduce the risk of progression of moderate-to-advanced Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) — the leading cause of vision loss in adults over 50 in the United States. Formulated based on the landmark National Eye Institute (NEI) Age-Related Eye Disease Study 2 (AREDS2), this exact formula of vitamins C and E, zinc, copper, lutein, and zeaxanthin was shown in a large-scale, multi-year clinical trial to significantly reduce the risk of AMD progressing to advanced stages that cause severe, irreversible vision loss. PreserVision AREDS 2 is the only supplement that contains the exact, clinically validated AREDS2 formula — making it the gold standard in evidence-based eye health supplementation and the supplement most frequently recommended by eye care professionals for patients with intermediate or advanced AMD.

Key Benefits

• Clinically proven AREDS2 formula shown to reduce the risk of AMD progression by up to 25% in at-risk individuals
• Contains lutein and zeaxanthin — the carotenoids that naturally concentrate in the macula — replacing beta-carotene from the original AREDS formula for improved safety and efficacy
• High-potency vitamins C and E provide powerful antioxidant protection for retinal tissue against oxidative damage
• Zinc supports retinal health and the activity of protective antioxidant enzymes in the eye
• Copper included to prevent zinc-induced copper deficiency
• Recommended by more eye doctors than any other eye vitamin brand

Suggested Use

Take 2 softgels daily with a meal. The 210-softgel supply provides a 105-day supply at the recommended dose, making it an economical choice for long-term, consistent use. PreserVision AREDS 2 is intended for individuals who have been diagnosed with intermediate AMD or advanced AMD in one eye — consult your eye care professional to determine if this supplement is appropriate for your specific diagnosis and stage of AMD. Not intended for general eye health maintenance in individuals without AMD. Keep out of reach of children. Store in a cool, dry place.

Key Features

• Exact AREDS2 Formula: PreserVision AREDS 2 contains the precise nutrient levels studied in the NEI's Age-Related Eye Disease Study 2 — the largest and most rigorous clinical trial ever conducted on nutritional supplementation for AMD. The AREDS2 study followed over 4,000 participants for five years and demonstrated that this specific combination of nutrients significantly reduces the risk of AMD progressing to advanced stages that cause central vision loss
• Lutein & Zeaxanthin (vs. Beta-Carotene): The AREDS2 study replaced beta-carotene from the original AREDS formula with lutein (10 mg) and zeaxanthin (2 mg) — the two carotenoids that naturally concentrate in the macular pigment of the retina. This change improved safety (beta-carotene is associated with increased lung cancer risk in smokers) while improving efficacy, as lutein and zeaxanthin directly replenish the macular pigment that filters harmful blue light and protects photoreceptor cells from oxidative damage
• High-Potency Antioxidant Complex: Vitamins C (500 mg) and E (400 IU) provide a high-dose antioxidant shield for retinal tissue, neutralizing the free radicals generated by constant light exposure and metabolic activity in the retina — one of the highest oxygen-consuming tissues in the body and correspondingly one of the most vulnerable to oxidative damage over time
• Zinc & Copper: Zinc (80 mg as zinc oxide) is a critical trace mineral concentrated in the retina that supports the activity of antioxidant enzymes and helps vitamin A produce protective melanin pigment in the eye. Copper (2 mg as cupric oxide) is included to prevent the copper deficiency that can result from high-dose zinc supplementation, ensuring the formula is both effective and safe for long-term use
