Macula 2 Essentials: 

This is a vitamin that is specially developed for maintaining the health of the human eye. It has been formulated to help delay the progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
Formulated with Lutein and zeaxanthin, these vitamins have the essential antioxidant substances that work together to protect the sensitive structures of the eye from damage . Lutein and zeaxanthin are the only two nutrients found in plants that are deposited in the macula (the most sensitive part of the retina) and the eye’s crystalline lens to protect them from damage by ultraviolet and blue light. 


MACULA 2 ESSENTIALS will help maintain good eye health and is also a great daily multi vitamin.

Ascenta Omega 3 : 

Not all Omega 3 Vitamins are created the same. Ascenta Omega 3 is a medical grade vitamin supplement that is formulated to be natural to the human body and easy to absorb. Here are some of the many benefits of using the Ascenta Omega 3:

  • Offered in both liquid and easy to swallow pill form
  • No fishy taste

  • Vital for overall optimum health
  • Ascenta contains two omega-3 fatty acids called DHA, and EPA that come from fish oil.

  • Reduces the need for artificial tears

This "visual snow" can be persistent and is often accompanied by other symptoms that can affect daily life. As more people learn about visual snow syndrome, it becomes essential to understand its symptoms, potential causes, and how to manage it.
