AREDS2 eye supplements

A guide to AREDS2, who it may help and how to check the label.

What you need to know

AREDS2 supplements may help slow progression in some people with age-related macular degeneration (AMD), particularly intermediate AMD. They are not a general prevention supplement for everyone. Ask your eye specialist whether the evidence applies to your stage of AMD.

This is an educational guide. Sanara is not taking orders or preorders. Compare the actual product’s label, suitability and total cost before buying from a retailer.

What to check before buying

Check the label

  • Exact AREDS2 nutrient amounts, not just the name
  • Daily serving and tablet count
  • Beta-carotene: current and former smokers should avoid older AREDS formulas containing it

Directions and pack size

Ask your eye specialist whether AREDS2 is appropriate. Then follow the chosen product’s label. Pack duration depends on the labelled daily serving; we do not list an unverified tablet count or supply duration.

Safety

Contains zinc — do not exceed the recommended dose. Speak to a clinician if you take other zinc-containing supplements.
