I have a question about lutein for your eyes.?

Question

I love lutein for my eyes because it makes my eyes feel so good and helps me see better. Whenever I go to the store to buy lutein there are 30 softgels and each one is 6 mg. I take one each day, but I would like to know if I can take 2 a day, which will be 12 mg. Does anyone know?

Answer 1

I think you are experiencing the placebo effect.  Lutein is used to slow the progression of age related macular degeneration, it doesn't make eyes feel or see better.
