Since then extensive research has identified the specific vital ingredients in Bilberry and verified their beneficial actions for the eyes and circulatory system. Bilberry is high in a substance called flavonoids, chemically known as polyphenols. Bilberry's flavonoids are anthocyanosides that enhance microcirculation throughout the body. Research has shown this effect to be particularly noticeable in the delicate blood vessels supplying the retina of the eye. The retina is where the major functions of vision occur.

As a supplement, Bilberry plays an important role in improving and maintaining eye health. Bilberry is a common treatment for many varieties of retinopathy, a disorder in which the intricate blood vessels and nerves of the retina are damaged. In France, bilberries have been prescribed since 1945 for diabetic retinopathy, a major cause of blindness in diabetics.

Numerous studies have documented Bilberry's usefulness as a medicinal herb. One study concluded that bilberry extract used in conjunction with Vitamin E prevented the progression of cataracts in 48 of 50 patients suffering from cataracts. In an Italian study, bilberry's flavonoids lowered cholesterol levels and improved circulation. Bilberry has been used in treatments for glaucoma, macular degeneration, eye fatigue, poor night vision and nearsightedness.
