About macular carotenoids

The macula is the central part of the retina responsible for detailed vision. It naturally contains three carotenoid pigments — Lutein, Zeaxanthin and Meso-Zeaxanthin — which the body cannot make and must obtain from diet. MacuShield provides all three in one daily capsule, with the Gold version adding omega-3 and vitamins. It's a food supplement taken to support the normal macular pigment, not a treatment for eye disease.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I take MacuShield?

Take one capsule daily, ideally with a meal containing some fat to aid absorption. It's designed for long-term daily use.

What's the difference between Original and Gold?

Original provides the three macular carotenoids; Gold adds omega-3 fatty acids and supporting vitamins and minerals in one capsule.

Should I see an optician?

Yes — supplements don't replace regular eye checks. See your optician or GP about any changes in your vision.
