Dr. Michael Lange Optometrist talks Nutrition

Dr Michael Lange has been an optometric physicians and certified nutrition specialist at the Lange Eye Institute in the Villages Florida since the early 90s. He has seen what prolonged use of computers, tablets and smart phones can do to the visual system. A syndrome called computer vision syndrome is very vogue in eye doctors’ offices these days since so many people are in front of digital screens for prolonged periods of time. The symptoms for this form of digital eye strain are eyes that feel sandy, gritty, burn, tear, itch, fluctuation in vision, eye fatigue, blurred vision, headaches, neck, shoulder and back pain, brain fog, memory loss and much more.

Vitamins for Gamers, Gaming Supplements give the competitive edge

Gaming and esports has become a huge industry with millions of participants. A serious dedicated gamer will sometimes sit in front of multiple computer screens for an entire day or two with very minimal breaks. The accommodative stress on these gamers is tremendous. Accommodation is when the human lens changes shape and power in order for the eye to focus on near objects. When the eye accommodates it also converges and this combination for a prolonged period of time can cause significant eye fatigue. Eye fatigue related to prolonged computer use is called computer vision syndrome. Many gamers will exhibit CVS (computer vision syndrome) as a chief complaint when they go into their local Optometrists office. CVS can be treated naturally by the optometrist prescribing some simple at home eye exercises and or blue filtering lenses, taking a 20 second break for every 20 minutes of screen time and focusing on something 20 feet away, remembering to blink frequently, eating the right foods and taking the correct supplements. Fortifeye Vitamins has created the latest in evidence-based gamer supplements and gaming vitamins with Fortifeye Gamer Xtreme.

Nutritional supplements to improve gamer performance and reduce eye fatigue is on the rise in the esports world. More and more gamers are taking nutritional supplements and vitamins to enhance gameplay performance, reduce eye fatigue and protect their eyes. Gamers are willing to do just about anything to enhance their performance and give them an additional competitive edge over their gaming competition.

Proper nutrition plays an important role for anyone using any type of digital screens for prolonged periods of time. There are four carotenoids that are very important in the human eye that come into play during prolonged screen time associated with gaming. Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Meso Zeaxanthin and Astaxanthin are the four carotenoids in the xanthophyll family. Lutein, zeaxanthin and meso zeaxanthin are carotenoids that are in the center of the retina called the macula. These carotenoids are responsible for the MPOD or macula pigment optical density. Studies indicate the blue light emitted from computers and smart phones may be associated with blue light damage to the macula. Anyone exposed to chronic blue light from prolonged screen time should consider eating more organic cooked kale and spinach for the lutein, orange bell peppers and goji berries for the zeaxanthin. Lutein converts naturally to meso zeaxanthin in most healthy people. Some theories suggest that some of the people with early stage macular degeneration may not have the enzymatic ability to break lutein down to meso zeaxanthin and supplementing with meso zeaxanthin may benefit this particular group people. Most gamers are not going to eat the required amounts of these specific foods to gain the benefits of the lutein and zeaxanthin for macula health. These carotenoids will help to protect the center of the retina caller the macula from the harmful blue light. Clinical studies also indicate Lutein and Zeaxanthin will support optimal visual performance in a variety of ways. These carotenoids will reduce glare discomfort and disability, reduce the amount of time it takes to recover after a bright light is flashed in your vision (photo stress recovery) and enhance contrast on images. Gamers will experience a multitude of issues related to glare, contrast and photo stress recovery while intensely competing in a particular game. Meta-gamers may benefit dramatically from taking the correct nutritional supplements. A new term for nutritional supplements for gamers maybe meta supplements or meta vitamins. Fortifeye Focus has the exact ratio of clinically studied Lutein, Zeaxanthin isomers and Astaxanthin in one convenient soft gel. In December 2022 Fortifeye comes out with their lates doctor developed gaming supplement called Fortifeye Gamer Xtreme. This gamer vitamin has taken all of the latest science used in the Fortifeye Focus for years and added Cognizine to support brain health, memory and recall. Fortifeye Gamer Xtreme will give the nutritional support gamers need to have that additional competitive edge and protect the retina against blue light damage too.

prolonged screen time causes eye fatigue and potential harm from blue light exposure

Another important carotenoid that is the most powerful carotenoid is called astaxanthin. Astaxanthin is an amazing natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory that is derived from a specific algae that gives the red color to wild salmon. Astaxanthin has been shown in clinical studies to improve the focusing abillity of the eye and reduce accommodative eye fatigue when taken in a supplement with 6mg of AstaReal Astaxanthin. Astaxanthin also improves muscle endurance and recovery making it a perfect supplement for athletes and gamers. Astaxanthin improves blood flow to the eye and crosses the blood brain and retinal barriers to help control oxidation and inflammation in the eyes and brain. Recent studies indicate astaxanthin may enhance cognitive functioning and memory. The most common food containing astaxanthin is wild salmon however it is not realistic to get the daily supply of astaxanthin from salmon. The best way for a gamer to get astaxanthin is through a supplement like Fortifeye Focus.

