Glaucoma Cures: Holistic Treatment for Glaucoma

i have changed my diet to my like your own and have for some time. I even cut out sugar, wheat, and salt. I exercise. I began using frankincense 10 days ago and had my eye pressure checked. No changes. I will have lasor and if that doesn't work I will have the other surgery where they put drainage tubes in your eyes. But I am sticking to my healthy diet. Maybe one had to use the frankincense much longer, not sure.

Drinking coconut water has been effective in reducing fluid pressure in the eye, it can also be a laxative... Proceed with wisdom and research.

My intra-ocular pressure has been on the rise for the last 3 years, and was at 20 for both eyes when I had my last eye examine, which was 45 days ago.

I started using Frankincense and taking vegetable glycerin internally and externally making my own eye drops. I also placed magnets in my sleep mask and wore it every night. In addition I changed my diet, going from a healthy vegetarian diet, to a strict vegan 80 percent raw diet, along with juicing lots of organic veggies, and vigorous cardio and resistance training. Today, which is 45 days from my last examine, I was happy to find things were moving in the right direction. My pressures was 18 in my right eye and 17 in the left.

Hi, I just need to know, how much of fennel seeds should I take to help fight the glaucoma? I usually put it in a cup of hot water, drink the water after a while and chew the seeds. Are there specific ways/times to take these for maximum effect?

Thanks!

I was happy to hear that fennel seeds were of help to you. How much of the fennel seed did you use. What was the dosage? I am having trouble keeping my eye pressure down - 23/27. Thx, Ann

How to use fennel seeds for glaucoma?

My mother is diagnosed with glaucoma which has effected 70% eye. I am very much stressed. Please tell me how to take fennel seeds and in what quantity. How else can we prevent it.

How much fennel seeds are required to age 16 to maintain iop below 20. My iop is more than 25.

Can someone please give more information on fennel seed for glaucoma.

Please let me know where to get this.I contacted Sami Labs who make these drops. No reply from them. THANKS

Can you tell us which type of Frankincense oil you use? That would be very helpful. Thanks.

I have much success with vitamin c and Lutein. I suffered with the eye pressure from glaucoma but I hardly ever feel pressure now. I always took 1000mg when my eye was bothering me. Then later I also took 6mg of lutein.

Hi,

I been diagnosed with Glaucoma and have been taking eye drops from the doctor. But the last time I took the eye drops they gave a very very bad reaction, it put me off taking the eye drops.

I looked up that taking Vitamin C three times a day lowered eye pressure. Can any one confirm/advise the correct procedure and what type plus strength one should take.

Appreciated.

Dear William,

I would look for a sodium ascorbate powder. Usually 1/4 teaspoon of this would have about 1,000 mg. (It should say on the container somewhere.) Start with 1/8 teaspoon (about 500mg) in water three times a day. If that agrees with you, I would increase it to 1/4 teaspoon (about 1,000mg) three times a day. If you do not notice an improvement in your symptoms, you could increase your doses or frequency.

If your body is getting too much vitamin C you will get diarrhea. This just means reduce your amount.

Many people can take many grams of vitamin C each day with no adverse effect.

W: Any type inflammatory condition is alleviated or cured w/ Magnet Therapy. I use a strong magnet on each eye for a few minutes 3x per wk to prevent any degeneration w/ good results.

Hi Mama to Many

Thanks for the reply.

I'm new to this site and not that clever looking it up, only just found your reply, Thank you.

As for looking for any sign of improvement, I don't suffer any bad signs of having glaucoma. So I can't tell if I should take more sodium ascorbate powder or less. No symptoms as I can tell the Dr said I am a Glaucoma suspect or sufferer. And his medication eye drops really up set me being unable to take the eye drops.

If you can give any more advice please let me know. Appreciated, William

Dear William,

While it may sound like taking 1,000 mg of vitamin c as sodium ascorbate daily is a lot, many people take much more than that daily. Once your body is getting too much vitamin C, you will begin to have loose stools and know it is time to cut back.

Many people take several grams of vitamin c daily and find it helpful. We know a doctor who works in a hospital who takes 8 grams (8,000 mg) a day to avoid getting sick, since he is around a lot of germs. And, it seems that he doesn't get sick. I personally would ideally take 1,000 mg three times a day for general health but I admittedly don't really get around to it as I wish I did.

You might also look into the herb eyebright. Dr. Christopher has an eyebright formula. The herb eyebright is so called because of its positive effect on eye health.

Hello Tim H. I have glaucoma and would like to use a magnet to help my eyes. My problem is I have a shunt in my brain from a prior aneurysm surgery. Can I use a magnet?

Hello Mary. Depends on the metal. Most likely is Stainless Steel so it won't rust, and to my knowledge Magnets do not adhere to Stainless S. I would start with a week Refrigerator Magnet and look for any positive or negative response.

