Our study examined the effects of selenium in treating mild-to-moderate Graves' orbitopathy (GO) over five years. We followed 74 patients who took selenium or a placebo for six months, tracking their symptoms and quality of life.
Initially, selenium showed promise by reducing symptoms like blurred vision, with significant improvements over six months. However, when we looked at long-term outcomes after five years, both groups had similar results, indicating that while selenium may help in the short term, it doesn't contribute to lasting changes.

Vision improvement
I take selenium twice a year to improve my vision. There are no side effects. I take one a day.

Improved vision
A very important product for maintaining the immune system. It improves the transport of nutrients and oxygen to the heart muscle. Sufficient levels in the body help uphold vision, prevent early skin ageing, and reduce pigmentation.
7
Decreased vision
Excellent quality selenium in a medium size with no taste. This supplement replenishes selenium deficiencies in the body. The hermetically sealed packaging contains 200 µg of selenium. It supports blood vessel strength, while a deficiency can lead to decreased performance, weakness, and deterioration of vision.
