Numaquala: Supplements for AMD
Studies suggest that taking Numaquala daily can help protect the macula’s health.
VitreousHealth: Supplements for Floaters
Between the lens and the retina is the vitreous, a clear gel-like substance made up of water, hyaluronic acid, and collagen fibers. It needs specific antioxidants to protect it against oxidative stress and disease.
Research shows the vitreous loses these nutrients over time, causing the collagen fibers inside it to clump together. These clumps, called floaters, cast shadows on the retina.
VitreousHealth is the first evidence-based formula to help manage this irritating condition, offering patients and eye care professionals a safe, natural option to reduce the size and severity of floaters.

Dry Eye Examination: OCULUS Keratograph 5M
Eye Care Associates uses advanced technology to measure the quality and quantity of your tear film non-invasively during screening and diagnosis for dry eye.
The OCULUS Keratograph has a high-resolution color camera equipped with intelligent software to analyze the collected data and document the findings.
This test can also compare results to measure the success of dry eye treatment, takes less than 30 seconds, and does not require touching the eye.
