Eye
and Vision Health
Everyone experiences eye trouble at one time or another.
Eyes that are bloodshot, blurry, dry, infected, irritated,
itchy, sensitive to light, or ulcerated are among the
most common health complaints. Chronic eye problems,
such as farsightedness, nearsightedness, cataracts,
and glaucoma, are usually caused by disorders in the
eye itself.
Macular degeneration
The retina is the “screen” at the back of
the eye on which light that enters the eye is thrown.
Macular degeneration is the progressive destruction
of the macula, the part of the retina responsible for
fine vision. It is the leading cause of vision loss
among people over age fifty-five in North America. About
20,000 new cases are diagnosed each year. There are
two forms of macular degeneration: dry (atrophic) or
wet (exudative). In the dry form, which is more common,
cells in the macula accumulate sacs of debris called
drusens. These drusens swell and block off circulation
to the microscopic blood vessels that serve the macula.
In the wet form, blood vessels themselves swell, and
unnecessary vessels form beneath the retina. These vessels
leak fluid and may bleed, which causes scarring. Laser
surgery may be used to destroy the leaking blood vessels,
although this surgery is not suitable for everyone.
Aging, atherosclerosis, exposure to environmental toxins,
high blood pressure, and smoking all contribute to blood-vessel
damage in the eye. As blood vessels are damaged, less
oxygen reaches the retina, and the blood vessels constrict
to preserve the available oxygen. If normal blood flow
is restored from time to time, the vessels don’t
relax right away, and oxygen-rich blood gathers in the
retina. As a result, toxic free radicals, which are
oxygen-based, accumulate and cause damage. Heredity
also seems to play a role in this disorder.
Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is an eye disorder that affects
the retina, the “projection screen” on which
light that passes through the lens of the eye is thrown.
In diabetic retinopathy, the capillaries that nourish
the retina leak fluid or blood. This leakage results
in inadequate circulation to the cells that respond
to light and relay visual impulses to the optic nerve,
which carries these impulses to the brain. Diabetic
retinopathy is a common cause of blindness in people
with severe diabetes. There usually are no symptoms
until the individual begins losing vision. The risk
factors for diabetic retinopathy include age, the length
of time the individual has had diabetes, and the presence
of a “sticky” protein in the blood called
glucosylated hemoglobin. Another risk factor for diabetic
retinopathy is the presence of insulinlike growth factor
I, a hormone produced in excess during diabetes. This
hormone encourages the growth of fragile capillaries
in the eye that easily break and leak fluid. Conventional
treatment consists of laser surgery, which seals the
leaking blood vessels.
Cataracts
Cataracts are white, opaque blemishes on the normally
transparent lens of the eye. They occur as a result
of free-radical or oxidative damage to the protein structure
of the lens, similar to the damage that occurs to the
protein of egg whites when eggs are boiled or fried.
Cataracts are the leading cause of impaired vision and
blindness in the United States. The main signs and symptoms
are clouding or opacity in the crystalline lens of the
eye and gradual loss of vision. Age-related cataracts
form when the normal protective mechanisms of the eye
are unable to prevent free-radical damage. The lens,
like many other tissue of the body, is dependent on
adequate levels and activities of the antioxidant nutrients
and enzymes. When these normal protective mechanisms
are overwhelmed or deficient, cataracts form. For example,
exposure to cigarette smoke or sunlight increases the
risk of cataracts. The advanced cataracts must be treated
with lens-replacement surgery. With developing cataracts,
herbal treatments can greatly extend the period before
surgery becomes necessary. The development of cataracts
also can be delayed or avoided by combining herbal treatment
with diet, sun protection, and avoidance of certain
common drugs.
Glaucoma
Glaucoma is increased pressure within the eye (intraocular
pressure), which results from greater production than
outflow of the fluid of the eye (the aqueous humor).
The normal intraocular pressure (IOP) is about 10-21mmHg.
In chronic glaucoma, the IOP is usually mildly to moderately
elevated (22 to 40 mmHg). The patients in the early
stages of chronic glaucoma rarely have symptoms. Chronic
Glaucoma can mean the gradual loss of peripheral vision
,eventually resulting in tunnel vision. The cause of
glaucoma appears to be an abnormality in composition
of the supportive structures of the eye. Specially,
structural changes reflecting poor collagen integrity
and function are the hallmarks of glaucoma. These changes
lead to blockage in the flow of the aqueous humor and
result in elevated IOP readings.
Bloodshot Eyes
Bloodshot eyes occur when small blood vessels on the
surface of the eye become inflamed. Inflammation of
the capillaries on the surface of the eye can be caused
by allergies or by exposure to airborne irritant chemicals.
Other possible causes include eyestrain, fatigue, and
disorders that impair circulation, including diabetes,
high blood pressure, and high cholesterol.
Floaters
Floaters are clear flecks and spots that move slowly
through the visual field. They are caused by the accumulation
of debris in the vitreous humor of the eye, the jellylike
substance that fills the eyeball. The debris results
when bits of the vitreous degenerate. Floaters tend
to increase with age and to be more noticeable if you
are nearsighted.
What is OcularGuard?
OcularGuard is an all-natural
product that is specially designed for improving healthy
eye functioning. OcularGuard provides large quantities
of bioflavonoids that strengthen the capillaries and
improve the circulation in the eye, helping stop the
breakage of blood vessels and to preserve night vision
and the ability to see in bright light. Because of its
powerful antioxidant activity, OcularGuard also helps
maintain healthy fluid balance in the eye and release
pressure behind the eye. OcularGuard helps prevent eye
cell damages from the free radicals, slow the progress
of or prevent macular degeneration and pathological
changes in retina and whole eye.

Release pressure behind the eye. Strengthens the Helps
linings of blood vessels and prevent blood vessel damage
in the eye. Helps maintain night vision. Stimulates
production of rhodopsin, a pigment essential to night
vision.
Grape seed Extract: increase circulation within the
eye, reducing free-radical damage and providing oxygen
supply to the retina. Reduce sensitivity to glare and
bright lights. Helps macular tissue adjust to oxygen

oxygen levels and neurological poisons.
Eyebright Extract: Has antiviral and antibacterial properties
and Relieves inflammation. Alleviates redness, irritation
and dryness, reduce swollen eyelids. Strengthens the
muscles surrounding the eyes. Good for virtually all
eye problems.
Lutein: is a yellow-orange carotene that appears to
offer significant protection against macular degeneration.
A low level of lutein in the macula is thought to be
a major risk factor for age-related macular degeneration.
Increasing the concentration of lutein within the macula
may offer significant protective effects against the
development of macular degeneration. It also has antioxidant
activity that protect eye from free radicals damage.
