MacuShield Original - 90 Capsules

MacuShield Original – 90 Capsules is a premium eye health food supplement developed in collaboration with leading eye specialists. Each daily softgel is formulated with the three macular carotenoids — lutein (10 mg), meso-zeaxanthin (10 mg) and zeaxanthin (2 mg) — known to accumulate at the macula, the part of the retina responsible for central vision and visual clarity.* These carotenoids form the macular pigment, which plays a vital role in visual performance and protection against oxidative stress.* MacuShield is widely recognised as the UK’s leading eye health supplement brand, trusted by healthcare professionals and consumers alike.

Suitable for adults seeking daily nutritional support for eye health, this one-a-day capsule offers an easy and consistent way to help maintain normal vision as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.
