The Reality of Macular Pseudoholes

By Carlyle Coash

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 common than different. Also we have seen all of them improve, even heal with the basic approaches used in the full Better Eye Health Program. The eye can heal, and there is Hope for Sight!

Autoimmunity and Your Eye Disease Part Three

By Carlyle Coash

This is the third and final part of our series on autoimmune disease and eye disease. This episode offers the basics of what is needed to manage, even eliminate an autoimmune problem. All autoimmune issues come from an immune system that is over-stimulated. Too much immune stimulation and your body can start producing antibodies that damage your own tissues. The key to reversing this is to reduce the number of things challenging your immune system. Foods can cause reactions, as can toxins. So, changes in diet, and a rational approach to detoxification can have huge benefits.

Autoimmunity and Your Eye Disease Part Two

By Carlyle Coash

Part Two of the discussion on autoimmunity continues. In the work to reduce the challenges to our immune system, it is important to deal with chronic infections. For many, the challenge is centered in their gut. An unhealthy mix of microbes in the gut makes the gut unhealthy, and spills over into the body, causing inflammation and causing immune reactions. Careful attention to gut health is critical if your goal is to heal an autoimmune problem.

Autoimmunity and Your Eye Disease Part One

By Carlyle Coash

Autoimmunity is a big problem in health these days. It is not the cause of your eye challenges, but it makes it harder to heal. Dr. Miller talks about how keeping your wellness – especially in regards to toxins – can prove to play an important role in how you calm your immune system, rebuild tissue and reverse degenerative eye disease. This episode is the first of a three-part series.

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

By Carlyle Coash

Tens of millions of people with degenerative retinal diseases like macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt disease hold the same story. 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. Maybe they were given some samples of eye vitamins, but nothing else. There is more you can do. Much more. Your doctor has no drug or surgery to offer, but there are proven therapies you can start now that can stop the progression of the disease, even restore lost vision. If you take your doctor’s advice and just do nothing? The natural history of these diseases is well understood, and it always involves things getting worse over time. Need a dose of hope? Read Grace Halloran, PhD’s autobiography “Amazing Grace: Portrait Of A Survivor” To learn more about the program she developed, go to this link.

Wet and Dry Macular Degeneration Are The Same Thing

By Carlyle Coash

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 leaking and bleeding found in wet macular degeneration are simply complications found in more advanced stages of the disease. The injections and treatments offered if you have macular degeneration treat only these complications. They do not treat the underlying disease, and they are not intended to improve vision. Link to the full Better Eye Health Program™More important is the fact that both wet and dry macular degeneration respond well to the support offered in the Better Eye Health Program™, with studies showing that people with both types can see lasting improvements in their vision. There is Hope for Sight!™

Does It Help To Join A Clinical Trial?

By Damon Miller

When you read about research into new treatments for conditions like macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt disease, you may hear about clinical trials and wonder if these are something that might help you. We discuss the long history of clinical trials for the treatment of eye disease. Our general recommendation based on long experience is to not rush to join any clinical trial, for two reasons. One is that almost all of the new treatments being researched involve significant risks. Until there is good data that the treatment offers real and lasting benefits that far outweigh the risks, don’t be in a hurry to try it. Second, while you are waiting for medical research to find a magic bullet that will reverse serious degenerative eye disease, you can start a proven program of treatment where over 90% of people see lasting improvements in their vision.

Can Vitamins Alone Help My Eyes?

By Carlyle Coash

Supplementing a healthy diet with vitamin and mineral supplements is recommended for all people with degenerative retinal diseases like macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt disease. Eye doctors recommend some form of vitamins for all their clients. However, vitamins alone will not stop the progression of these challenging problems. Vitamins alone will not restore lost vision. Other therapies in combination with vitamins can help restore lost vision but vitamins alone will not. Hundreds of peer-reviewed medical articles prove this. Here is a link to a list of the vitamins we recommend in the Better Eye Health Program™ protocol of basic supplements.

The Art of Acupressure and Healing the Eyes Part Three

By Carlyle Coash

In the full Better Eye Health Program™, we have perfected a system of acupressure or needleless acupuncture that we call the Acu-Eye™ Program. You learn to stimulate the points in the program yourself, in your own home. The techniques of Oriental medicine have great value in helping people challenged by degenerative eye diseases like macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, Stargardt disease and glaucoma. Acupuncturists find that an aggressive micro-acupuncture treatment program can help when the treatments are done several times a day for one or two weeks, repeating this several times a year. Doing the Acu-Eye™ Program on a regular basis week after week in your home brings results that equal the more intense treatments that require weeks of travel every year. Combine the Acu-Eye™ Program acupressure treatments with the microcurrent stimulation, color therapy, eye health exercises in support from the Better Eye Health Program™ and you have a program that has been proven to improve vision and 90% of the people who do it.
