Four publications in recent years have demonstrated that after three to six months of supplementation with 150 mg of R-alpha-lipoic acid (contained in 300 mg of racemate), 1.1 mg of vitamin B1, 1.4 mg of vitamin B2, and 25 mg of rutin, both visual function and functional as well as morphological parameters of the retina improved significantly.
The vitreous body has a unique protective mechanism against oxidative stress and collagen glycation. However, this mechanism loses efficacy during degeneration. Providing the eye with naturally occurring micronutrients can help reactivate this mechanism, minimising or even preventing collagen fibres from clumping. Discover all about VitroCap®N, including its ingredients, mechanism of action, clinical study data, and expert panel discussions with eye care professionals who have up to 10 years of experience using the product.
Learn everything about RetiCap®DR – from its ingredients and mechanisms of action to clinical study data. The complex pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy (DR) is triggered by hyperglycaemia-induced oxidative stress (OS), which damages capillary endothelial cells, nerve cells, and glial cells in the retina. Increased OS leads to changes in cellular metabolism.
Since 2013, extensive scientific studies have investigated important new findings on the effectiveness of VitroCap®N. In five clinical studies, European researchers observed significant improvements in patients with vitreous opacities through the intake of the micronutrients contained in VitroCap®N.
During the 35th International Congress of the German Ophthalmic Surgery Society, ebiga-VISION invited renowned scientists and ophthalmologists to a satellite symposium dedicated to the vitreous body. The presentations and discussions by doctors and researchers summarized the latest findings on vitreous degeneration, its impact on visual performance and quality of life, as well as both surgical and non-surgical treatment options for everyday clinical practice.
