Our Doctor's Recommended Supplement
Dr. Dagny Zhu
Ophthalmologist
As a board-certified ophthalmologist specializing in cornea, cataract, and laser vision correction, I treat patients every day who are concerned about maintaining their long-term eye health and preventing typical age-related decline.* And here’s the truth: vision health doesn’t just rely on good habits or annual eye exams. It starts on a cellular level—with protection against daily oxidative stress and eye strain.*
That’s why I always recommend two things. First, get the right nutrients specifically targeted to support eye health.* And second, be proactive.* Take steps now when it matters the most.*
This is exactly why I stand behind VisionMD®—a comprehensive formula featuring three clinically studied carotenoids: lutein, zeaxanthin, and astaxanthin.* These powerful antioxidants offer everyday support to protect the retina, reduce oxidative stress, and maintain a healthy blue light defense to maintain macular health and visual clarity.* It’s an easy, daily way to support one of your most vital senses.*
If you’re serious about protecting your sight for the long haul, VisionMD® is my go-to recommendation.*

What are people saying?
Frequently Asked Questions
How is VisionMD® different from other eye health supplements?
VisionMD® is formulated to match the CARMIS study carotenoid clinical dosages by including XanMax®, which provides 10 mg of lutein and 2 mg total of zeaxanthin, plus meso-zeaxanthin, and 4 mg of astaxanthin, and contains the same amounts of lutein and zeaxanthin as was used in the AREDS2 study.
Is EVTene™ better than other carotene products?
EVTene® is developed from virgin crude palm oil, the world’s richest natural plant source of retinol-based carotenes and is a naturally derived mixed carotene source that consists of about 30% alpha-carotenes, 65% beta-carotenes, and 5% other carotenes including gamma-carotene. Compared to other carotene products on the market that only offer beta-carotene.
Is EVTene™ Virgin Crude Palm Oil sustainably produced?
EVTene® is developed from RSPO Supply Chain Certified virgin crude palm oil, recognized worldwide for its commitment to sustainability and the protection of fragile environments. RSPO certification is an assurance to the customer that palm oil producers are certified through strict verification of the production process to the stringent RSPO Principles & Criteria for Sustainable Palm Oil Production, offering peace of mind and the prevention of overselling and mixing palm oil with conventional (or non-sustainable) oil palm products.
Why do I need protection support from blue light?
As excessive blue light penetrates the inner lining of the eye and retina, it may irritate light-sensitive cells.*
Can VisionMD® help with dry eyes?
Yes, VisionMD® is specifically formulated to address dry eyes from multiple causes, including screen time and digital devices. Since screens can reduce your blink rate by up to 60%, VisionMD® contains XanMax® lutein and zeaxanthin to maintain a healthy defense against blue light, EVTene® mixed carotenes for surface hydration through bioavailable Vitamin A, and astaxanthin to support natural tear production. This comprehensive approach addresses root causes of occasional dryness, providing more ongoing support than temporary solutions alone.
Does VisionMD® have side effects?
VisionMD® is a holistic supplement with no serious side effects.* Our product is manufactured in the USA using global ingredients in an FDA-regulated facility using cGMP standards. However, it is advisable that you consult your physician if you are concerned about any interactions with prescription medications you may be taking.
