Potential studies and evidence regarding nutrient nanoencapsulation combined with emulsion-based delivery systems are relatively limited. Therefore, for the importance issue of health vision, with this critical opinion to the editor is scientifically important to invite worldwide researchers to raise their concern for clinical research and the development of plant-based lutein nanoencapsulation in staple foods in alleviating nutritional problems for the eyes, which has not been reported before. This is in line with the WHO World Report which aimed to overcome the challenge regarding vision and galvanizing action, one of which is through innovation and research. With the hypothesis that, through this opinion will increase the awareness of scientists to improve clinical studies on the stability and bioaccessibility of lutein for health vision concern. As our hypothesis and objectives, we hope that this critical short opinion to the editor will assist efforts to reduce the burden of eye conditions and vision loss to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 3.8 on universal health coverage through lutein-plant based nanoencapsulation clinical studies by worldwide researchers. Finally, it is very important and needed an effort to improve clinical studies focus on the stability and bioaccessibility of lutein for health vision via lutein-plant based nanoencapsulation approaches. Moreover, the benefit of lutein supplementation for the health vision might be limited by its bioaccessibility and bioavailability. Future studies and approaches should employ strategies that could overcome the foregoing limitations, of which is through nanoencapsulation approach. Something new has been synthesized in this work, "Because, every human eye, is the eye of the world".
