Haro Clear vs. PreserVision AREDS 2

PreserVision AREDS 2 follows an AREDS2 nutrient approach associated with age-related macular degeneration research. Haro Clear has a different nine-ingredient approach that includes fruit enzymes. The formulas have different purposes and are not interchangeable.

Haro Clear lists nine active ingredients: five micronutrients, two fruit enzymes and two retinal carotenoids. PreserVision AREDS 2: Six AREDS2 nutrients: vitamins C and E, zinc, copper, lutein and zeaxanthin. Formula breadth is a label difference, rather than proof of better results.

Haro Clear lists 600 mg bromelain and 300 mg papain per two-capsule day. Bromelain and papain are not listed in the reviewed PreserVision AREDS 2 active ingredient statement. Milligrams describe ingredient mass, not enzyme activity.
