Christopher's Original Formulas Herbal Eyebright, 1 fl oz - Natural Eye Wellness

Wow. I’m completely sold on Dr Christopher’s Herbal Eye Formula. First, about me: I’m a 58-year-old woman recently diagnosed with cataracts. Over the last several years I have not been able to read a book unless I am in bright light and so have relied on my Nook for reading - I should note that I am an avid reader. Also, ny night vision has deteriorated to almost nonexistent. I hate driving at night, I just can’t really see especially on freeways or poorly lit roads and have driven over my share of curbs and center medians… Super scary! I want to note that when I’m on the freeway, it’s difficult for me to see the road ahead even with the white lines on the road and so I go slow and try not to drive at night. My last eye check up in June 2019, I was referred to a cataract specialist and was diagnosed with cataracts in both eyes along with a rippling of my eye surface. The doctor thought a prescription would help the rippling and thus help my vision with the cataracts. But it didn’t work and I couldn’t afford the cost every month anyway - $211/month WITH insurance so I decided to go ahead and get the surgery done as soon as possible. Unfortunately, even with insurance, I’m looking at over $6000 out-of-pocket which I don’t have. I was really despondent and I determined to find at least a stopgap measure. I found a website that where patients were raving about Dr Christopher’s formula and then went to Amazon and started reading the reviews; I figured I had nothing to lose. I started the drops on August 17, 2019 and then went ahead and bought the capsule supplement to go with it on September 2. I use the drops with distilled water and an eyedropper three times a day – I may switch to the eye cups this week though. It stings and it’s supposed to. I take the pills twice a day as prescribed. I’ve noticed in the morning when I wake up that my eyes are crusty and there’s lots of dried mucus in my eyelashes and in the corners of my eyes. According to an article I read, Dr. Christopher said that this is a good sign - that you’re expelling all the toxins from your eyes and the eye muscles. I noticed that I was able to read an actual book more comfortably than I had before but the real test was going to be driving. I hadn’t really had the opportunity to drive at night until this last Friday (so almost a month since I started the drops and a couple weeks since I started the pills.) I went out to dinner with my sister in a nearby town and I was very nervous about the idea of driving home - about 15 miles on the freeway and then another few miles on a fairly dark road to my home (the road I have famously driven onto the center median several times). I determined I would just stay in the right lane and drive slowly. To my utter amazement, I got on the freeway and it was so bright and well lit that I honestly at first thought they must’ve upgraded the lighting – but of course that was not the case. What was the case is that I could see again – my night vision had totally changed - not only could I see the road and lanes and the road far ahead of me but all the starbursts that I usually see from the other cars coming towards me were now minimal. My drive was amazing! I am always looking for holistic solutions to health problems but honestly I didn’t really have very much faith that this would help (because *cataracts* right??) but I figured for the $20-30 I was going to spend I’d try it. I’m so glad I did. I don’t know if my eyes will keep improving but where they are today after a month absolutely works for me if I just maintain. I don’t know what else to say except I’m blown away and so grateful for these 2 products and I highly and unreservedly recommend.

I used 3 drops into a glass eyewash container filled with bottled water. Yes it sting and your eyes may turn red but your eyes will feel better after about a minute. I did this 2x a day morning and night for 2 weeks. Before I started I counted my eye floaters 5 in the right eye and 10 in the left. In 2 weeks 14 of my eye floaters are gone. I have 1 left that is more like a C shape instead of a dot like the others, however I can tell that it’s fading. I know use it 1x day at night because I wear contacts and you have to wait for your eyes to stop stinging before you can put them on, I don’t always have time. My vision is improving as well. Hurry up and buy this!!!

I was reluctant to use this product because of a few reviews that said it burned their eyes, but after using by following the directions of diluting the drops in distilled water (more thorough directions are on their website if needed) I had excellent results. I'm betting that the users who reported such burning sensations did not dilute drops and placed directly from the bottle perhaps?. My Issue: I had black/dark spots and streaks that moved around when moving my eye and it would blur my vision in one eye when those spots obstructed my vision. Results: I saw change in about 2 weeks in lessening them and love how good my eyes feel after using. I now use in both eyes as I think it helps keep them healthy and may help with keeping tear ducts in good order. I still have spots, no streaks now. The spots are much, much less promenade and they are still fading away. I did see the eye Dr. after using and he identified the culprits as floaters. I'm speculating the eye absorbs and helps break them up somehow? More information: I did not have any discomfort in using the drops, I did follow the additional directions for lessen the sting.from website I placed here: NOTE: This formula contains cayenne pepper. Some stinging will be experienced. This can be reduced by pouring boiling water into a cup (I used distilled water as it states this on the bottle), and then adding the formula to evaporate the alcohol in the formula (do not bring the formula to a boil or boil the herbs). If the formula stings the eyes to much, you may start with one drop and build up to the recommended 10-15 drops. Please start with small doses to have an understanding of how sensitive your eyes will be to this formula. (I added 15 drops to the already boiled distilled water) allowed it to cool before using it to wash my eye. I used the eye wash cup from Dr. Christophers as well that can be purchased through Amazon. You can make a cup up and keep in glass container and it last some time to refill your eyecup daily. I also followed these directions:"Continue for six days a week for six weeks. Rest at least one week if continuing use." and drank leftover wash.

