I don't have any trouble - yet. However, I have a few elderly friends that have problems with cataracts. One has had surgery; yet is still plagued with them.

Other than senile cataract, N-acetylcarnosine may have other benefits. Although the information is not yet published, the unique N-acetylcarnosine formula with its added and synergistic lubricants, could also provide beneficial results with the following eye-disorders:
* Presbyopia.
* Open-angle primary glaucoma (in combination with beta-blockers).
* Corneal disorders.
* Computer vision syndrome.
* Eye strain.
* Ocular inflammation.
* Blurred vision.
* Dry eye syndrome.
* Retinal diseases.
* Vitreous opacities and lesions.
* Complications of diabetes mellitus and other systemic diseases.
* Contact lens difficulties, particularly with soft contact lenses. (Not only do the lubricants in the Can-C N-acetylcarnosine eye-drop help to make wearing contact lenses more comfortable, but n-acetylcarnosine is also believed to reduce the build up of lactic acid in the eye, thus enabling the lens to be left safely in the eye for longer).
An interview with Mark Babizhayev Ph.D. about the development of NAC eye-drops
Dr. Mark Babizhayev is one of the principal Russian researchers behind the development and use of N-acetylcarnosine or NAC eye-drops, which are being heralded as a breakthrough in the treatment and prevention of senile cataract. In this interview, Dr. Babizhayev discusses with Phil from International Anti-Aging Systems (IAS) some of the results of his research.
