Oxidative stress may be a risk factor for glaucoma, and many previous reports have suggested that antioxidants could be a promising treatment. Here, we investigated the effects of a novel supplement containing three food-derived antioxidants (hesperidin, crocetin, and Tamarindus indica ) on markers of oxidative stress in patients with glaucoma.