Daily use of these drops were a godsend at the time, they cleared a lot of the blepharitis (chronic), but did not fix the problem. I now have a permanent corneal condition resulting from treating persistent and extreme blepharitis over a long period of time. I don't know which treatment, these drops (diluted in water applied with an eye cup), falling asleep with a heat pack on my eye, or all various treatments combined, contributed to the damage, but I recently came across this: "Cayenne (Capsicum frutescens) contains antioxidant vitamins A and C along with the alkaloid capsaicin. It's commonly known as a stimulant and irritant that, when rubbed onto the skin, increases blood circulation and causes a warm, burning sensation. It's used in over-the-counter skin-cream preparations to relieve arthritis pain. It's also used in several herbal eye preparations for blepharitis and conjunctivitis. Yet, because it's an irritant, it can severely worsen the symptoms of conjunctival irritation. There have been several cases reported of corneal ulcerations when used in high concentrations. The herbal preparation can literally eat a hole in the cornea, starting an ulcer." I resolved the blepharitis by eliminating eggs from my diet. An allergy test indicated that I had a large response to both the whites and the yolk. In any case, no eggs, no blepharitis. Had I discovered this much earlier, I could have prevented significant vision loss and the extraordinary stress that accompanies a sudden loss like that. The allergy test was a blood test ordered by my doctor. The name of the test was US BioTeck Laboratores FoodStats Antibody Assessment. He ordered IgG and IgE tests for each of the food panels I was tested on, IgA is also available. My egg allergy showed up as both IgG and IgE positive.

I added three or four drops to water and put in spray bottle and I spray my eyes maybe two times a week for about two months now when it gets blurry from reading. I noticed that my eyes get less blurry . I guess it might get better over time. You put as many drops as you can handle Bec it has cayenne pepper in it.

This works wonders for cataracts! Over the course of just weeks and a few months, you will see a steady and gradual lifting of the film on your eyes (which are a build-up of protein deposits and toxins) just using the eyedrops 3 times a day, with 5 drops in each eye cup. Be sure and use only pure distilled water, which you boil and then add to the herbs in the eye cups and let cool down to room temperature. You can use the eyedrops up to 6x a day for even faster results (and take the liquid orally as well). For the past year I'd been using homeopathic cineraria eyedrops but the cataracts just weren’t getting better and my eyes were constantly itching. My cataracts had gotten so bad that one of my eyes was legally blind (cannot see first line on eye chart even with strongest glasses) – but after 2 1/2 months of taking these eyedrops, I can now see printed words on a page! I noticed an improvement after just one week. The halos around car headlights at night are a less glaring now also. As with any chronic conditions, this will take a while but so far it is an incredible difference. And yes, it clearly says on the bottle that it contains cayenne pepper and that stinging for a few seconds is completely normal and expected.... yet I see all these reviews bashing this product for stinging. If you really want to feel some stinging, go get cataract surgery, if you feel like shelling out nearly $9,000 instead of $11 and living with all the possible complications afterwards (pain, detached retina, off-center vision, worsened halo effect, or even blindness). In fact, the pain and inflammation afterwards is so common that a pharmaceutical company has just patented a drug specifically for the pain caused by cataract surgery! I like to think of these eyedrops as working like 'nature's laser' to harmlessly and naturally burn off the protein deposits and toxins built up on the lens of your eye (which is what cataracts are). Think of the lens on your eye as a dirty contact lens that just needs to be cleaned off – not cut and vacuumed out and replaced with a cheap plastic one as the surgery does! Some report these also work for glaucoma but I don’t think they can magically strengthen the muscles in your eyes (you can do that by exercise, though). NOTE: A “clean” diet is very important also, as Dr. Christopher recommends – full of fresh organic fruits, variety of salad greens, avocados and seeds, raw vegetables, sprouted lentils and lots of water, avoiding pharmaceuticals and alcohol, and you will see results even faster. See Christopher’s Herbal Legacy website with “herbal eyebright” as the keyword search for full instructions and testimonials.

I read all the reviews before buying and felt it was worth the risk. The first two days I used one drop for each eye with eye wash cups. Yes it did sting a little but no big deal. I then ramped up to six times a day per recommendations working up to three drops with the eye wash cups. After three full days my vision became blurry in both eyes. I stopped use immediately. It has been a week now and my eyesight is clearing up thank goodness. My conditions are, cateract in one eye. I did call the manufacturer about some concerns that other reviewers had about the sediment in the bottom of the bottle and was told to filter it out myself because in tinctures, that happens. I don't necessarily agree with that. I feel like these drops are fine for occasional use for night driving and such but pose a potential hazard if used to try and clear up any type of cateract issues. As I mentioned above, I used these drops per the manufacturer guidelines.

I started using these drops in March of 2024 in an eye wash cup and ingested. I had already stopped wearing my glasses about ten years ago but needed to wear them when I drove at night. They sharpened my vision such that I was able to quit wearing glasses for night driving. In the last year I also started using DMSO eye drops. I had a vision exam this week and my eyes are 20/20 (I haven't had 20/20 vision since I was in middle school 45 years ago!), my astigmatism is gone in one eye and minor in the other. I also had an eye scan and my eyes were healthy so using these drops and the DMSO drops has not damaged my eyes in any way.

Attention bluff

Excellent product. Makes an immediate difference after washing my eyes with this formula. Note for those who did not read the label, it says, "As a dietary supplement, take 10-15 drops 3 times a day or as directed by your health care professional". Meaning you take 10-15 drops on your tongue. Just saying for those who put in directly in their eyes! Ouch!!!

Stings like crazy at first when applied on eyes, but over the time you get used to it. I still have not removed my floaters with this, but I will keep using this eyewash until the last drop. I plan to move to Dr.Shulzes stronger formula after Ive prepared myself.

Instructions: Eyewash or Supplement. I started with one drop till my eyes got used to the cayenne as eyewash, my eyes feel nice, bright and comfortable during the day, no itching or waking up with sleepers in the corners. The directions are for Eye wash or Supplement, I have known about cayenne benefits for many years and so I’m not afraid to use it, both internal or externally.

Very pls with the item arrived on time thank u
