I've only been taking one small tablet most days for the last week because my right eye weakens now and then. I usually step its performance back up using NAC and fish broth, but I heard such good things last time about Vinpocetine I thought I'd try it myself.
T'is fantastic. My mind is sharper, not that I was fogged-up before, but I don't drink coffee/caffeine; I'm feeling the sharpness of mind.
My eye wasn't *that* bad, but I always recognised things got blurrier when I hit the sugar or alcohol (just in that eye) which isn't often. I'm in my late 40's and read a LOT in dim light. (My eyes aren't ruined yet Mother! ) I don't wear glasses either because there is no need.
One single week and though not 100% (or 20/20 like the other eye) I'd say it's at least back up to 93%, having dropped to maybe 85% clarity. I could see through it well enough for fine print and in darkness etc., but there was a vague opaqueness around the periphery- that has absolutely gone.
The thing is- it has unmistakably improved the quality of vision.
(I also routinely take iodine and have plenty of fish/bone broth usually. Paleo/Mediterranean diet.)
I forgot to include another suggestion- cold tea bags. Brew a cup of black, green, or chamomile tea. Once cool, use the tea bag or refrigerate it in little plastic bag. Place the tea bag (make sure it's still plenty wet with tea) over the eye. Lay down with the bag over the eye for at least 10-15 minutes. Very soothing and can help rid of any infection or irritation.
Eyebright Tincture
★★★★★
I have tried several Holistic protocols, however, eye bright tincture has brought the best results.
In my case, I believe that the cataracts I was told I have (had! )were at least possibly caused by "trash" in my eye (left only). But after 60 to 65 drops two to three times a day of oral ingestion for about two months my cloudiness got worse. I assumed that I was detoxing that eye and after a few days OFF the Tincture, I noticed the cloudiness was diminishing.
I'm planning on a new vision exam and anticipate a result that says the Cataracts are dissipating.
I also believe that a good Grade of Fish Liver oil (one Tblsp/day will help cleanse the eyes.
Please keep in mind that trash build up in eyes doesn't occur overnight and it will NOT go away overnight either.
Best,
Larry

She is 82 old with dementia? Sometimes is more important to take something out of the body then to bring something new . I started detoxing with Pure Cholestyramine powder and Psyllium husk fiber. Cholestyramine is good to bind Mold toxins. Dr Shoemaker-protocol for mold. Actually, isn't only Mold but also other toxins floating in your body( use of cosmetics, environmental crap etc).
My morning blurriness disappeared, even if I am dehydrated a little. Also my body is overloaded with heavy metals and Oxalate crystals which travel to eyes to( itchy eyes). I have enough material for new book. Dementia is sign that body is full with blockades because of toxins. Detoxing needs to be started when you are 20 years old.
In Germany now, 50-60% of people have some problems with detoxification genes, even if both parents have intact genes. Cholestyramine is nasty and expensive. Blend of seaweeds is better. Zeolite Clinoptilolite for metals. Only highest quality. Actually, blurry eyes symptom first disappear of all nastiest problems. Lymph massage and vibration plate 15-30 minutes. Non emergency and non preventive medicine doctors deserve place in hell.

Colloidal silver kills most all pathogens but is flushed out in 15 minutes. Reapply every hour.
If she also has dementia then probably a systemic fungal issue along with other infections that are hidden. The first thing I would try is 1 to 10 drops of methylene blue, every morning. CHEAP!! It is sold as aquarium treatment use 2% drops. Very anti-fungal and very antioxidant, helped my vision when nothing else was working.
Careful, it stains everything.
Very messy if you spill it. and turns your mouth blue for about an hour. You will even get blue pee, not to worry it is not a problem. It should also help dramatically with her dementia.

