I've noticed that her eyesight is failing and her eyes look cloudy (although we haven't been to the vet yet). When I started looking on the Internet I found details of these 'bright eyes' eye drops with amazing claims to success. Has anyone any experience of using them as I'm loathe to just trust the testimonials on their own website. see link http://ethos.ag/bright-eyes-pet-testimonials.php Many thanks, Sue H.

Usa writes: "Optional: Before you attempt this: If your animal is nervous, while you rock them and sing or hum, wrap them loosely in a towel where they still have enough freedom to have their paws in a natural position, yet they feel the towel "around" them. Do this for a number of times day/night, whatever, until you're both comfortable. As they get "into it", bind them a little tighter for a few minutes and sing a song or do your thing, rock them, etc. When you feel they're okay with this then go to the next step: Next step: Have your eye dropper ready to go: This works for me by myself but if you can get an extra pair of hands, that might be good depending upon your pet's nervous threshold, size, weight. I've never had a problem and it works for all kinds of situations. Next: Take that familiar (by now) bath towel and gently but firmly wrap your pet, binding them so their legs/paws don't interfere with their therapy. I usually nuzzle my nose, by gently pressing it against my pet's, telegraphing that it's o'tay! Before and after the first eye and after the 2nd eye - While they're still wrapped up, signaling that it's not a bad thing to get acquainted with - (feeling bound up without fearing it). I hum directly into their body for a minute or so and gently begin releasing the pressure of the towel. This is drawn out but some of you with nervous pets can also relax knowing that you can take your time and you'll both learn from each other. Hope this helps.

So, in an attempt to provide ammunition to those who are sharing their valid experiences, I have posted a great study on Wheat Grass reversing age-related cataracts (and other physiological parameters of aging) in dogs. This very encouraging study was published in the Journal of Biogerontology in 2005 and can be found on the non-profit website: http://www.greenmedinfo.com/content/wheat-sprout-extract-reduces-lens-opacity-and-reverses-age-related-alterations-physiology "
