Key actives per serving
- Lutein: 20 mg
- Zeaxanthin: 4 mg
- Astaxanthin: 4 mg
How to take
Take 1 softgel daily with water and a meal, ideally one that contains some fat to support absorption of fat-soluble carotenoids.
Ingredients explained
Lutein
Lutein concentrates in the macula where it filters blue light and quenches free radicals to help protect retinal cells from oxidative stress.
Caution: Take with a meal containing fat to support absorption; high-dose carotenoids may discolor stools or skin slightly in rare cases.
Zeaxanthin
Zeaxanthin accumulates in the macula alongside lutein, helping absorb blue light and neutralize reactive oxygen species in retinal tissues.
Caution: Best taken with dietary fat for absorption; excessive carotenoid intake may cause harmless yellow-orange skin tint in rare cases.
Astaxanthin
Astaxanthin is a lipid-soluble carotenoid that integrates into cell membranes and may help stabilize them against oxidative stress from light exposure.
Caution: Take with food to aid absorption; may interact with certain medications due to antioxidant activity, so discuss with a healthcare provider if unsure.
How they work together
Lutein and zeaxanthin build the macular pigment, filtering blue light and addressing oxidative stress directly in the retina. Astaxanthin adds broader membrane-level antioxidant activity, complementing macular carotenoids under light-induced oxidative challenges.

Overview
- Eye and Vision Health
- Featuring Lutemax® 2020
- Dietary Supplement
Optimize your eyes’ protection against free radicals with our Swanson Ultra Ultimate Ocular Antioxidant formula. We combined nature’s most effective antioxidant carotenoids for protecting eye tissues in one powerful formula to help maintain healthy eyesight at any age. Lutein and zeaxanthin are the two most prevalent carotenoids in the macula and retina of the eye, where they neutralize free radicals generated by environmental pollutants and protect against photo-oxidative damage. The effects of these antioxidants are enhanced even further by astaxanthin, a carotenoid cousin of zeaxanthin with unique photo-protective properties of its own.
