 Eye VitaminsOct 13, 2007
By Rosalie H. Kaye
"well informed consumer"
For all those mature individuals with the early stages of Macular degeneration, I highly recommend this product,after using this for less than one month, I can detect an improvement in my eyesight. It is a bit costly but well worth it as the product does work!!!!!

Eye vitaminsJan 20, 2008

When I was diagnosed with the start of AMD, my doctor told me to take these vitamins. I don't know how much of my stabilization/improvement relates to the vitamins, but I give them at least some of the credit. However, these are NOT to be taken if you haven't been diagnosed - they are a heavy dose with other side effects.

This combination of vitamins and minerals really works!Feb 05, 2010
By J. H. Johnson
This writer's ophthalmologist recommended AREDS several years ago; the effects were evident within a couple of weeks. All the white lines on the streets were suddenly looking freshly painted and night vision became "like old times" in that glare was minimized. I never miss my morning and evening dosage of one gel cap and truly hope that AREDS continues to allay macular degeneration as effectively as it has during my continued use.

 Don't be fooled by AREDS 2Nov 29, 2011
By Paula X. Evans
You may want to do the math before you get suckered into buying the "new and improved" Areds2 version of this vitamin. The only difference between the original "Lutein" formula and the new Areds2 formula is the addition of 1000 mg of Omega 3. However, you now need to take 4 (four) Areds2 tables daily instead of only 2 (two) tablets of the original Lutein formula. OK, so it the Lutein formula doesn't have fish oil. Fish oil is cheap.
Here are some #'s for you: At Costco, you'll pay $31.99 for 180 tablets LUTEIN tablets . That's .$18 per pill or $.36 per day because you take two tables. (At Amazon the Lutein formula runs $26.09 for 120 tablets so that's $.22 a tablet or $.44 per day for two tablets). You can buy Fish Oil at Costco for $10.79 for 400 tablets - $.03 a tablet -- or you can purchase Costco's Kirkland Fish Oil through Amazon for slightly more ($14.24 for 400 or $.04 a tablet). It will cost you DOUBLE to take the Areds2 formula! Areds2 is $28 @ Walmart (cheapest I could find) for 120 tablets....that's $.23 a tablet but don't forget you have to take 4 a day so that $.93 a day.
Let me think. Do I want to continue with the original Lutein formula at $.36 a day plus throw in one Fish Oil tablet for $.03, thus spending $.39 a day? Or, do I want to switch to the new improved Areds 2 formula, taking 4 -- not 2 -- tablets a day and spend $.93 a day?
Let the buyer beware!

IT'S WORKING FOR MEJun 02, 2009
By Old Home Owner
I've been taking the Bosch & Lomb PreserVision and 20mg of Lutein for over 5 years for early stage macular degeneration; and there has been no progression of the disease during this time.
