iGenics Review 2026An Honest Look at the Label

What is in it, per 2 capsules: lutein 20 mg, zeaxanthin 10 mg, vitamin C 500 mg, zinc 20 mg, copper 2 mg, vitamin E, vitamin A 900 mcg, bilberry 480 mg, turmeric 350 mg, ginkgo leaf powder 80 mg, saffron 20 mg and black pepper extract 20 mg.

What the evidence says:

• The US National Eye Institute says AREDS-type formulas benefited people with intermediate or late AMD, not people with early AMD or no AMD.
• Its lutein and zeaxanthin are at 2 and 5 times the AREDS2 amounts; its zinc is a quarter of the AREDS dose and its vitamin E is a small fraction of it.
• Cochrane says the ginkgo question "has not been answered"; bilberry did not help night vision.

The sales page promises a herb that "Halts Blurring Eyesight For Good", and the refund is 60, 180 or 365 days depending on the page.

Our Dose Check compares each label amount with the best human study.

• Lutein: 20 mg vs 10 mg in AREDS2. Twice the AREDS2 dose.
• Zeaxanthin: 10 mg vs 2 mg in AREDS2. Five times the AREDS2 dose.
• Vitamin C and copper: 500 mg and 2 mg, the AREDS amounts.
• Zinc: 20 mg vs 80 mg in AREDS (25 mg in a later AREDS2 option). 25% of the AREDS dose.
• Vitamin E: 20 mg vs 400 IU in AREDS. A small fraction.
• Vitamin A: 900 mcg, not part of AREDS2. 60% of the NHS 1.5 mg daily limit from this product alone.
• Bilberry: 480 mg, the dose in the screen-user trial.
• Ginkgo: 80 mg of leaf powder vs 160 mg of extract in a Cochrane trial. Half, and not the same form.
• Saffron: 20 mg, the dose in the open-label AMD study.

The directions say 2 capsules a day. A bottle of 60 lasts a month.

Our Transparency Score checks five things a buyer can verify. iGenics scores 3 out of 5.

• Label with doses: yes. The full panel is on the maker's store, not on the sales page our link reaches.
• Identifiable company: yes, weakly. "Science Genics LLC" with an address in Irvine, California on its store. The sales page shows no address.
• Refund terms in writing: yes. But the same company says 60 days, 180 days, "six months" and 365 days in different places.
• Independent testing shown: no. The page claims a "GMP certified and FDA approved facility" and shows no certificate or lab. The FDA says it "does not have the authority to approve dietary supplements before they are marketed".
• Study on the finished product: no. The page cites single-ingredient studies. Its "281 office workers" bilberry trial enrolled 88, and its bilberry lens study used rats.

Correction. An earlier version of this review said iGenics did not publish its amounts and listed five ingredients. It prints twelve, with doses. The same version said it was made in the European Union (the maker says the USA), showed a 90-day guarantee, scored it 3.4 out of 5 in the box and 6.8 out of 10 in the page data, and named vitamin C its main ingredient by comparing it with a 75 to 90 mg daily need. We have corrected it.

Prices when we checked in September 2026:

• Sales-page checkout (where our link leads): $59 for 1 bottle plus $6.99 shipping; $117 for 3 bottles ($39 each) plus $8.99; $174 for 6 bottles ($29 each), free shipping. That is about $1.97, $1.30 and $0.97 a day (our calculation, 30-day bottles). The checkout also offers a 15% "Subscribe & Save" option.
• The maker's store: $59.97, $153.97 and $250.97.

The sales-page box shows different per-bottle prices ($59, $49, $39) and says a bottle "normally" costs $149.

Refunds. The sales page says: "if for any reason your eyesight hasn't improved within 60 days ... you'll receive a full refund immediately", then "you have a full 180 days". The terms and checkout say "60 Day, 100% Money Back Guarantee" and "at any point in the next six months". The store's terms say 365 days "for a full refund less shipping and handling. Only one opened package of any like product is eligible for return."

• Ginkgo: the NCCIH says it "may increase the risk of bleeding in people who are taking anticoagulant drugs, such as warfarin" and "may be unsafe for use during pregnancy".
• Vitamin A: the NHS says to keep total intake from food and supplements under 1.5 mg a day, and not to take vitamin A supplements if you eat liver every week. This product supplies 0.9 mg.
• Zinc, copper and vitamin C: within NHS limits (25 mg, 10 mg and 1,000 mg).

The page says iGenics has "no side effects". There is no clinical study of iGenics itself.
