Individuals over age 40 should be concerned with eye health. Researchers have opined that macular pigment declines as lutein in the diet decreases, raising the chances for age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
In one study, 126 people with AMD took lutein or a placebo. After six months, macular pigment optical density-a measure of pigment thickness-increased 28 % compared to a placebo. The research found that the lutein group had better visual perception and clarity.
