Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible severe visual loss in Western Countries in people over 50 years of age. Research indicates it may be affected by a combination of hereditary and environmental factors, including smoking, obesity, and diet.

NTC has developed a number of food supplements containing the elective ingredients of the AREDS 2 Study (Vitamin C and E, Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Zinc, Copper) that contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress and the maintenance of normal vision.

A novel formulation is available in orodispersible tablets building on the AREDS ingredients enriched with Lycopene and Saffron, with well-known antioxidant properties.
