Guest guest Posted August 17, 2003 Report Share Posted August 17, 2003 Thanks for all that info Elizebeth. I do juice, every morning, and I juice what you recommended plus more. It's not jaundice, I've seen jaundice in the eyes before. The actual tissue buildup area, I've touched it (not w/ my fingers) to see just how severe it is and it is quite built up. Like a fatty area that is more pinkish w/ alittle yellowing but just a tinch. I did, about a year ago have a terrible bout with dry eyes which I fixed by adding fish oil to my diet. Up until last Thursday I was in front of a computer (not LCD) monitor for 4 years, but I just quit that job, so I am hoping that since I no longer do that I have prevented anymore damage. I use to and still do love the sun, and I see other folks with the same stuff in there eyes as me, that is why I asked you'all to take a peak at your eyes, as a kind of Poll to get some more feedback. So, hey everyone your assignment is to look closely at your eyes tonight before bed. K? I am thinking it's somewhat normal, but regardless I want to get rid of it, I find it very unattractive and just doesn't look right, or that it needs to be there. I'm not overweight by any means so I don't think it is excess fat storage area LOL!!!

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2003 Report Share Posted August 17, 2003 No, you can not make your own hydrosol they are a by product of essential oil steam distillation- the distillate. They are very reasonable to buy. Buy the best quality you can find. Bilberry should be ingested- hydrosol used topically.

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2003 Report Share Posted August 17, 2003 Bilberries are not made into essential oils and therefor no hydrosols exist. Its like a blueberry- small, round and dark. Use vitamin E in conjunction with it for your eyes. Use 250 mg per day to protect your vision. Good luck!

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2003 Report Share Posted August 18, 2003 Yes you can make your own hydrosol. Made one two weeks ago. A Lavender hydrosol. Works with fresh herbs. You need a large canning type pot. Put a brick in the bottom of the canning pot. Fill water to almost the top of the brick. Put about 5 handfuls of herb in the water. Put a stainless steel/ceramic bowl on top of the brick to catch the hydrosol. put the lid on upside down. Put icecubes in the upside down lid. Takes about 3 tray of ice cubes. This depends on the size of the lid. Bring to a boil. Let simmer until the ice is melted. You are making a still. The water is caught in the bowl under the lid. The lavender hydrosol is very nice.
