    mainly consist of luteolin-7-O-diglucuronide and apigenin-7-O-diglucuronide as active constituents which contribute in induced NO and cGMP levels reducing eye stress through relaxed ciliary muscle cells [152]. Apigeninidin can be found as a colorless derivative from the plant Ephedra frustillata [153]. The anthocyanidin apigeninidin or 5,7-dihydroxy-2-(4′-hydroxyphenyl) benzopyrilium chloride can give rise to its three tautomers, neutral, and anionic forms that depend on medium pH [154].
