Eye Profile

Your eyes are complex organs that need many different vitamins and nutrients to function properly. Have you ever struggled with headaches, blurry vision, caught yourself moving a paper in and out to focus, or had difficulty seeing at night? If so, then you should look into running our Eye Health Profile, which has been constructed to look at all the important nutrients!

The eye has a particularly high metabolic rate and thus has an added need for antioxidant protection.

Protect your precious sight by taking steps to ensure the best eye health possible. The Eye Profile focuses on preventive measures to maintain healthy eyesight by assessing the levels of important nutrients in the body. Research suggests that, in addition to being physically active, not smoking, and wearing protective sunglasses, nutrient therapies to support eye health may prevent or significantly slow the progression of various age-related vision problems.

Our laboratory has identified a lab profile of evidence-based tests that will identify any nutrient deficiencies and make recommendations to support optimal vision health.

Tests Included:

  • Beta Carotene
  • Lutein
  • Selenium (RBC)
  • Vitamin A
  • Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin)
  • Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid)
  • Vitamin C (Plasma, Urine)
  • Vitamin E
  • Zinc (Serum, RBC)

Profile specific instructions for lab draw:

  • This lab profile does not require fasting.
  • Additional instructions may be provided upon ordering/scheduling.
