Yes this did help me too. I did find that one of my triggers was dairy mixed with sucrose, otherwise known as sugar... Actually I think other fats may also have been an issue when combined with sucrose. These days I just avoid dairy (except yogurt and butter) and swap sucrose for honey or fructose. Has been a long time since I have had an Iritis attack as these dietary changes have helped a lot (I also follow the No Starch Diet too by the way)Replied By Zark (Emerald City) on 02/02/2015
Dear EarthClinic, please add my vote for avoiding sugar. Sucrose sugar is a big contributor to iritis.Replied By Bp (Los Angeles, Ca) on 07/13/2015
Your information helped me too. Last time I felt the pressure building behind my eye I took 2 Motrin pills and continued doing so for 3 days (6 pills total). I felt better on the first day but to my surprise the inflammation was gone by the 3rd day! No steroid drops were used. I was so excited it worked for me! As a precaution I am now taking daily anti-inflammatory herbal pills (Turmeric, Bilberry + Lutein), also avoiding sugar.Replied By Earthy (Buchanan, Tn.) on 05/21/2016
