PROFESSIONAL FORMULAS<br />

FOR OCULAR NUTRITION


VISIONARY NUTRITION<br />

Since 2001, <strong>Vitamin</strong> <strong>Science</strong> has developed<br />

innovative professional formulas for ocular nutrition.<br />

Today, we offer the greatest selection of conditionspecific<br />

eye vitamins, allowing doctors to create<br />

customized therapy plans based on patients’ budget,<br />

medical and family history, and current eye health.<br />

<strong>Vitamin</strong> <strong>Science</strong> supplements are made in<br />

GMP-certified facilities to a superior quality standard.<br />

We help eye doctors help their patients with the<br />

world’s best ocular nutrition.<br />

All <strong>Vitamin</strong> <strong>Science</strong> supplements are independently<br />

tested for potency, safety and purity – our proof that<br />

your patients will get the exact ocular nutrition you<br />

want them to get.


WHAT IS cGMP?<br />

cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practices) is a set<br />

of guidelines set by the FDA and NSF International to<br />

ensure that nutritional supplements are safe, clean and<br />

effective. <strong>Vitamin</strong> <strong>Science</strong>’s cGMP certification covers:<br />

• Staff training<br />

• Raw material receiving<br />

• Facility cleanliness<br />

• Equipment sanitation<br />

• Machinery maintenance<br />

• Record keeping<br />

We Are First<br />

<strong>Vitamin</strong> <strong>Science</strong> pioneered many of<br />

today’s most popular targeted eye<br />

vitamins. We have even<br />

correctly anticipated<br />

and developed<br />

formulas before<br />

strong clinical<br />

trials proved<br />

them to be<br />

effective.
