Lutein, a yellow pigment carotenoid is found mainly in the macula of the eye, where it is strongly implicated in maintaining eye health. The macula is a spot in the back of the retina which is responsible for sharpness of vision. People with high intakes of the carotenoid lutein have been reported to be at a low risk for cataracts. Lutein and zeaxanthin are antioxidants that protect the retina from damage caused by sunlight. Lutein has been shown to help people with both early and advanced stages of the disease.
