HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Herbal Eyebright 480 mg by Wonder Laboratories

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • “Eyebright” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (480 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains one active ingredient: eyebright extract at 480 mg per capsule. Eyebright has been used traditionally to support eye and sinus health, though the supplement also includes inactive ingredients like vegetable cellulose, gelatin, silica, and vegetable magnesium stearate — the usual capsule fillers and binders.

Does it work?

Not established
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Eyebright's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: eye health and vision support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Asthenopia (eye strain), Conjunctivitis, Allergic rhinitis (hay fever), eye irritation, eye redness, nasal congestion.
  • The closest evidence on file: Eyebright is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Eyebright is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Asthenopia (eye strain), Conjunctivitis.

The evidence for eyebright is thin. Our data shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for allergic rhinitis (hay fever), cancer, common cold, cough, pharyngitis, or rhinosinusitis — the conditions it's most often sold for.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work, just that the clinical evidence isn't solid enough for us to confirm it does.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Eyebright

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Taken by mouth, eyebright has been reported to cause confusion, headache, nausea, constipation, cough, shortness of breath, and nasal congestion in some people. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and breastfeeding — there isn't enough information to know it's safe in those situations, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing before using this product.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Eyebright.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 86 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Check your antidiabetes medications (insulin, metformin, and similar drugs) before starting this product — eyebright may increase the risk of low blood sugar. Use the medication checker below to confirm your exact prescriptions aren't flagged.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Eyebright extract is generally well tolerated orally in small amounts, but the evidence for what it actually does is lacking. If you take diabetes medications, check your specific drugs before starting — low blood sugar risk is a real consideration.

Pregnant or breastfeeding? Skip this one until you've talked it over with your pharmacist.

Herbal Eyebright 480 mg by Wonder Laboratories: Common Questions

Does Herbal Eyebright 480 mg by Wonder Laboratories interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Herbal Eyebright 480 mg has a known interaction with 86 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Herbal Eyebright 480 mg contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data advises against it. There isn't enough information to know whether eyebright is safe during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
What are the side effects?
Some people report confusion, headache, nausea, and constipation. Others have experienced cough, shortness of breath, and nasal congestion when taking eyebright by mouth.
Does eyebright actually work for hay fever or colds?
We don't have enough reliable evidence to confirm it does. The data shows insufficient evidence to rate eyebright for allergic rhinitis, common cold, cough, pharyngitis, or other upper respiratory conditions it's often marketed for.
Is this safe to use in the eye?
No. The safety notes caution against putting eyebright directly in the eye, especially homemade or non-sterile versions. Taking it by mouth (as this capsule does) is a different story, but eye drops are risky.
I take diabetes medication — should I use this?
Talk to your pharmacist first. Animal research suggests eyebright lowers blood sugar, so there's a moderate risk it could increase low-blood-sugar episodes when combined with diabetes drugs. The medication checker on this page can flag your exact prescriptions.
