Summary

This study evaluated whether a standardized berry-extract dietary supplement (AKB; Aronia melanocarpa, Lonicera caerulea, Vaccinium myrtillus) improves visual function in adults with presbyopia. In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled two-period crossover design, participants received AKB 400 mg twice daily and placebo for 6 weeks each, separated by a 5-week washout. Visual function and retinal/neuronal measures were assessed with contrast sensitivity testing, visual fields, VEP, and OCT/AngioOCT. Serum biomarkers related to lens and retinal physiology were also measured.
