VetsBrands LensFocus Paste for Dogs supports eye health in diabetic canines.
If your dog has diabetes, VetsBrands LensFocus Paste for Dogs can help. It is designed to prevent the development of cataracts in dogs with diabetes and slow down the progression of cataracts that have already started to form.
LensFocus contains three key ingredients that support eye health: Alpha lipoic acid, Lutein 1 and Zeaxanthin.
It’s recommended that you start giving LensFocus to your dog as soon as it is diagnosed with diabetes. Dogs with diabetes are much more likely to develop cataracts compared to other animals. Studies have found that 50% of dogs with diabetes develop cataracts within 170 days of diagnosis, and 80% develop cataracts within 470 days of diagnosis.
Diabetic dogs are prone to cataracts because high glucose levels in the fluid around the lens cause an enzyme called aldose reductase to convert the excess glucose into sorbitol. Sorbitol draws more water into the lens, leading to rapid cataract formation. Luckily, alpha lipoic acid in LensFocus can act as both an antioxidant and an inhibitor of the aldose reductase enzyme. This may help prevent the buildup of harmful sorbitol in the lens.
Another factor that contributes to cataract development is the constant exposure of the lens to light. When light interacts with oxygen, it can create unstable free radical molecules that accelerate cataract formation. The antioxidants in LensFocus help neutralise these damaging free radicals.
VetsBrands LensFocus Paste for Dogs is a valuable tool for supporting eye health in dogs with diabetes. It’s worth discussing with your veterinarian to see if it could benefit your canine companion.
VetsBrands LensFocus Paste for Dogs comes in a 60 ml size.
