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.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Computer Vision Syndrome-Questionnaire | Screening before playing videogames on digital device | 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) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Asthenopia Visual Fatigue Likert scale | Day 0, day 14, day 28, day 56 and day 84. | The participant will respond digitally a relevant present condition from None (0), Very Mild (1), Mild (2), Moderate (3), Very Moderate (4), and Severe (5) and the total score will be calculated |
| Immunitythe subject felt sick will be documented in sick diary along with the concomitant medication used (dose and frequency will be captured). | Day 14, Day 28, Day 56 and Day 84 | the number of days when the subject felt sick will be documented in sick diary along with the concomitant medication used (dose and frequency will be captured). Immunity as assessed by the number of sick days reported for each participant during the treatment period, as compared to the placebo |
| Immunity of participan has contracted the common cold/flu | Day 14, Day 28, Day 56 and Day 84 | Immunity as assessed by the number of times participant has contracted the common cold/flu during the treatment period, as compared to the placebo. |