Generally speaking surgical implants do not use magnetic stainless steel as it would interfere with MRI.

If one recommends Magnet Therapy to someone, they should point out that, the Negative Pole of the magnet is the only pole to use if one is trying to reduce an infection ( I believe he did mention infections) or inflammation or swelling! The Negative Pole reduces, contracts, cools! The Positive pole expands or increases. A lot of people mention magnets and don't consider that the correct one of the 2 poles should be used according to the situation!

Look into Magnet Therapy.

My doctor prescribed me glycerine oil 60 cc or ml a day to reduce drastically the eye pressure, as I'm currently suffering a spike... But I can't find that (there is one to be applied on skin, but not to be drunk.)

Hello, Did the glycerin work? How much did you take? Did you use food grade or soap grade? Please email me at 333kehoe(at)gmail. Com
thanks

glycerin to release Eye Pressure. How do you purchase it and what is the dosage?

To find glycerin to take internally, search pure vegetable gylcerin online. There are a number of companies that sell it so I am sure you can also find it in a good health food store.

What would be the dosage of the Glycerine in juice and how often and for how long should a person consume the juice/glycerine drink to reduce eye pressure?

Only use very small amounts of glycerin and only in eye emergencies, it can cause heart problems! Ask your dr for dosage in emergency situations.

Marijuana drops the internal pressure in the eyball, but whether you are in a place where its legal to get some is another matter.

High Interoccular pressure in Eye. For Nicolette, NY US

I was treated for this with meds that discoloured the eye so bad, I did not like to go out as for the casual comments made.

Just by accident I found out that this medicine (allopathic) was damaging kidney and liver. I would stay clear of it. Really, I would use my own urine, soaked in a cloth and bathe the eye in it for as often as possible. Your own midstream urine has a blueprint for your unique needs. Try it and you will find it immensely soothing and effective. Good luck. Om

Oh, dear. So sorry about this. I would try charcoal poultices on the eye. You will need ground flax seed and activated charcoal powder. Mix equal parts in a cup. Add water and stir until you get a mixture the consistancy of molasses. (Careful as charcoal powder is "poofy" and can get all over if you are not careful. ) Spread a spoonful of the mixture onto a paper towel and fold over sides of towel. Charcoal is now contained within the towel. Apply the poultice to the eye. (1 layer of paper towel between closed eye and charcoal.) You can make up lots of poultices and keep them in the fridge in a sealed plastic bag until needed. They keep for a week or more. Keep poultice on eye as much as possible. Charcoal must be wet to be active, so change poultice when it dries out. You could add a layer of plastic wrap on top of the poultice and use a bandana to keep it all on during the day or to keep it moise over night.

You can buy an herb called "eyebright" which is good for any eye problems. You can buy the tincture of eyebright and an eyecup to wash out the eye following directions on the tincture bottle. Dr. Christopher's brand is one that people like.

Keep us posted on progress!

K: Very glad to hear of your positive report. If needs be, do not be afraid of using a stronger magnet. I currently use a small music speaker magnet for only a few minutes on each eye couple times per week. I also use a very strong speaker magnet for deep healing, reduce inflammation, and removal of pathogens in my joints (elbows & knees) as well as spleen, liver, lungs, and brain.

Dear TimH,

I thank you for all your informative posts. I have learned so much from you and look forward to trying the magnet therapy on my eyes.

I recently bought a 4 -stack of strong magnets from Amazon. They are still in the package. I am a little concerned to take them out of the cardboard as a warning note says be careful because the magnets can cause significant injury to your fingers if they snap together. They are Grade N45; Gauss Rating 13,800 Gauss; 65 lb Holding Power per magnet.

I was hoping you would tell us more about how you use magnets other than on your eyes. Here are my questions:

How long do you apply them?
How powerful are the magnets you use?

For example, if I were to use magnet on my painful knees, would I use more than one magnet on each knee? Do you put the magnet right over the painful area? Would you then put another magnet on the other side of the knee?

Thank you very much in advance!

S: I am hoping to soon graduate from the art of using Magnets (with real good results) on myself & pets, to the study of Magnets as a science.

So for now I can't tell the gauze strength but maybe I could post some pics of what I use whenever able. From my experience Magnets are almost without bad side effects but there is a warning to not use opposing magnets as the current repels itself and you get no healing.

Generally speaking, the stronger the Magnet the less time need application. I use that 4" speaker magnet as I posted earlier for my eyes and the large speaker Magnet also for only a few minutes on my painful & infected joints. Both do require a soft cloth or clothing as the metal can be uncomfortable.