Dr Michael Lange of the Lange Eye Institute developed Fortifeyes Focus Blue Light Defense in 2005 and has changed and enhanced the formula four times by 2021. Fortifeye Focus has lutein, zeaxanthin isomers (contains meso zeaxanthin and zeaxanthin) and astaxanthin. Fortifeye Focus have become one of the most recommended carotenoid supplements by eye care providers and nutrition experts. The gaming and esports industry has embraced the science behind Fortifeye Focus and more and more Gamers are now using this supplement to enhance their performance, reduce their fatigue and protect their eyes. Fortifeye Focus is becoming one of the top gaming supplements on the market. This gaming supplement is doctor developed using the exact ratio and brand of nutrients used in large clinical studies.

Dr Michael Lange has been practicing in a large dry eye practice since 1992. He has been involved in research and development of nutrients for dry eye ever since he started the Lange Eye Institute. He has seen what works and what doesn’t. With the introduction of digital screens the dry eye and eye fatigue rate has gone up significantly. These digital screens also emit a significant amount of harmful blue light. Dr Michael Lange uses a combination of 3 nutrients that combats against dry eye, digital eye strain and fatigue and also helps to filter the harmful blue light. This combination of nutrients helps alleviate dry, tired eyes and actually improves focusing abilities in the eye quite dramatically. Many patients also report significant improvement in skin, nails, and hair health. They also report improvement in joint pain and swelling. The nutrients Dr Lange uses in conjunction are triglyceride form omega 3, astaxanthin, lutein, zeaxanthin and GLA from Black Currant oil. This combination of nutrients reduces subjective and objective signs and symptoms of dry tired eyes. Dr Lange and Fortifeye Vitamins have developed Fortifeye Super Omega , Fortifeye Focus and Fortifeye Black Currant oil/ GLA . These are the highest quality supplements sourced from the cleanest most pristine ares of the world. Fortifeye Black Currant Oil/ GLA is the newest addition to the Fortifeye line of supplements and will be available end of October 2018. Dr Lange has found the ideal concentration of omega 3 to GLA for helping dry eye patients is 850-1250 EPA and 550-900 DHA along with 140-210 GLA. If over 240 lbs then you must use the higher concentrations. Learn more about Fortifeye at Www.fortifeye.com

Michael Lange OD dry eye treatment without drugs.

Dr. Michael Lange Optometrist and talk show host

1168-222x300

Michael Lange OD has developed protocol for the treatment of dry eye that works quite well without the use of any prescription drugs. Dr Lange uses this protocol for all of his dry eye patients.

The Meibomian glands become blocked and the best way to keep them open so they can secrete the crucial outer lipid layer of tear film is to apply heat to the lids one to two times a day for ten minutes while gently massaging the lid margins. Using a warm wash cloth or Dr Lange’s choice is the Bruder Mask. Michael Lange OD also says the addition of a good triglyceride form omega 3 fish oil is an important step in keeping the Meibomian glands open. This omega 3 fish oil will reduce inflammation in the Meibomian glands and allow for a much healthier clearer tear film secretion. Dr Lange developed Fortifeye Super Omega that…

Michael Lange OD recommends combination Blink preservative free tears and Fortifeye Super Omega for dry eyes

Michael Lange OD says a combination of Blink preservative free tears and Fortifeye Super Omega works quite well for dry eye patients and meibomian gland dysfunction. Blink preservative free tears gives extremely quick relief from dry eye symptoms. Fortifeye Super Omega works by decreasing the root cause of dry eyes, inflammation! Triglyceride form omega 3 improves the quality of the tear film produced by the meibomian glands. Many studies indicate that ocular surface disease may benefit significantly from tg form omega-3 fish oil in the right concentration. Dr. Michael Lange has researched the amount of Fortifeye Super Omega it takes to bring the omega index over 9%. The majority of patients that weigh less than 240lbs will only need two gel caps for a therapeutic dosing. Dr. Michael Lange states that most patients only need two per day dosing when utilizing Fortifeye Super Omega. He also states most other tg form omega 3 fish oil will need four or more to get the same results. Fortifeye Super Omega has an EPA of 860 and a DHA of 580 in two gel caps. This concentration of both EPA and DHA seems to work best for complete ocular health and overall health. Dr. Lange recommends using the blink tears a minimum of three to four times a day for moderate dry eyes and much more frequently for marked dry eyes. Both Fortifeye Super Omega and Blink Tears can be purchased through many eye care providers or on the web at http://www.fortifeye.com
