Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Computer Vision Syndrome-Questionnaire
To assess the effect of 84 days of IP consumption on severity of the symptoms using Computer Vision Syndrome-Questionnaire.The two levels of intensity, or strength of the symptom, will be graded similarly, on a scale of 1 to 2 points, where moderate = 1 and intense = 2. In the analysis, a symptom rated as never occurring will be treated as 0 (none) on the intensity scale. The overall assessment will be conducted by obtaining the total score for DES. The result of frequency X intensity will be recorded as: 0 = 0; 1 or 2 = 1; 4 = 2. If the total score is ≥ 6 points, the participant will be considered to be suffering from digital eye strain. It is further categorized as mild DES (score = 6-12), moderate DES (score = 13-18), and severe DES (score = 19-32)

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Several recent clinical trials have highlighted the potential role of Product in promoting eye health.product whose structural and functional characteristics make it a promising bioactive compound in the prevention of several human diseases as well as in the maintenance of a good health status. it might relieve eyestrain in people using computer monitors as suggested who conducted a double-blind randomized clinical trial by enrolling visual display terminal workers and prescribed them product or placebo. Study outcomes were objectively evaluated by using a proper instrumentation to measure eye muscle endurance. Subjects receiving Product experienced a significant relief from eyestrain compared to the placebo group.
