Not only are eyes the window to the soul, they’re also a strong indicator of our dog’s overall health. Dog’s just like humans, suffer from degenarative vision. As dogs grow older, they may suffer from nuclear sclerosis, macular degeneration or cataracts. All of these diseases contribute to vision loss in dogs and therefore a lesser quality of life. Fortunately a preventative health regimen can increase dog’s ocular health even into their golden years.
By including Merrick’s Vision Elements in your dog’s daily diet you are providing supportive nutrients. Primarily made from rice, sweet potato, carrot and marigold, Merrick’s Vision Elements are naturally orange in color and provide a large does of antioxidants, beta-carotene and lutein.
Healthy vision is related to the individual parts of the eye - the cornea, iris, macula, lens, optic nerve, pupil, retina and vitreous humor - and is supported by daily nutrition that includes antioxidants, beta-carotene and lutein. And daily nutrition that includes antioxidants, beta-carotene and lutein supports healthy vision. Marigolds are an abundant source of lutein while carrots are an excellent source of antioxidant compounds, as well as the richest source of pro-vitamin A carotenes. This combination supports the health of the individual parts of your dogs eye.
