LATEST UPDATE

Computer, smart phone users could benefit from lutein, zeaxanthin

July 12 2017. A report published in the journal Foods on June 29, 2017 adds evidence to a protective effect for the macular carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin against damage to the eye caused by exposure to high-energy blue light from computer or smart phone screens. The two carotenoids act as a natural filter for high-energy blue light.

In the randomized, double-blind, Blue Light User Exposure (B.L.U.E.) study, 48 adults aged 18 to 25 years with six or more hours of daily near-field screen time exposure received a placebo or 24 milligrams lutein plus zeaxanthin daily for six months. Visual performance measures, physical indicators of excessive screen time, sleep quality and macular pigment optical density were assessed before and after the treatment period.
