Key Ingredients
Lutein is a carotenoid antioxidant necessary for protection against free radical damage in the cornea, lens, and retina and provides a natural "sunscreen" for the eyes and skin.
Omega-3 fatty acids contain essential fatty acids EPA and DHA that cannot be made by the body and support retinal health.
Grape Seed Extract is rich in antioxidants and proanthocyanidins which support the normal inflammatory response and are powerful free radical scavengers.
Alpha Lipoic Acid, or ALA, is an occurring antioxidant that's made in the body. Alpha Lipoic Acid is a universal antioxidant that is important for normal liver function and vision.
Vitamin E is found naturally in some foods, added to others, and available as a dietary supplement. Vitamin E is the collective name for a group of fat-soluble compounds that provide antioxidant support.

For Veterinarians
Eye-SEA™ has been formulated by veterinary ophthalmologists based on clinical research.
Proprietary Blend: FloraGLO® Lutein 5%, Imuno-2865™, Omega-3 fatty acids, Lycopene (tomato extract), Silymarin 80% extract:
- Lutein is an important carotenoid that helps maintain ocular health through its antioxidant properties.(1,2)
- Imuno-2865™ is a proprietary blend of natural ingredients that help to support proper immune function.
- Omega-3 fatty acids provide EPA and DHA, which are antioxidants that support a healthy immune. DHA has been specifically proven to protect the retina and lens from oxidants.(3)
- Lycopene, extracted from tomatoes, is the most potent carotenoid. In animals, lycopene has demonstrated the ability to promote health and clarity of the ocular lens.(4)
- Silymarin extract is derived from milk thistle and is a potent antioxidant that upregulates other antioxidant enzymes, like superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase, to support overall cellular health.(5)
Proanthocyanidins (flavonoids):
- Grape Seed Extract 95%: Grape seed extract is a strong antioxidant that scavenges free radicals and has been proven to maintain the health of the retina, including the photoreceptors.(6)
- Bilberry Extract (Vaccinium myrtillus standardized for 25% anthocyanidins): Bilberry promotes the transport of glutathione, the predominant antioxidant found in the lens, into the eye.(7)
- Pinebark Extract: Pine bark enhances retinal health with its ability to cross the blood brain barrier to strengthen vessel walls and promote circulation and neovascularization.
Lutein (Beadlet form) and Zeaxanthin Elementals
The beadlet form of lutein is derived from the marigold plant and is a particularly potent antioxidant.(8) Both lutein and zeaxanthin(9) concentrate in the cones of the retina to attenuate harmful wavelengths of blue light, found in the visible light spectrum and in UV rays. Over time, retinal exposure to blue light leads to degeneration, so by protecting the retina from these harmful wavelengths, retinal health is preserved as the pet ages.
Alpha Lipoic Acid
Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is found in small amounts in all mammalian tissues.(10) ALA is an aldose reductase inhibitor, which discourages circulating sorbitol, and subsequent glucose, from depositing in the lens. ALA is also a strong antioxidant that supports the availability of circulating ascorbate, vitamin E, and glutathione for tissue use.
Vitamin E (as d-alpha-tocopherol)
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin that is a potent antioxidant. Fatty acid oxidation occurs during the processing of fish fed to marine animals, which degrades naturally occurring vitamin E. Supplementation therefore provides animals with antioxidant support to maintain a healthy immune system while under human care.
Folic Acid (as folate)
Folic acid supports the body’s natural antioxidant defenses as a cofactor for S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAMe) and homocysteine recycling.
Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone)
Coenzyme Q10 is a lipid soluble antioxidant that helps to maintain normal fat metabolism. It has been proven to decrease in the human eye with age, so supplementation helps protect the retina from age-related change.
