For all things canine cataract
Vitamin A and its precursor beta carotene act as powerful antioxidants that destroy carcinogens and support the immune system. Vitamin B complex (which includes folic acid) and B2 (otherwise known as riboflavin) are important to eye health, but Vitamins C and E, combined with Vitamin A, are the real powerhouses when it comes to your dog's vision problems. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that protects other antioxidants, like Vitamin E, and supports your dog's immune system by stimulating the production of antiviral substances and white blood cells. As an antioxidant, Vitamin C fights the effects of free radicals and lowers your dog's risk of developing cataracts. Vitamin E is also a powerful, free radical fighting antioxidant that works in concert with Vitamin C to support your dog's vision health.
