Research institutions contributing to the science
Many eye supplements. One built from retinal lipids.
Eye supplements have been built two ways for twenty-five years. On vitamins and minerals, or on standard omega-3.
Vision lipids is built a third way. On VLC-PUFAs, the very long chain fatty acids associated with retinal lipid structure.

why lipids
Built for structure,
not just nutrition
Vision lipids is built around VLC-PUFAs, the very long chain fatty acids associated with the lipid structure of the retina.