You may consider giving "Ancestral Supplements" a try. You do not need to take the full 6 capsules, I am doing 2 caps a day for the one I am using. It is not the cheapest product but sure is done the right way. They have a "like supports like" "nose to tail" approach to helping heal the body. They do have eyes. I and my fur kids are taking a supplement which is doing us well, even my CKD fur kid. You can go to their site which has a wealth of information, email with questions and you will get an answer back ( customer support is over the moon great) they also sell on Amazon. Something to check out. I wish I had known about them when a family member was in much need for this type nutrition. Hope you find the help you are looking for, where ever it may come from. Stay well.

The fact that the colloidal silver clears it with one application and then it comes back, suggests that continued applications are needed. Remember, CS acts similarly to a broad spectrum antibiotic and whenever a doctor puts you on an antibiotic regimen, it is never for just one pill or one day, it is for a full series and in this sense CS and antibiotics are similar. CS is potent, but not that potent that it can knock it out in just one or two treatments and each time you do a single one dose treatment you run the risk of the pathogen developing resistance to CS.
Many people think that pathogens can not develop resistance to CS, but there are already bacteria known to be resistant to CS.

I have had an irritated eye that would get red, itchy, and felt like something was stuck in my lower eyelid. I tried colloidal silver and a weak solution of Lugol's iodine. It somewhat helped but my eye still felt irritated and looked red. I put a big drop of castor oil in my eye and that did the trick! However, a couple of months later when the same eye bothered me again, I used the silver to make sure there was no infection, and followed up with the castor oil thinking it would solve the problem like last time. However this time it didn't work, and for several days my eye grew more itchy and red. I think it may have been an allergic reaction or something.
Anyway, my husband recommended I collect my morning urine (mid stream) and put that in my eye. He used it to clear up a bad case of pink eye in a day or 2. I collected my urine and soaked a cotton Q-tip bud in the urine, and then swiped it inside my eye. Felt so good that I then went ahead and used a dropper to put drops in my eye while pulling down the lower lid where I felt the most itch and burning. It complete eliminated all of the itching and irritation, and after an hour when I check again my eye was no longer red. I've now gotten in the habit of collecting my urine each morning in a little jar to have on hand “just in case! ” I ended up needing it again a few days ago... and as soon as the itch flared up in my eye (which I believe was because I put powder on my face- something I don't usually do unless I'm going somewhere for the day...) I applied the urine and it was sweet relief. I don't know if it will help with the blurry vision, but I certainly don't think it would hurt to try. I believe it's an old folk remedy.

I have a few ideas that may help.
Is your mother-in-law taking B12 supplements? A deficiency in B12 (common in older folks) can sometimes result in blurry vision. A liquid B12 (spray or drops) would be easily assimilated.
The other supplements I would look into for eye health would be Vitamin A (not beta carotene because some people can't convert it to Vitamin A - especially those with hypothyroidism), a good fish oil, B-Complex along with the B12, zinc, lutein and zeaxanthin, Vitamin E and Vitamin C.
Special supplements formulated for eye health would have most of these.
The other thing would be warm compresses - that may help with the itchiness. There are eye masques (Amazon has them) that emit gentle heat (used mostly for dry eyes) but it might relax the eye and help with the blurriness.
I find using a humidifier daily helps with tired/sore eyes.
It sounds like your mother-in-law has had quite a few trials and tribulations but fortunately she is with her family to help her through them.
I've enjoyed your posts over the years, Mama to Many. They always are so kind and helpful.
I hope others on Earth Clinic can chime in with different answers for your mother-in-law. The answer must be out there ...
I wish you and your family all the best. Take care!

