Genuine AREDS 2 PreserVision by Bausch + Lomb — the clinically-formulated eye supplement designed to slow the progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The formula UK opticians actually recommend, available in three pack sizes from our specialist sister site Areds2Shop.
If your optician has mentioned AREDS 2 or you're researching options for AMD, you're in the right place. Here's the quick rundown of what's available, why we run AREDS 2 from a specialist site, and how to get hold of it without paying over the odds.
45-day supply at the standard two-a-day dose. Ideal for first-timers and trial use.
60-day supply. The sensible monthly-rhythm pack for ongoing daily use.
105-day supply. The serious long-term pack — best price per capsule.
AREDS 2 is the formula from the National Eye Institute's landmark study, and PreserVision is the version made by Bausch + Lomb — the 170-year-old eye-care specialist that was involved in the original research. It contains the exact nutrient combination clinically shown to slow AMD progression: lutein, zeaxanthin, vitamins C and E, zinc and copper, all at the right doses.
A lot of "eye health" multivitamins on UK shelves contain a few of these ingredients at much lower doses, mixed with a lot of other stuff. Those aren't the same product. If your optician has specifically said AREDS 2, they mean the AREDS 2 formula at AREDS 2 doses.

AREDS 2 is a long-term commitment for the people taking it — usually on the advice of an optician, often after an AMD diagnosis. It deserves a specialist home rather than being buried among general US imports.
That's why we set up Areds2Shop.co.uk — a dedicated UK site focused entirely on AREDS 2 PreserVision. Same direct-from-US sourcing, same VAT-registered operation, same care behind it. Every page, every guide, every bit of content is built around eye health.
Same standards. Same trust. Just the right home for it.
Like JTH Imports, Areds2Shop imports stock in proper UK consignments, pays duties and VAT at the wholesale level, and holds genuine US product in UK warehousing. That means no customs charges or handling fees on your doorstep — ever. The price you see at checkout is the price you pay.
The 90-capsule pack is good if you're new to AREDS 2 and want to try it for a few weeks. The 120-pack fits a monthly cadence and is the most popular. The 210-pack is the best value per capsule and saves the hassle of reordering every couple of months — good for established users who know they're sticking with it.
Yes — 100% genuine, sealed, original US packaging. The AREDS 2 PreserVision formula as it appears in any Walgreens or CVS in the States. Imported in bulk consignments by the same operation that runs JTH Imports.
No. Never. Areds2Shop holds UK stock — your parcel ships domestically by Royal Mail. The price shown at checkout is the price you pay. No doorstep surprises.
Two softgels per day — ideally one with breakfast and one with dinner, both taken with food. Talk to your optician or GP before starting if you're on other supplements or medications, since the zinc dose is properly therapeutic.
Areds2Shop dispatches twice a week, same as JTH Imports — most parcels arrive within 2-4 working days of dispatch via free Royal Mail Tracked.
