Mirtogenol®
Mirtoselect® + Pycnogenol®
An unique formula, comprised of Mirtoselect® standardized bilberry extract and Pycnogenol® French maritime pine bark extract, provides a synergistic approach to maintaining healthy intraocular pressure (IOP) levels that are within the normal range.
Key Functions & Health Benefits
- Improves visiona and eye health especially those with glacoma
How It Works
- Helps maintain normal intra-ocular pressure by reducing the release of aqueous humor from the ciliary body, for those who are within a normal range.
- Mirtogenol® supports healthy ocular blood flow to maintain a balance of humor inflow and outflow.
- Mirtogenol® helps maintain the thickness of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), which is an important diagnostic parameter for early detection of glaucoma.
- Mirtogenol® protects the eyes from oxidative stress and free radicals, helping to reduce the risk of eye damage.
- Mirtogenol® helps improve the visual field, which is associated with glaucoma progression.
- Mirtogenol® supports the perfusion of the vascular circle of the optical nerve (circle of Zinn-Haller) to promote healthy eye function.
Clinical Evidences
The study found that, over a period of 6 months, MIRTOGENOL® enhanced the beneficial effects of latanoprost by further lowering IOP by 15% in comparison with latanoprost only.
Potential Side Effects
- It has not been reported to cause serious side effects. However, minor side effects may occur, such as headaches, bad breath, and an upset stomach.
- Mirtogenol may increase the risk of bleeding in people who take blood thinners or have conditions that increase bleeding.
