VITAMIN A ARE FOUND TO RESOLVE THE VICIOUS CIRCLE
  Vitamin A is known as the “vitamin for the eyes.” Indeed, Vitamin A is necessary to for eyes to sense the light. In addition, recent studies have shown that it can prevent the eyes from losing its functions, and it has been a topic of interest.
  Lion found that Vitamin A accelerates production of mucin. It is a moisturizing substance in tears, and retains tears in the eye surface. Lion also found that Vitamin A promotes production of hyaluronic acid, a polymer that protects and repairs corneal epithelial cells.
  So that Vitamin A are found to resolve the vicious circle that may come from the modern society life style, and can improve the eye condition.
