[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Daehyun] Recently, as the usage time of digital devices such as smartphones, computers, and TVs has increased, the number of 'young presbyopia' patients in their 20s and 30s is on the rise. In particular, smartphones are used close to the eyes, which increases eye fatigue.
This accelerates aging and leads to an overall decline in eye function, increasing the likelihood of eye diseases such as macular degeneration and cataracts.
To protect eye health, lifestyle habits are important. When using digital devices for long periods, it is necessary to consciously blink your eyes. If your eyes become too dry, you should frequently drink water to replenish sufficient moisture. Using artificial tears is also beneficial.
Supplementing nutrition to replenish lost ocular components is also helpful. Consuming foods or supplements containing astaxanthin and lutein in sufficient amounts is effective.
JW Pharmaceutical's 'Active Life Eye Health' is a complex functional product containing nine essential ingredients for eye health, with lutein and astaxanthin as the main components. It improves convenience by requiring only one tablet per day.
Lutein extracted from marigold flowers helps prevent eye aging by increasing the macular density responsible for central vision of the retina. Additionally, astaxanthin aids in regulating the contraction and relaxation of eye muscles and improves retinal blood flow, reducing eye fatigue.
Six other ingredients, including vitamin A, necessary for visual adaptation in dark environments; vitamin E, which helps with antioxidant effects; Cassia tora extract powder; bilberry extract powder; and refined fish oil, also support comprehensive eye health management.
