I take bilberry and astaxanthin to prevent presbyopia.

A few months ago, I started to suspect I had presbyopia because my ability to see close text wasn't what it used to be. I already had presbyopia, but to prevent it from getting worse, I researched nutritional supplements and discovered bilberry and astaxanthin. So, I've been taking them for a few months to help prevent presbyopia. I'm curious to see how well they're working, but I feel like I can see text up close better than before.

Presbyopia is a condition that everyone has to accept as they age. Still, it's best to delay its onset as much as possible, and to achieve this, we must make efforts to prevent it. Changing lifestyle habits is crucial for preventing presbyopia, but my work makes it difficult for me to change my lifestyle, so I chose to prevent it through nutritional supplements.

I chose two supplements to prevent presbyopia. The first is astaxanthin. I chose it because I found a related paper published in the Journal of Clinical Ophthalmology. Astaxanthin contains a powerful antioxidant extracted from the microalgae Haematococcus. This ingredient increases blood flow to the ciliary body, the muscle that controls focus, relaxing stiff eye muscles and improving focus adjustment. Therefore, it's said to be effective in preventing presbyopia and delaying its onset.

Presbyopia, which occurs with age, is related to the oxidation of eye cells. Bilberries' powerful antioxidant properties are said to act as a protective barrier against cell oxidation and aging. In particular, bilberries contain anthocyanins, which protect retinal cells and reduce eye fatigue, playing a crucial role in preventing presbyopia.

So, I've been taking these two supplements for several months now to prevent presbyopia, and I don't feel like my presbyopia symptoms are getting any worse. I'll have to keep taking them consistently.
