Bilberry is used in herbal medicine to slow the progression of eye disorders, including diabetic and hypertensive retinopathy, and macular degeneration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe active ingredients in bilberry are anthocyanidins, a group of antioxidants that support healthy vision by reducing oxidative stress in the macula of the eye and blood vessels of the retina.
