Wanted to follow up on my mournful 'I've got a cataract' post from 2 months ago.
Saw an opthamologist yesterday and the cataract in my right eye has disappeared. Squee!!!
Beside the fact that he couldn't see any after dilating my pupils with drops, he said since the eye exam they gave me showed I have 20/15 vision - meaning I see better than most people (with my glasses on), most likely don't have one. P.S. - had regular old 20/20 vision 2 months ago when I got my glasses and original diagnosis.
He did see floaters, though. I felt that the cataract had gone away in the last few weeks because 'it' started to come and go, like a floater.
He didn't seem too interested in the supps I had been taking for the last month.
I did 6 weeks of lutein (marigold) and bilberry.
Goldenseal eye wash.
Castor oil drops in my eyes.
The last week I added eyebright as a wash and internally.
I didn't get more lutein because I eat a lot of raw kale and other greens anyway. Will continue with the bilberry. It removed the halo effect from car headlights during night driving within 2 weeks. Awesome stuff.
He did see a little irritation. Maybe the cayenne I added to the eyewash? Oopsies.
Also said my eyes were a bit dry and was surprised they didn't bother me.
He never heard of NAC drops and said there was no studies on them.
I told him about the Russian studies. *crickets*
Anyway, thanks to all for your great suggestions and posts.
Special thanks to Snakeater - you rock!
