FOCUS MaculaPro
FOCUS MaculaPro eye vitamins are produced by Covalent Medical, a group of more than 400 retina specialists across the country, that collaborated by bringing together their collective treatment experience and extensive research work to create a national brand dedicated to serving patients suffering from macular degeneration.
Based on the AREDS study, Focus MaculaPro is a supplement which contains essential vitamins and minerals to support macular health. The macula is responsible for detailed central vision, allowing you to enjoy everyday activities like reading and driving. The most common disease affecting the macula is Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD). Though there are no known cures for AMD, a large-scale study (AREDS), sponsored by the National Eye Institute, found that taking high doses of particular antioxidants and zinc could promote macular health.
Focus MaculaPro is made in the United States and extensively tested in an FDA-registered facility to ensure a premium product. For more information on this physician-recommended macula vitamin that is now available for purchase by the general public, please visit www.focusvitamins.com.
