Prairie Naturals Ocu-Blue, Blue Light Protection with Lutein, Zeaxanthin and Astaxanthin, 60 Softgels

Prairie Naturals Ocu-Blue Details

Ocu-Blue is Prairie Naturals' blue light eye formula, built on three carotenoids that concentrate in the macula. Each softgel provides 10 mg lutein and 2 mg zeaxanthin (both from marigold, Tagetes erecta) plus 4 mg astaxanthin from whole Haematococcus pluvialis algae, suspended in organic olive oil. It helps improve macular pigment optical density, which helps protect the eyes against both blue light and oxidative damage. One softgel a day with a meal containing fat; 60 softgels per bottle.

Quick Facts

Who Ocu-Blue Is For

• People who spend long hours in front of computers, phones and tablets
• Anyone who wants to support macular pigment density with lutein and zeaxanthin
• People who want astaxanthin and the macular carotenoids together in one softgel
• Adults who don't eat many leafy greens, the main dietary source of lutein
• Anyone who prefers a simple one-softgel-a-day eye formula

Who this product is NOT for:

• Vegetarians and vegans — the softgel contains gelatin and beeswax
• People allergic to plants in the Asteraceae/Compositae/daisy family — the lutein and zeaxanthin come from marigold
• Anyone pregnant or breastfeeding, unless a health care practitioner has approved it
• People who want a broad eye multivitamin with zinc and vitamin A — see Prairie Naturals Ocu-Force

Vitamart's Take

Ocu-Blue is a focused formula: three carotenoids at meaningful doses and nothing extra. The 10 mg lutein and 2 mg zeaxanthin are the amounts most often used for macular support, and the 4 mg of astaxanthin adds a third antioxidant. The olive oil base matters, because carotenoids are fat-soluble — take it with a meal that has some fat in it. For screen-heavy days it's an easy single softgel to add to your routine.

How Ocu-Blue Compares

Ocu-Blue vs. Ocu-Force

Prairie Naturals Ocu-Force is a broader eye formula with lutein 5 mg, astaxanthin 1 mg and taurine 200 mg plus other antioxidant nutrients, taken twice daily. Ocu-Blue gives higher carotenoid amounts — 10 mg lutein, 2 mg zeaxanthin and 4 mg astaxanthin — in one softgel a day.

Ocu-Blue vs. Astaxanthin Plus

Prairie Naturals Astaxanthin Plus features the same three carotenoids — astaxanthin, lutein and zeaxanthin — and comes in 60 or 120 softgels. Ocu-Blue is positioned specifically around blue light protection.

Ocu-Blue vs. lutein-only supplements

A lutein-only product covers one macular carotenoid. Ocu-Blue adds zeaxanthin and astaxanthin in the same softgel.

What Is Lutein?

• Lutein is a yellow carotenoid found in leafy greens such as spinach and kale
• Together with zeaxanthin, it is concentrated in the macula, the central part of the retina
• These pigments make up the macular pigment, which absorbs blue light
• Ocu-Blue provides 10 mg lutein and 2 mg zeaxanthin per softgel, both from marigold (Tagetes erecta)
• Lutein is fat-soluble, so it is best absorbed with a meal containing oil or fat

Recommended Purpose

• Helps improve macular pigment optical density, which helps to protect the eyes against both blue light and oxidative damage

How To Use

• Adults: take 1 softgel daily with a meal containing oil or fat, or as directed by a health care practitioner
• Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding
• Do not use if you are allergic to plants of the Asteraceae/Compositae/daisy family
• Store in a tightly sealed, light- and oxygen-resistant container in a cool, dry place

Ingredients (per softgel)

Non-medicinal ingredients: beeswax, gelatin (encapsulating agent), non-GMO sunflower lecithin, organic olive oil.
