  14. Prevention of Macular Degeneration Using Vitamins

    Supplements are very important if you have a degenerative eye disease, or if these diseases run in your family. Over 60 years of research, and thousands of peer-reviewed papers have shown that supplements alone will slow the progression of eye disease, but they will not stop the progression, and...

  15. The Reality of Macular Pseudoholes

    Macular pseudoholes; macular holes; macular fold; macular tear; epiretinal membrane. The ophthalmologists consider all of the above as very different and distinct problems, but we have come to see that they are all simply different forms of structural degeneration of the retina, and are more…

  19. If You Do Nothing, What Are The Risks of Bleeding?

When they were first diagnosed their doctor told them that there was nothing that could be done to stop the vision loss or restore lost vision....

  20. Wet and Dry Macular Degeneration Are The Same Thing

    We address the confusion some people have about wet versus dry macular degeneration. Hint: they are the same disease. All wet macular degeneration begins as dry macular degeneration. Wet (or exudative) macular degeneration is a more advanced stage of dry (non-exudative) macular degeneration. The...

  21. Does It Help To Join A Clinical Trial?

    Losing your memory? Afraid of where this is leading to as you age? We propose that you have two choices: (1.) Wait for medicine to develop a drug or some other magic bullet.

  27. Knowing How the Three Kinds of Minerals Affects You.

    You need minerals. You need a mineral supplement that is separate from and taken separately from your vitamins.

  28. Can You Help Your Eyes With More Oxygen?

    Yes, more oxygen helps your eyes. There are so many ways to do this. We have seen people with macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt disease benefit from a regular practice of mindful breathing, breathing slower and more fully than you usually do. People also report benefits…

    more
  29. When is the Best Time To Take Taurine?

    Taurine is in the basic protocol of eye supplements in the Better Eye Health Program™ because it is a raw material the body needs to repair and regenerate eye cells. Much of the regeneration and repair the body does occurs when we sleep, so we recommend you take taurine before bedtime, so it is…

    more
  30. Can You Do Eye Exercises Twice a Day?

    We recommend you do the eye health exercises in the Better Eye Health Program™ once a day, five days a week to start. If you want to do these exercises twice a day please do. No harm. Some people find these exercises relaxing, and will repeat them if stressed, or before bed to help sleep. If you...

  31. Can Caffeine Decrease Blood Flow to the Eyes?

    Caffeine is a complex drug. It can both decrease and increase blood flow to the eyes and brain. For most, the stimulation caused by caffeine leads to an increase in sympathetic activity in our nervous system, which tends to decrease blood flow to the eyes and brain.

  32. Can Taurine Cause Insomnia

    Taurine is an amino acid critical for rebuilding cells in the retina. It is often used to support healthy sleep. If you feel that taurine is affecting your sleep, please consult with your practitioner, as it is more likely that there is another explanation to be found.

  33. Do Computer Screens Cause Eye Strain?

    Modern LED flatscreen TVs and computer screens and the new LED lighting that is now widely used all cause a particular type of strain in the eyes. Bright screens and lighting cause some strain, but LED lighting can actually be harmful to the eyes. Harmful radiation comes from the blue LEDs found…

    more
  34. Do You Need Bilberry?

    The ideas many people have about the need for bilberry for eye health are, to put it mildly, pretty confused. Bilberries are simply a wild variety of blueberries. The frozen wild blueberries or organic blueberries in our local Trader Joe's food store have a nutritional profile very similar to...

  35. Do We Need More DHA?

    Everyone needs DHA, and most of us need more than we are getting. DHA is one of the essential fatty acids, meaning human beings need to eat it, since they cannot make it. DHA is an omega-3 essential fatty acid with a carbon chain containing 20 carbon atoms. (The "docosa" in docosahexaenoic acid...

  36. Using Gingko Biloba for Eye Improvement

If your intention is to regenerate your retina and restore vision, you need more than...

  37. Using the Better Eye Health Protocol: Taurine – BEH Podcast

    Taurine is an amino acid the body uses to build proteins and enzymes. The highest concentrations of taurine in human beings are found in the eye and the heart. Animal proteins are the best foods to eat to find taurine. Taurine is classified as a "conditionally essential" amino acid, meaning the...

  38. Using the Better Eye Health Protocol: Minerals – BEH Podcast

    DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) is a long-chain omega-3 essential fatty acid. The word "essential" in human nutrition means you need to eat it, since you cannot make it. The cells of the brain and retina are 50% fatty acids by weight, and half of that is DHA. Half! This means one quarter of your brain...

  39. Using the Better Eye Health Protocol: Liquid Vitamins

    Since the 1950s, ophthalmologists have done the following: (1.) When they make a new diagnosis of macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa or Stargardt disease, they tell the person that they are very sorry, but they have nothing to offer, and their vision will continue to deteriorate. (2.)...

  40. Using the Better Eye Health Protocol: Super DHA – BEH Podcast

    Supplements are an important part of the Better Eye Health Program™. (Necessary, but not sufficient) Minerals are best taken away from foods and other vitamins. We use mineral supplements that are very soluble and very well absorbed, even if your gut is less than 100% healthy. Minerals like this...

  41. Is It Safe To Eat Fish?

    Fish are an excellent food source for the essential fatty acids and DHA needed for eye health. Yet as the oceans become increasingly polluted, there are concerns about the safety of fish as food. We discuss the pros and cons of eating fish. Our conclusion? There are still fish available where the...

  42. Is Lab Testing Needed When You Start the Program?

    Lab testing is not required before you start Better Eye Health Program™.

These therapies also support overall health, and many people report multiple health benefits...

  43. When To Wear Sunglasses If You Have Eye Issues – Podcast

    The sun is not your enemy. Some sunlight exposure helps stimulate the production of useful pigments in the retina. Human beings evolved with the sun, and our eyes evolved to expect sun exposure. We discuss times when sunglasses are helpful, but we do not recommend you wear them every time you go...

  44. When Do You Renew The Carbon Pads?

    If you are using the carbon rubber pads to apply microcurrent stimulation for treatment anywhere on your body, we recommend you replace these pads once a year. The carbon pads are reusable, economic and very effective, but they do wear out. Trouble is, you cannot see when they wear out. Making a...

  45. When Do You Need Larger Lutein Doses

    Our basic recommendation for everyone is that they take 40 mg of lutein daily if the product they are using is sourced from the FloraGlo® company in Europe. It is sourced from a different manufacturer, then we recommend 80 mg each day. Lutein helps restore the pigment layer of the retina. If...

  46. Best Way To Breathe When Doing BEH Exercises

    The eye health exercises in the Better Eye Health Program™ are designed to increase mobility in the head, neck and upper chest.

  47. What You Do When You Don’t See Flashing

    This topic is only of interest to those people with macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa or Stargardt disease using microcurrent stimulation to support the health of their eyes.

  48. How Much Microcurrent Stimulation Do I Need Every Day?

    If you are doing microcurrent stimulation as part of the therapy for your eyes, do the minimum recommended by your practitioner. Most practitioners recommend 20 minutes of treatment twice a day. If you are using the newer automatic unit from MicroStim®, the unit is programmed to deliver a...