My 82 year old mother in law fell last fall. She cut her forehead above her left eye. Subsequently her eye got very infected. She ended up in the hospital on IV antibiotics. Ever since then, her eye has not been "right." (No pun intended.) She fell shortly after the eye incident and broke her shoulder and femur and was in a nursing home and rehab for months. We moved her in with us from the nursing home 2 months ago.
Between her dementia, all the distraction with her broken leg, and then Covid concerns (we weren't able to see her for 3 months), the eye issue became secondary, to say the least.
I took her to the eye doctor a couple of weeks ago to get her glasses prescription updated. That is when I realized she basically can't see out of her left eye because it is so blurry. Nothing was immediately apparent to the optometrist. He referred us to an ophthalmologist. He said she had some scar tissue from a previous cataracts surgery and he used a laser to remove it and prescription steroid eye drops. Well, it didn't improve her vision at all. And the eye drops made her eye feel "heavy."
Her eye does itch and she rubs it a lot. It gets red and irritated. I always assume its some sort of infection and I do use colloidal silver gel on it. One dose of that topically and it usually clears right up, but its temporary.
Today I tried one drop of Visine allergy eye drops. Again, that seemed a temporary fix to the red and itchy eye.
But nothing touches the blurry issue. I could take her to another doctor, but she is in a wheelchair and has COPD and she is a high risk for Covid. I really prefer to minimize taking her out.
I thought I would throw this out there and see if anyone has any ideas for what this could be and what I might do for her.
She reads a lot and does word searches. Her eyesight is very important to her. Its one of the few things she has left!
Thanks you guys!

Woke up with a very sore eye, blurry vision, itchy and just painfully annoying! It was (naturally on a Friday when the local eye doc was closed) so knowing I did not have an appt until Monday afternoon I started researching and found the Apple Cider Vinegar with the Mother cure for "pink eye" which I doubt I have/had (will find out tomorrow at the Optometrist appt). My upper eyelid is very red and dry and scaley and as said above the eyeball was also hurting.
So I followed a YouTube video where the lady put 2 capfuls into a large bowl and started rinsing her open eye ..... I did it 3x and each time followed with the Refresh gel drops the OD's office suggested. The $13 drops just made my eyes worse. So I finally decided like many others to just use the ACV water combo.
I used 2 capfuls of the apple cider vinegar in 1/2 gallon of DISTILLED water in a large bowl. Washed both of my hands thoroughly and with my hands and eyes open over my bathroom sink, started splashing the water into my eyes.....well here I am 36 hours later and my eyes are 100% better, no more symptoms. I am keeping the OD appt as I need to find out what is wrong with the top outside of my eyelid....eczema? or blepharitis?
I tossed out all my old eye makeup and brushes....bought new and will continue these vinegar eyewashes but in smaller amounts....
.I am now using 1 capful which measures to be 1 tsp vinegar into a STERILIZED (rinsed out with boiling water) cereal bowl with 1 1/4 cup of DISTILLED water. Have a wash cloth handy ..... after washing your hands lean over the sink and start splashing the water into your open eyes (both just to be certain) use the clean dry wash cloth to pat the eyes dry. Miracle cure for sure!!

Carrots

My mother (late 80's with near perfect far vision and only using reading glasses), upon hearing that my vision was off said that the 'old folks' she grew up with recommended eating a carrot every day and your vision would improve. Well, every day for the past 2 weeks, I've grated just 1/4 of a carrot into my smoothie mixture.
End result: my vision has definitely improved to such an extent that I'm reading 1 size smaller letters than before and this, without my reading glasses. And, my vision is not so blurry.
Natural remedies such as eye exercises and carrots may take time, but they CAN, over time, work to fix what ails us! Astounding advice from my mother! Thanks MoM, CAT
B Vitamins
★★★★★
I'm going to offer a suggestion that may help, or at worst, it won't hurt. The B vitamins, B6, Folate, and B12 have shown to at least improve the eye conditions of : optic neuropathy, glaucoma, macular degeneration, cataracts, and visual acuity. They have helped me with dry eyes, blurred vision, and double vision. Although I have taken a large variety of B-complexes and individual B's for over 25 yrs., I found that they didn't work well until I began taking the sublingual lozenge of methylcobalamin, Mb -12. It is a natural form of B12 that is more easily available for the body to use. 1000 mcg. Daily may be a good possible dosage for eye health. ( It has also helped my years long lower back pain and sleep disturbance among many other conditions). But, it can take many months to see improvements, even over a year. It may be worth some consideration.
