Maxitears Dry Eye Formula Vitamin by Maxivision

MAXITEARS formulated to enhance normal tear production.

Research has shown that dietary intake of certain nutrients including Omega-3 fatty acids may help relieve symptoms of dry eye.

Our Dry Eye Formula may be taken alone or with any other MAXIVISION nutritional supplements.

MAXITEARS is a great source of Omega-3 fatty acids which have been shown to increase tear production, improve cognitive function, and promote cardiovascular and retinal health. Certain Omega fatty acids are not produced in the human body and therefore must be obtained through diet or a quality supplement.

Dry Eye is a significant public health problem which affects more than 20 million Americans. As we age, our bodies produce less oil and it becomes necessary to supplement our diets with a healthy balance of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids. However, the current American diet is omega-3 deficient with an estimated omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acid ratio as low as 1:10. The correct ratio should be about 1:2.

Formulated to decrease inflammation, stimulate aqueous tear production, and augment the tear film oily layer.Maxitears provides patients with the essential fatty acids that have been shown to help reduce dry eye symptoms, increase tear production and improve tear quality. Also included in the formula is GLA and Turmeric Root, which studies suggest reduce inflammation, and Mucin Complex to aid in the quality of the mucus layer.

Maxitears also utilizes a new technologically advanced Licap, which unlike conventional soft gels capsules, have low oxygen permeability. Licaps are filled in an oxygen free environment, thereby reducing oxidation and preserving the stability and purity of the nutrients.How Does it Work?Research studies have shown that dry eye is caused by 2 underlying issues; a decrease in tear production due to inflammation, or an increase in tear film evaporation from oil loss.

• Dietary intake of omega-3 fatty acids and the ratio of their consumption to that of omega-6 fatty acids affect the overall amount of inflammatory activity in the body.
• Specifically, EPA and GLA act as anti inflammatory agents to decrease swelling of the tear glands, allowing the tears to flow more naturally.
• Turmeric root possesses both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It reduces inflammation by inhibiting certain omega fatty acids from converting into pro-inflammatories.

The other cause of dry eye can be the loss of oils in the tear film itself, causing the tears to evaporate too quickly creating reflex tearing from the chronic irritation.

Replenishing your body with omega fatty acids may help improve the quality of your tears by replacing the oils lost by our bodies, especially as we age.

The Mucin Complex contained in our formula acts directly on the mucin layer of the tear film by enhancing the mucus quality where mucus production by the conjunctival goblet cells have decreased.
