More about EYEMAX-plus and the the doctors behind it.

EYEMAX-plus was originally developed by Dr. Gary Price Todd, a pioneering holistic ophthalmologist and one of the first medical professionals to recognize the role of nutrients in eye health. Ophthalmologist Dr. Gary Price Todd was well ahead of his time. One of the most forward-thinking eye doctors in the country, he paved the way to healthier eyes for thousands of people by, studying, testing, and developing a way for people to use the proper nutrition to make their eyes healthier.

Dr. Todd was guided by the holistic understanding that the health of the eyes and the health of the body are linked. Our formula is based on a simple but powerful principle: You cannot separate the health of your eyes from the health of your body. The eyes do not exist in isolation, therefore nutrients cannot be directed to the eyes alone, but are used by the body where they are most needed.  The visual system - the eyes, nerves, muscles and processing centers in the brain - consume over 30% of the oxygen we breathe and more than 25% of the nutrition we take in. That’s why EYEMAX-plus is formulated to be a complete nutritional supplement that can double as your multi-vitamin, supporting your overall health, while ensuring that your eyes get all the key nutrients they need. Every vitamin, mineral or herb that research indicates is beneficial to your eyesight also has benefits to other parts of your body. For example: Vitamin A is helpful for the eyes, but it also helps regulate the immune system, among other things. Vitamin C works against free radical damage throughout the entire body, not only in the eyes. Lutein is found in very high concentration in the eyes, but it’s also found in the liver, heart and thyroid.

When EYEMAX-plus was being formulated, each ingredient was carefully tested, not only in isolation but also in combination with other nutrients. It was found that some nutrients are more powerful when combined with others. The amounts and combination of nutrients in EYEMAX-plus was formulated to deliver the maximum benefit for your eyes and body.

There’s nothing harmful or dangerous about EYEMAX-plus when used as directed. It’s not medicine or a drug with negative side effects. EYEMAX-plus contains the essential nutrients that nourish all parts of your eyes, replenish your visual system and promote and support overall health.

He began giving his subjects – his patients and other eye doctors who were interested - different vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants. He carefully monitored their blood levels and studied the effects of the nutrients on the eyes and on the body. Over time he determined the amounts and combinations of individual ingredients that promoted optimal health of the eyes and body. With these nutrients he developed the original formula and used it for years to improve his patients’ health and eyesight. Even when other eye doctors only expected more and more decline he was able to help his patients keep their vision. When Dr. Todd was alive, he entrusted the Cambridge Institute with making his formula available to the public. (Previously he had given the formula only to his patients.)

After Dr. Todd’s death, Dr. Robert Titcomb, a long-time associate of Dr. Todd’s, worked with Martin Sussman, then president of the Cambridge Institute for Better Vision, to update Dr. Todd’s formula to integrate new research. The original formula was so well designed it didn’t need to be changed at all. Only additional nutrients were added, including Lutein, Zeaxanthin, and L-Taurine, which were not known when Dr. Todd started his work.

Since Dr. Todd started his pioneering work, leading universities and government agencies, among them the National Eye Institute and Tufts University, have shown that vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants are key to maintaining and preserving vision.