As for chronic or long-term use I use Serenity 2000 pads and/or belt. I am currently lying on a Magnetic Bed Pad and a Magnetic Belt on my pillow directly over my spine. I use these all the hours in bed and rotate from my left & right side & shoulder to cover those areas and during waking like now cover my back & bottom.

Let me tell you a story of Magnet healing for eyes. A few yrs ago I had a litter of kittens and gave one to the neighbor behind me. Unfortunately I was having a difficult time ridding them of fleas and the new owner (come to find out) used both shampoo & flea collar which resulted in a severe chemical burn resulting in almost blindness. That owner was unable to continue the responsibility of the kitty and I took him back and was determined to do something for his eyes. Well, in the meantime he sired kittens and those damaged eyes were present in three of those kitties (all blind) one of which died and the others put down at the local shelter. Well this broke my heart and I had since learned about Magnets and using them on myself. I applied the 4" speaker Magnet for a few minutes daily with astonishing results and the kitty has since healthy offspring with no damaged eyes.

Here is a link to the Serenity 2000 and bed pad I use daily.

Thank you very much for your response, Timh! What a wonderful story about the kittens. I look forward to experimenting with the magnets and will report back with my findings.

Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving to you!

TY Susan and the best Thanksgiving to you & yours.

One item I forgot to mention in the warning category is to be very careful to keep magnets away from electronics like TV's, computers, tablets, pads, cell phones, and memory or storage devices aka external hard drives and mini usb memory sticks, as it will erase any or all info stored on those devices.

As a side note in the benefit category, immediately fallowing any major or minor injury, I do Magnet Therapy which greatly reduces pain & inflammation and greatly improves healing time.

Looking forward to your future experiments.

mygawd, I read about the "kitchen magnet" treatment for glaucoma symptoms, GOT UP AND GRABBED A MAGNET off the refrigerator, placed it gently over that eye and kept reading through cures and YES I FEEL A DIFFERENCE within about 5 minutes-when I go to bed that magnet's goin w/me to stay for the 10 minute treatment.

it is the strangest sensation, I feel like that eye is bulging-pushed against the upper eye lid and visible LOL but it's not the least bit noticeable BUT I FEEL IT and am tired of it.

was just diagnosed and cannot remember the reading either. LOL I knew something wasn't right!

Hi, Can you tell me where exactly you purchased your Frankincense? I was using one brand then recently purchased from another and it smells NOTHING like the Frankincense I had used before. I was even taking the previous internally and it was curing a sinus infection. However this new brand is no where near as effective, though it said it was the sacra species, organic certified, steam distilled, therapeutic grade.

Hi Betty, I have not heard of your condition, but wonder if charcoal might help. It may sound crazy, but you can read about how chacoal helped another lady who had "Occular Inflammatory Disorder" and was healed using charcoal.

Charcoal is known to help with inflammation, infection, tumors, etc. It would be very safe to try, even if you found other remedies to try at the same time. Charcoal is the first thing I thought of when I read your post. To make a charcoal poultice, mix 1 part activated charcoal powder, 1 part ground flax seed and water to make a jelly like paste. Place on a cloth or paper towel and fold over. The charcoal will be contained in the paper towel on both sides. Lay against they eye (closed) and place plastic wrap over the paper towel. (Charcoal remains active when wet.) Then use a bandana to keep all of this in place. Ideally you would do this over night.

Because Apple Cider Vinegar is known to help high blood pressure (aka hypertension) this is another thing you could try that would be very safe and might help. 1 T. Raw apple cider vinegar in 8 oz. of water twice a day.

Keep you water intake up as well as your fruit and veggie intake.

Let us know what you try and how you are doing.

~Mama to Many~

Betty: I do magnet therapy on my eyes to keep them healthy. Start with a common refrigerator magnet, the side that sticks to metal, over each eye for about 20 min. Daily. This will reduce inflammation and most likely the pressure also.

Dear Betty from Ft. Walton Bch, Florida: Try increasing your intake of Vitamin B12 sublingual Methylcobalim. I had pressure on my left eye and as long as I stay at 5,000 + mcg of B12 per day I have no more problems. I am not cured but I will accept the solution to the problem.

Dear Helen,

Congratulation on your miraculous cure. We thank God for his miraculous favour. Anyway, my aunt suffers from glaucoma. She has lost vision in one eye. Please help me find a herbal cure for the disease, just like you regained sight. I want to know whether you lost sight completely in one eye or both eyes. Was your sight restored after the herbal treatment? Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks for your co-operation. Kind regards, Melinda

My wife has a Glaucoma disease since a month ago. I would know if your remedy was 100% effective? Would you recomend it to her? Thanks for your help.

Please let me know if anyone can find that link to the Spanish Dr as I'm going thru a lot with my glaucoma now. Thank you.

Do you drink the sea salt or use as an eye drops.....thanks!
