My eyes
Re: My eyes
I just talked with George. It's not lutien, it's beta carotene. If you've smoked within the last 30 years (not 20), take the eye vitamins that don't have it. Bausch & Lomb (or however the heck it's spelled) has two different formulas - one with and one without. One of the most important things that the eye vitamins do is provide a sun screen for your eyes, thereby preventing damage to them by the sun. The trial that he was in at Duke was AREDS 2. The AREDS formula is now available to the public for purchase - B&L is the distributor. Evidently the results were extremely encouraging so I would recommend them. Another good side effect of his trial participation is that he has free vitamins from AREDS for life. Now if they only paid for his injections....
Re: My eyes
Thanks Pam - I know my doctor told be to be sure to wear sunglasses and hats. Especially since I have blue eyes.
I'll pass this on to my sister also.
