We have any or all of these suggested supplements in this material.

Other miscellaneous supplements & target foods that benefit your vision;  Remember, your eyes are needy organs!  Your eyes need 25% of the nutrition from the food you eat, in order to remain healthy. That is huge considering the size of your eyes. Whatever you eat, it affects your vision. They need a massive amount of nutrition to function. Eat the following foods in some amount, any amount, every day. Always take an eye supplement, especially zeaxanthin and lutein, but also herbal formulations are excellent.

Eye Formula Instructions

Basic Steps Summary

1. Rinse application dropper bottle using hot water, each time before you use it. Some prefer to sterilize the bottle but we have not found that it is necessary over the years. Rinsing with hot water is easy and most preferred
2. Add some distilled water to the 1/8 oz. prepared empty bottle and then the Eyedrop Concentrate. Replace the dropper and lightly shake to disperse.
3. Apply drops to each eye throughout the day. Start with 1 time per day and work up to 5 times per day. The number of Eyedrop Concentrate Drops to begin is ONE drop. Each day, increase the Concentrate Drops added to the distilled water by ONE additional drop until reaching the maximum of 5 drops of Concentrate in the mix. So your goal it use these drops in a 5 drops to the distilled water solution up to 5 times per day.  DO NOT EVER APPLY THE CONCENTRATE DROPS DIRECTLY INTO YOUR EYES WITHOUT FIRST DILUTING IN DISTILLED WATER AS DESCRIBED IN THIS MATERIAL. 

Detailed Explanation

Using the cleaned rinsed 1/8 oz. vial glass dropper bottle, add distilled water. Next add in (1) drop of the Eyebright Formula Liquid Drop Concentrate.  Place the dropper onto the bottle and shake gently to mix. Apply 1 drop to each eye. It will most likely feel like it burns a little. This quickly passes and your eyes will feel refreshed. To begin, use one time in the first day. Increase by 1 drop at a time and work towards 5 drops for the mix as a goal. If at any time it is too strong, or if you experience eye irritation, then reduce the number of drops for the mix and continue with the weaker solution for a few days. Increase as you comfortably are able. If your eyes were to become irritated, simply stop using them until the irritation goes away and start over. To date, we have not had anyone who cannot use the 5 drop strength with the exception if you were to be allergic to the product. This would also be rare but of course possible. DO NOT PUT THE DROP CONCENTRATE DIRECTLY IN YOUR EYE. THIS MUST BE DILUTED AS INSTRUCTED FOR USE.

Bedtime; Using the Ophthalmology Grade Caster Oil Eye Drops, apply 1-2 drops to each eye. Vision is blurry at first so apply this when going to bed. The next morning, rinse your eyes with warm water. You may have crusty eyes in the morning, you may not, it is normal. The Drop Concentrate will help to slough off the protein shell that is building on the eye while applying specific nutrients to the eye itself.

The Eye Drop Mixed Solution can be carried with you and used throughout the day. Discard this at the end of each day. You MUST make the daily eyedrop solution fresh each day. Each day you can adjust the strength as discussed above. If using it once on day one, put the bottle in the refrigerator. This will preserve it and you can use it for up to 3 days before discarding only if it is keep it in the fridge. Warm the bottle by rubbing it between the palms of your hand to bring it to room temperature before putting drops in your eye.

After applying the nightly Castor Oil drops, lightly massage any of the excess oil that surrounds your eye, into your eyelashes and your eyebrows. It will thicken and improve both eyelashes and eyebrows. This remedy can also dissolve cataracts over time so long as you are not “too far down the line” or have a particularly fast moving type. The Ophthalmology Grade Castor Oil Eye Drops is a wonderful preventative product for everyone and not just after problems have evolved.

