What is intraocular pressure?

It’s the fluid pressure inside the eye—and it’s important to maintain the balance between the production and drainage of the eye’s aqueous humor, the thick watery substance that fills the space between the lens and cornea.

And if you've been to the eye doc lately, you know about the dreaded puff test... waiting... waiting... flinch! Nobody likes it, but it's an important tool to measure your eye's intraocular pressure.

Why Ocular Pressure & Retina Defense

Clinical validation is the most important reason. Studies show that Mirtogenol, the blend of two researched ingredients—Pycnogenol French Maritime Pine Bark Extract and Mirtoselect Bilberry Extract—in Ocular Pressure & Retina Defense, can help support intraocular pressure within the aqueous humor and support the well-being of your eyes.

The research behind the solution

One study, using 120 mg of Mirtogenol (the same amount in Ocular Pressure & Retina Defense), showed Mirtogenol helped improve intraocular pressure by 4.8 points.*

Everyday eye tips

Promoting proper retinal health and intraocular pressure can also be supported by eating well, staying active, and limiting caffeine. Plus, advanced supplementation, as with Ocular Pressure & Retina Defense, which can help maintain intraocular pressure and blood flow in ocular arteries.
