Mr. Robert D. Bauer, President of Omega Eye Health announces the appointment of Dr. Richard L. Lindstrom, MD to the Medical Advisory Panel for Omega Eye Health, a subsidiary of LifeGuard Health.

He is a board-certified ophthalmologist and an internationally recognized leader in corneal, cataract, refractive and laser surgery. He is medical director of TLCVision, Sightpath Medical which includes MSS and Laser Vision. He is also medical director of Refractec.

Dr. Lindstrom is past President of the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons. He serves on the Executive Committee and is the Chair of the ASCRS Foundation. He is also past President of the International Society of Refractive Surgery, the International Intraocular Implant Club, and the International Refractive Surgery Club.

Dr. Lindstrom holds over 35 patents in ophthalmology and has developed a number of solutions, intraocular lenses and instruments that are used in clinical practices globally. His professional affiliations are extensive. He serves on the Board of Directors of TLC Vision, Occulogix/OcuSense, Acufocus, Refractec, and the Minnesota Medical Foundation.

Omega Eye Health is incredibly fortunate to have Dr. Lindstrom as a member of the Medical Advisory Panel. He has been at the forefront of ophthalmology'ss evolutionary changes throughout his career. As an international lecturer, he also provides a worldwide educational vehicle on the effectiveness of preventing and managing chronic inflammatory diseases including Dry Eye Syndrome and Ocular Surface Disease through the use of nutriceuticals, stated Dr. Michael B. Gross, MD, FACOG, VP and Chief Medical Officer of LifeGuard Health.

Clinical research supports findings that the Omega-3 eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), a natural anti-inflammatory, reduces systemic inflammation, a contributing factor to the irritation and discomfort associate with Dry Eye Syndrome. Also, recent studies from the National Eye Institute in Bethesda, MD found that a higher intake of Omega-3 docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) was associated with a decreased risk of having neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration.

Omega Eye Health is the industry leader in specially formulated nutriceutical eye care products exclusively for ophthalmologists and optometrists.
