In today’s digital world, screen time is unavoidable. Digital Eye Support soft chews help replenish the macular carotenoids our eyes use to filter blue light emitted by our computers, phones, and tablets!
Digital screens emit blue light. But as it turns out, your eyes contain macular pigments that help filter blue light before it reaches the delicate photoreceptors in your retina. These innovative soft chews deliver the macular carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin that can help you maintain healthy macular pigment density in this always-on, digital era.
Each day we are exposed to digital phones, tablets, and computer screens—as well as the blue spectrum of light they emit. The macular pigment in our eyes needs special nutrients called carotenoids to maintain the pigment density necessary to filter out blue light before it reaches the photoreceptors in the retina. Our Digital Eye Support Soft Chew provides these carotenoids in an orange-flavored soft chew.
Always online. We've got some good news that's easy on the eyes.
Maintain the health of your eyes with digital eyes. Support soft chews from life extension. These innovative soft chews are formulated with clinically studied ingredients to help filter blue light from laptops, phones and tablets.
Life extension empowering you with high quality, science based formulas since 1980. So go easy on your eyes with digital eyes support. Soft chews from life extension.

FAQ
What are the main benefits of lutein and zeaxanthin? Lutein and zeaxanthin are macular carotenoids. They help maintain healthy macular pigment density, which helps the eye filter the blue light emitted from digital devices.
How does Digital Eye Support work?
Have lutein and zeaxanthin, like the ones in Digital Eye Support, been clinically tested? Yes. In a 12-month, placebo-controlled study of healthy adults taking the marigold extract in these soft chews, researchers observed positive results in macular pigment density, carotenoid levels and response to glare and visual stress scores.
Who is Digital Eye Support intended for? In this always-on digital era, these soft chews are intended for any adult looking to help maintain vision and ocular health. This includes students, teachers, professionals, and anyone else who finds themselves using digital devices often throughout the day.
Who should NOT take Digital Eye Support? Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding and people who have or are undergoing treatment for a medical condition should not take Digital Eye Support without first discussing it with their physician.
What differentiates Digital Eye Support from standard eye health formulas? Digital Eye Support delivers clinically studied ingredients that help eyes filter blue light and maintain healthy macular pigment density in a tasty soft chew. It is manufactured in the United States using globally sourced ingredients in a cGMP-certified facility. It uses self-certified non-GMO ingredients, is gluten-free, and comes from Life Extension, a vitamin and supplement brand in business since 1980.
When will I see results from taking Digital Eye Support? Everyone is different and results may vary. Speak with your doctor to see if these soft chews are right for you. For best results, take the product exactly as directed on the label instructions.
Can Digital Eye Support be taken as part of a daily stack? Yes. You can take Digital Eye Support with other supplements such as a multivitamin, probiotic and fish oil. Always speak with your doctor before adding a new supplement to your routine.
How should I take Digital Eye Support? Chew one (1) soft chew of Digital Eye Support a day, or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner.
Is there an ideal time of day to take Digital Eye Support? No. You can take it any time of day.
Should Digital Eye Support be taken with food or on an empty stomach? This eye health supplement can be taken with or without food.
Does Digital Eye Support require refrigeration? No, it does not need to be refrigerated. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, such as a pantry.
Have the lutein and zeaxanthin in Digital Eye Support been tested for quality and purity? Yes. The raw materials in Digital Eye Support have been batch-tested for heavy metals, microbial contamination and other contaminants.

Life Extension provides a Certificate of Analysis (COA) for every product, summarizing testing reports for our final products. Call Customer Support at 1-800-678-8989 to request a COA.
Does Digital Eye Support contain allergens, gluten and/or GMOs? Digital Eye Support is gluten-free and self-certified non-GMO.
What we see as light is only the visible portion of a broad spectrum of wavelengths. We perceive different wavelengths within that spectrum as different colors. Wavelengths in the range of about 400–500 nanometers we perceive as the color blue.1 This “blue” wavelength is also produced by many digital device screens, such as those found on computers, smartphones, and tablets.2
The effects of blue light
The eye's cornea, lens, and vitreous humor only filter minimal amounts of blue light. This means most of that blue light reaches the back of the eye where the macula is located. The macula itself is full of carotenoids lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin which help the eye filter blue light.3 These daily, orange-flavored soft chews deliver these carotenoids to support eye health.
Patented marigold extract
Digital Eye Support Soft Chew delivers a patented, clinically studied marigold extract that provides the macular carotenoids lutein and both zeaxanthin isomers at the same 5:1 ratio found in nature.
Lutein & zeaxanthin
Lutein and zeaxanthin are called macular carotenoids for a reason: these compounds are the predominant carotenoids found in your eyes, mostly in the pigmented area called the macula.
Macular pigment ocular density (MPOD)
The more lutein and zeaxanthin your macular pigment has, the better it can filter blue or digital light. They also support visual health and acuity by helping to maintain delicate eye tissues when exposed to oxidative stress.3,4
Clinically studied vision health support
In a double-blind, placebo-controlled, 12-month clinical study, the same ingredient in this formula was given to young, healthy adults once a day. The researchers measured several variables, including macular pigment density, serum carotenoid levels and response to glare and visual stress caused by light.5
Glare
We’ve all experienced the effects of light glare, where exposure to bright light makes it difficult to see clearly. But how bright is too bright can actually vary. Over a 12-month period, Lutemax 2020® improved the tolerable threshold of intensity where a subject’s eyesight was affected by glare.5
Photostress
Sometimes, after being exposed to a bright light, it takes time for the eyes to adjust and start re-transmitting visual cues to the brain from the world around you. This whiteout period, where we cannot see clearly, is called photostress, and it is completely normal. But as with light glare, photostress recovery time can vary. Lutemax 2020® improved scores of photostress recovery times.5
More about blue light
Excessive exposure to light, especially late in the day (as can occur while viewing digital displays before bed), can impact our circadian rhythms, and the delicate structures in our eyes cannot filter blue light efficiently without sufficient macular pigment density.
Since many of us use our digital devices as much as 11 hours a day, it is a good idea that we give our eyes the nutritional support to help filter out digital light.