If you have the “lightening” around your vision when moving your eyes around or when shutting and squeezing your eyes, etc., this may be a warning that Retinal Detachment may be coming.  With continuous and consistent use, this “lightening” will usually diminish or in some cases even stop altogether if caught in time. I personally used it for this reason and currently no longer have the problem. I discovered one night when I shut and rubbed my eyes in the dark. I have a family member who had surgery for Retinal Detachment resulting in a new lense, and these were his symptoms, so I heeded the warning and faithfully have used the eye drops ever since.  The fringe benefit is that I have greatly improved my actual vision. I used to have to wear glasses to watch TV and movies, today I do not need my glasses and can read most closed caption text now.  On a side note, I was concerned about whether or not, after the eye surgery, that my family member could use the nightly oil drops in their eye with the artificial lense. He had one “good eye” and one eye with an artificial lense.  I do not know the answer to this question, so please do ask your eye doctor for instructions. My family members’ eye doctor told him to use the eye drops and encouraged it.  He did not use the Eye Drop Solution but ONLY the nightly Oil Eye Drops.  Using these eye drops for most people, will result in various degrees of success, some even complete success.

When using this process over time, customers often report that they were able to avoid having to undergo eye surgery. When to expect results is variable and it depends upon how bad your problem is and maybe how long you have had it. Regardless, I truly believe this is SO WORTH the try.  Just keep doing it and do not lapse. Expect your overall vision to improve with time. I personally do not wear my glasses anymore. I could see near but not far and had a stigmatism so I had to squint and had a halo around things at times. At night I still wear glasses to drive or when driving in unfamiliar areas so I can read signs a little sooner. The difference is the degree of need compared to before I started using the drops. It is perfectly fine to keep using the drops daily as you move forward even after stopping the Eye Drop Concentrate drops. I would also suggest that you continue with the Lutein Zeaxanthin permanently. This will help protect your eyes from blue light from computer exposure too. Hyaluronic Acid is a new addition to the suggestions for better vision. The lubrication directly to the eye is important. HA starts to diminish around 25 years of age and gradually reduces with again, similar to Collagen. Matter of fact, it works with Collagen and is also beneficial as an anti-aging product for your skin. As we get wrinkles over time, the HA is reducing too, not just the Collagen. As the HA reduces, besides wrinkles, we begin to “deflate”. This is the pad beneath our skin that gives our face its firmer plump shape. Losing HA results in sagging. Collagen builds the protein in our skin, HA supports hydration and plumps our overall pad under the skin. These benefits are also directly beneficial to our eyes functions.

After you make progress with the Castor Oil Eye Drops and your vision has improved or cataracts have been reduced or gone, you can discontinue using them. Personally, I have continued to use them. The Oil Drops make my overall vision just more clear. I like the way my eyes feel every morning and I do a lot of computer work so I need the support. So, you do not need to stop using them if you wish to continue.  Most find that when using the Eye Drop Liquid Concentrate, after 2 months, you can reduce your use or minimize how many days per week or the strength and continue to support the eyes. Results are our only goal. There is no need to apply more than 5 times daily using a 5-drop-dilution in the vial. 5 drops is suggested as the strongest solution for repeated use. Some have experimented and used less application per day, even 1-2 times and increase the drops. All of this is individual. It is ok to increase the strength by another 2-3 drops only, so long as you do not have irritation. As with most health things, it can be very individual. Even using these Concentrate Drops once daily is better than not at all. If using multiple applications daily and carrying the bottle with you at room temperature all day, simply discard at the end of the day, rinse the bottle and set it out next to your sink for making the fresh product in the morning.

Be sure to wear sunglasses during high sun hours every day when outside, especially if you have cataracts. Exposure to high sun light is known to cause cataracts and is probably why most people get them. Cataracts can also be caused by certain prescription medications including prednisone or steroids. The Ophthalmology Grade Caster Oil Eye Drops can be applied to dog’s eyes. Dog’s of course cannot wear sunglasses and when spending a lot of time out of doors, or just with aging, also experience the development of cataracts. Putting them in a bedtime is best for them as well since eyesight is temporarily blurry and it gives the product time to remain mostly undisturbed while they sleep. If your dog or a cat, has eye inflammation, this is an excellent product to use for them. In the morning just use a warm cloth and clean the eyes and fur around the eyes. A high grade castor oil such as this one that we are using, is safe for pets too and can be used for children if needed. It is a wonderful product for so many reasons.
