I-Caps Formula is a dietary supplement tablet with vitamins, mineral, lutein and zeaxanthin which has a time-release formula. This unique time-release formula allows the ingredients to dissolve gradually thereby contributing to improved absorption by the body.

ICaps Formula with Lutein and Zeaxanthin has been developed by Alcon Laboratories, a world wide leader in eye care. Each ICaps tablet is made of high quality ingredients and meets the rigorous quality-control standards of Alcon. Alcon is involved in research studying the positive effects of antioxidants and carotenoids on health vision.

ICaps Formula contains lutein and zeaxanthn which are recommended by ophthalmologists, opticians and nutritionists. ICaps is a specialized, comprehensive formula of carotenoids, antioxidants and minerals important to vision. Lutein and zeaxanthin are natural carotenoids that have been shown through structural and clinical studies to be concentrated in the muscular segment of retina.

Accumulation of these carotenoids is dependent on dietary intake. Studies demonstrate a relationship between these two carotenoids and the maintenance of a normal healthy macula and clarity of the lens of the eye. ICaps contains zinc, and important mineral found in high concentrations in healthy eyes.

Being fit and healthy has never been more important to us. For optimum health we should take regular exercise and eat five portions of fruit and vegetables a day, but how many of us worry about the state of our eyes until we start to experience problems?
This lack of awareness about eye health could help to explain why many of us suffer from unnecessary visual problems as we grow older.
ICaps® can help maintain healthy eyes, although food supplementation should not be used as a substitute for a healthy diet. It may also make up for nutrients you may not be getting enough of through your daily diet, especially Lutein and Zeaxanthin. These are important for the maintenance of healthy eyes, but few people in the UK have even heard of them! Lutein and Zeaxanthin cannot be produced naturally by the body so we must include a source of these carotenoids within our diet. They can be found in green, leafy vegetables such as spinach, broccoli and cabbage, but it may be difficult to consume enough of these to provide the recommended daily amounts of Lutein and Zeaxanthin needed. This is where ICaps® may help, packed full of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and carotenoids, ICaps® offers the equivalent of four portions of fruit and vegetables per day.
ICaps® is the most widely recommended supplement for eye health by ophthalmologists, especially aimed at people aged 40 years and over. It is also frequently recommended by opticians, pharmacists and nutritionists.

Clinical Information
What are lutein and zeaxanthin?
Lutein and Zeaxanthin are considered essential micronutrients for eye health. They occur in healthy eyes as a part of the macular pigment. Eye experts often use the density of the macula as a measure of how healthy our eyes are.
Unfortunately, years of exposure to damaging light and oxidative stress can mean that the macula degenerates as we get older. The effect of this is decreased macula density and age-related vision loss
