Blue light filtering lenses don’t all offer the same level of protection

Meet my dog Sam...he doesn't like walks...just like some people don't like eating greens, giving up smoking, watching their weight or wearing sunglasses. But these things, help reduce AMD risk and the MP-eye can help convince patients to look after their eyes.

Now, if only you knew how much macular pigment protection you had...

Age-related macular degeneration is the most common form of macular disease, affecting over 600,000 people in the UK. Age, genetics, poor diet and smoking are all contributory factors. We use the @AzulOptics MP-Eye to assess your macular pigments. Give it a try! #MacularWeek
