Advanced Vision Formula from Advanced Bionutritionals is promoted as containing astaxanthin, discovered by Johns Hopkins researchers to be able to reach eye tissues despite the blood-retinal barrier, which excludes many substances, much like the blood-brain barrier. This is especially valuable because astaxanthin has 10 times higher potency than related antioxidants. The supplement contains 15 nutraceuticals: 1,126 mcg Vitamin A (as mixed carotenoids from D. salina providing zeaxanthin, beta-cryptoxanthin, lutein, beta-carotene, and alpha-carotene); 240 mg Vitamin C; 15 mg Zinc picolinate; 300 mg Citrus Bioflavonoid Complex; 120 mg Bilberry fruit extract; 120 mg Ginkgo leaf extract: 50 mg Grape seed extract; 250 mg Taurine; 200 mg N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine; 50 mg Alpha Lipoic Acid; 10 mg Lutein; 3 mg Zeaxanthin; 4 mg Astaxanthin; 250 mg Citicoline; and 400 mg Beta Glucan. How would you rank overall effectiveness of the Advanced Vision Formula compared to ReVision or Dr. Allan Spreen’s OcuXanthin for serious eye problems?

If other vision-enhancing supplements besides Vision Essentials Ultra are used, would it still be advantageous to add saffron to the others? Is that particularly helpful, as clinical research supports using saffron for promoting retinal health?
