Eye Health
Centrum Advance 50+
KShs 1,950.00Centrum Advance 50+ helps cover the nutrients an older diet most often falls short of, with 24 vitamins and minerals in a single daily tablet, formulated for adults over 50. It is deliberately low in iron, at 15% of the reference intake, because iron needs fall after middle age while the risk of carrying too much rises. Please mention it to our pharmacist if you take warfarin, because the tablet contains vitamin K and that affects your INR.
Lutein Esters 10mg 60s
KShs 2,895.00Lutein Esters 10mg is a once-daily lutein supplement from marigold flowers that helps build macular pigment, the yellow filter at the centre of your retina that absorbs blue light. It suits people who eat few dark green leaves, and it does not sharpen eyesight. If you have been diagnosed with macular degeneration, ask our pharmacist first, because the evidence supports a fuller formula.
Taurine 60s
KShs 2,250.00Taurine 500mg from Lamberts supplies an amino acid your heart, eyes and nervous system hold in unusually high concentrations and which occurs almost entirely in meat, fish and shellfish, so a taurine supplement most often suits vegetarians and vegans. It is not a stimulant and does not work like an energy drink. Speak to our pharmacist first if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or taking heart or blood pressure medicine.
Vivis Capsules 30’s
KShs 1,600.00Vivis capsules help keep the macula at the back of the eye supplied with the antioxidant vitamins, minerals and lutein it draws on, in a 30-capsule pack. It suits somebody who already has a diagnosis of macular change and is under the care of an eye doctor, because this kind of formula slows a change already underway rather than preventing one or bringing sight back. Please talk to our doctor before you buy if your vision has changed recently, because some causes need treating within days.
