Improve your overall eye health! Lipoic acid has been discovered to prevent the formation of cataracts in the eye. Cataracts are usually formed because of oxidative stress in the eye lens, and Lipoic acid counteracts oxidative stress. Lipoic acid also has been found to improve conditions for people suffering from glaucoma, a vision disease.
