Question 1

What is Ocuvite?

Accepted Answer

Ocuvite is a daily eye vitamin developed by Bausch + Lomb. It is specifically formulated to help replenish vital nutrients that help support and protect eye health, which are often not present in standard multivitamins.

Question 2

How long has Ocuvite been available? When was it first released?

Accepted Answer

The brand and its core products have been sold for many years. Ocuvite first entered the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database in 2013.

Question 3

How does Ocuvite work?

Accepted Answer

Ocuvite helps replenishes nutrients important for eye health; its formulas supply carotenoids, antioxidants, minerals, and sometimes omega-3s to help protect the eye's natural defenses against aging, sunlight, and blue light from screens.

Question 4

Does Ocuvite help with dry eyes?

Accepted Answer

Ocuvite is marketed for nutritional support for eye health, not as a dry eye treatment. While some ingredients (such as omega-3s) are sometimes used as part of a broader dry eye plan, Ocuvite is not a treatment for dry eye disease.

Question 5

Does Ocuvite help prevent macular degeneration?

Accepted Answer

Ocuvite can be part of a routine to support overall eye health, but it is not intended to be part of an AMD management plan.

Question 6

What else can I do to take care of my eyes?

Accepted Answer

Bausch + Lomb encourages everyone to get an annual eye exam; eat an eye healthy, well-balanced diet rich in salmon, tuna, dark leafy greens, colored vegetables and fruits; wear sunglasses with UV protection and avoid smoking.

Question 7

How much Lutein does Ocuvite contain?

Accepted Answer

Formulations vary by product and region, so some Ocuvite variants may list different lutein amounts - always check the specific product label for the exact amount before use.

Question 8

What are DHA and EPA?

Accepted Answer

DHA and EPA are essential fatty acids that play an important role in eye health. Be sure the omega-3s in any supplement you take for eye health contain a high concentration of DHA and EPA.

Question 9

Is Ocuvite a multivitamin?

Accepted Answer

All Ocuvite eye vitamins include multiple ingredients, however, the formulas are designed specifically to support eye health whereas many traditional multivitamins support general health.

Question 10

Can I get these nutrients found in Ocuvite eye vitamins from just eating a healthy diet?

It is always advised to eat a healthy diet, but for many people the high level of nutrients in Ocuvite eye vitamins may be difficult to achieve from diet alone.

Question 11

What is the recommended daily dosage of Ocuvite Eye Vitamins?

Accepted Answer

The directions for use may vary depending on which Ocuvite product you are taking. Check the bottle label.

Question 12

What time of day should I take Ocuvite? Can it be taken at night?
