Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 I had cataract surgery 2 months ago. Been waking up with crusty eyes in the morning. I guess I was rubbing them too much. Now they are swollen and red. Any ideas on what might help?

I usually make up a mix of about 2 oz of CS & 2 drops of DMSO in a little spray bottle & use it 2 or 3 times a day. Have used it for the pets as well as the rest of the family. Usually is gone in about 2 days---Lois Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Try using pure milk as an eye drop. Raw is best but even regular store-bought will help. It will clear up infection and is very soothing to irritated eyes. You cant overdose so reapply as often as needed and especially right before you go to sleep. Most of my experience is with our own raw goat milk but i recently used cheap store cow milk to soothe irritated eyes due to allergies and it worked. Our medicine cabinet consists of our milk, herbs/essential oils, and GSE -- and now i am learning to use DSMO.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Not that i agree with it but post-op they usually here in Australia supply the cataract patients with anti-biotic and anti-inflammatory drops for the first 6 weeks.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Raw milk will fight and get rid of the bad bacteria and soothe and promote healing. When my daughter was a newborn, she had an eye infection. My incredibly knowledgable midwife told me not to worry--just put a couple drops of my milk in each of her eyes every time she nursed. I did and the infection cleared up immediately. No problems or reoccurrences. Milk is wonderfully soothing and healing and is my first choice for sensitive areas or deep wounds where GSE cant be used because of irritation. We have raised about two thousand animals here on the farm over the last five years and do our own " veterinary " work with work (as well as treating ourselves) with fantastic results. I have even cured problems that the " professionals " say cant be cured using the old tried & true Ways. I found myself with horribly irritated eyes because of allergies and exasperated because of my rubbing and the milk DID work. If i had cataract surgery i would definitely be using milk as an eye wash throughout the day. Pro-biotics are much preferred to anti-biotics and will crowd out the bad stuff with no negative side effects.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 BTW i have successfully used cod liver oil as an eye drop to 100% cure cataracts in the animals and have heard of it used successfully in humans.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 AMen to that. Antibiotic drops are a must following eye surgery, AND it is vital to tape eye shut before taking a shower or washing hair. Tap water in an eye after any surgery is a big no-no! > > Not that i agree with it but post-op they usually here in Australia > supply > the cataract patients with anti-biotic and anti-inflammatory drops for > the > first 6 weeks. > > Jane > > Re: Group list strangeness ? > >> > >> Just Friday the 13th catching up with you...:-) > >> > >> First, a query: > >> Please tell me who moderates this list and how to contact them ? > >> > >> The strangeness: > >> Earlier today I posted three messages. > >> Hours later I came to the group's page to see if there was anything > new, > >> and not only were my messages missing, but others I remembered seeing > >> earlier were missing as well. > >> > >> And now...more hours later they all appear to have returned ?! > >> A very strange looking phenomena !!! > >> > >> Best Wishes to All. > >> > >> mark > >> > >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Thanks Jane for your info ..and the others here. I am reaching back to share on the sugar cures ...as I used to use it for eyes when I was on the farm. I used to attend all the local animal auctions weekly and buy sick or weak animals for next to nothing, take them home & doctor them. Several times I bought those whose eyes were clouded or worse ulcerated ...vet sometimes would say they had " night blindness " ... but had learned that one could use sugar sprayed thickly into the damaged eyes. Obviously, if the eyes were ulcerated it could not restore their eyesight but it would heal the ulcer. If the clouds were not too bad, they might have some eyesight return as the clouds were removed. I often speculated it might be partially from the rough sugar doing a gentle rub-off as it dissolved for other healing coating. (Also .. " night blindness " was generally a deficiency particularly of Vit. A so I would also give daily shots of A,D,E mix for awhile to these poor animals.) Overall, I had a " survival " rate with my calves greater than that of South Dakota State University's farming with healthy animals in their dairy and other operations. I also would occasionally buy a truckload of newly born or week or two old bullcalves culled from Wisconsin dairy farms and bought by scalpers and trucked west. They were often NOT in the best condition upon arrival. So, I got a lot of amateur " vet " and " mothering " experience. I had not thought of Cod Liver Oil for my own eyes. Going with the coconut oil for awhile till I see if it helps. So far, so good on holding off on any further advance from the " macular pucker " in both eyes, (not the same as macular degeneration although it is definitely degenerative!). I have it in both eyes but I understand it is 2 different types of the macular pucker. The one eye I had a rare operation on a few years back, but it is coming back somewhat. At 78 now, am hoping I can keep the eyes good enough to keep driving yet for our " independence " for a few more years!! Best to all ....Joyce Simmerman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Joyce, What is " spraying sugar " ? Is that a sugar/distilled water solution? How did you mix it.?

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Gerry, I suppose " spraying " was a misnomer. It was more like a bit of sugar in a rolled up cone of paper and huff and puffed quickly so it " sprayed " into the affected eye. Depending on the size of the animal and how tame they were, this may or may not take having them 1) Tied up short and pushed into a corner, quieting them, being on the side where they are not seeing the supply of sugar coming at them, and then 2) blowing it quickly into that eye. OR one could accomplish the same thing which is to get an goodly amount of white sugar into their eye by same maneuver into a corner (or someone helping hold the calf ...or if a full size cow perhaps secured in a stanchion)...is to simply throw a goodly amount into that eye. The 2nd eye, if both are involved, would take letting the animal calm down in between treatments, obviously, or if secured by someone else, then as quickly as one could accomplish it with the 2nd eye. The sugar usually seemed to accomplish the same results as sulfa powder which I had also used in the same manner. Recently, my son's family had found a kitten with badly clouded and infected eyes. They felt very sorry for the kitten but were not in a position to pay for a trip to the vet. He called asking for what they might rinse, etc. the eyes with. The sugar treatment was done and successfully cleared up the infection. I have not followed up to see if any eyesight returned. Best ....

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 hmmm wonder if powdered or confectioners sugar would work well. It would be a finer consistency and wouldn't feel as gritty. Lola Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 In that case, maybe powdered sugar would work better? I am thinking a doggie syringe for forcing them to drink liquified meds . In that case, distilled water and sugar concentrated in that might do the trick. I have put eye drops in our dog for an infected eye. Bought them at alldaychemist.com > > Gerry, > > I suppose " spraying " was a misnomer.
