The curiosity these Netflix series creates and those five extra minutes with Instagram reels, How can we control our screen time? The nigh-light option is surely not working on these dark circles. But we might just have the right solution for your precious eyes.
What is Macula?
The macula or macula lutea is the part of the eyes in responsible for the central, high-resolution, color vision which is possible in bright light only; and this type of vision is hindered if the macula gets damaged, as in macular degeneration, this can be caused by the blue light and UV light absorption by the cells.
The scientific term macula lutea is derived from these two Latin words, macula, which means “spot,” and lutea, which means “yellow.” The yellow color of the spot (macula lutea) is because of xanthophyll caratinoids pigments known as zeaxanthin and lutein, which are abundant in the human retina.
Lutein and zeaxanthin cannot be synthesized by humans and must be obtained from outside sources. The natural source of the highest quality Lutein and zeaxanthin is Marigold (Calendula officinalis). Our fresh range, UMARIGOLD was created with carefully chosen, premium marigold plants. UMARIGOLD is more than simply these pigments; it is a unique combination of free lutein and varied amounts of zeaxanthin that was designed based on reliable scientific evidence demonstrating the significant health advantages of free lutein when combined with high levels of zeaxanthin.
Use of lutein and zeaxanthin extracts can be beneficial in the maintenance of good ocular health. The structure of lutein and zeaxanthin is closely related to beta-carotene and vitamin A. Lutein is often referred to as “the eye vitamin” due to its vital role in maintaining eye health.
