Ingredients explained
Lutein (from Lutemax 2020, marigold flower extract)
Lutein concentrates in the macula where it filters blue light and quenches reactive oxygen species to help protect retinal cells from oxidative stress.
Caution: May cause mild digestive discomfort in some people; take with food to enhance absorption and reduce stomach upset.
Zeaxanthin (from Lutemax 2020, marigold flower extract)
Zeaxanthin is a dominant macular carotenoid that absorbs blue light and neutralises free radicals to help maintain retinal pigment integrity.
Caution: High-dose carotenoids may interact with other fat-soluble nutrient balance; keep to suggested use unless advised otherwise.
Astaxanthin (from Haematococcus pluvialis)
Astaxanthin is a lipophilic antioxidant that integrates into cell membranes and helps stabilise them against photo-oxidative stress.
Caution: May interact with certain medications due to antioxidant activity; take with a meal containing fat for better uptake.
How they work together
Lutein and zeaxanthin form the macular pigment that filters blue light, while astaxanthin offers complementary membrane-stabilising antioxidant activity across retinal tissues. Together they cover both light-filtering and broad-spectrum antioxidant actions to support ocular resilience.

Overview
- Eye and Vision Health
- Featuring Lutemax® 2020
- Dietary Supplement
Optimise 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 neutralise 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.
