No: Ocuvite is a formulation of vitamins and minerals which have been shown to help people with early to moderate macular degeneration. It has not been shown to have any impact on glaucoma.

Helps with general: eye health. It contains lutein and zeaxanthin, which are antioxidants naturally present in the macula and help filter out harmful blue light. There are also omega 3 fatty acids that can help in oil production within eye glands that support eye comfort. These can be helpful for glaucoma patients, but the mainstay of glaucoma treatment is eye pressure reduction. Hope this helps!
