There is no revolution in here. Just a list of eye problems with a long text associated with. And a naturist - ayurvedic plant list to make the new ager feel better. I just hope you don't break your real treatment to rely on oregano.

This is a great book for anyone who is concerned about maintaining good quality eyesight. The author describes the anatomy and physiology of the eye and discusses in depth the various common eye diseases. He gives both the conventional treatments and the natural medicine treatments. He also discusses ways these various diseases can be prevented. The book is written from a nutritional standpoint as the author is into both eye care and nutrition. This is a interesting and informative book. He is quite comprehensive and covers the subject well. I recommended it for anyone who is interested in nutritional approaches for healing and preserving their eyesight. -- Valerie Lull, Author, Ten Healthy Teas

Tremendously repetitive, so much so that I thought there was something wrong with my Kindle. There is what appears to be good advice on nutrition, but please don't kid yourself into thinking that he promises any kind of cures. For someone so confident that his diet recommendations reverse eye problems, he spent a surprising amount of time covering traditional medical surgeries and treatments.

excellent reference for an introduction to everything eye. the author shares extensively in a way that allows the reader to us the volume as a reference book (skipping to the chapter that most suits their needs) or cover to cover. Reading this book cover to cover will repeat certain concepts. But this makes sense because this book reads quite a bit like a textbook but truly appears to be written to be an easy reference book (well written indexes, bibliography, and other tidbits at the end). Certain paragraphs seemed a somewhat opinionated rather than absolute truths. But I like that in a book like this, gets one thinking about the topic and consulting oneself about their own take on the topic given the information available. The eye is such an environmentally sensitive thing (can't see without light but damage comes from too much light, completely subject to proper lubrication and pressure, et cetera) in ways this book shone a light on with excellent imagery both in word and picture.
