Editorial Review
Product Description
Author Marios Kyriazis brings a wealth of medical expertise to one of the most important breakthroughs in recent times to help combat a disease called “senile cataract”, which affects one in five people over the age of fifty-five.

In the past, the only treatment available for this chronic condition was painful and potentially dangerous surgery to remove the cataract. Other treatments are now available, specifically, the new Russian breakthrough N-acetylcarnosine. In clinical trials, this treatment has shown dramatic and impressive results in treating age-related cataracts.

The Cataract Cure also covers other associated eye disorders including:

  • Glaucoma
  • Macular Degeneration
  • Infection of the cornea
  • Dry eye syndrome
  • Computer vision syndrome
  • Eyestrain
  • Blurred vision

The Cataract Cure is an essential resource for those cataract sufferers who are looking for an alternative treatment and want to avoid eye surgery.

The answer to curing senile cataract is clear—don’t lose sight of it!

I've been taking "Bright Eyes" (version highlighted in a UK TV show) for four months, and although my night and day glare problem has drastically reduced, I'm seeing no improvement yet in terms of visual echoes with my cataract -- in fact, it appears to me to have worsened.

I've been trying to find internet sites where people are sharing experiences with this some six year old eye/cataract therapy, but I can't find any! On the other hand, I can find ophthalmic surgeons calling it "snake oil" and I can find lists of quotes puportedly from people thrilled by the treatment -- unfortunately, lists of quotes are easy to manufacture.

My one and only communication with a tangible person who had been taking the drops culminated in learning that after eight months of the drops, his ophthalmic surgeon informed him the cataract had grown, and he was resultantly scheduled for cataract surgery for mid this December. (From what I've read of research into the efficacy of these drops, at the very least, cataract growth is halted, and in the preponderance of cases, it reverses.)

I've thus far spent about $450 on drops and I'm having increasing difficulty believing it's more than smoke and mirrors. In this age of the internet, where pretty much anything and everything is discussed online, where can I find people discussing their personal successes and/or dissapointments with this treatment (treatment of people, that is, not pets)? Where can I find anything that isn't in effect -- advertising?

The words of Doctors and researchers (both of whom could potentially benefit from product sales) are nowhere near as compelling as those of patients, and I don't mean quotes! (Efficacy results from recognized research teams would also be helpful, but I understand nothing of that sort has been reported.)

Cataracts with Eye Drops!

By Dr. Rhett Bergeron,MD

Cataract surgery has come a long way in recent years. It's come so far that most people in this country who develop cataracts don't go blind. But that's not true in many developing countries.In fact, cataracts are the leading cause of blindness worldwide. Cataracts form when the lens of the eye clouds. Cataract surgery removes the lens and replaces it with an implant. Some opt for using glasses instead of the implant. Either way, vision is close to normal after the surgery. And now, medical missionaries may have a new way to give hope to the blind in places where surgery is not an option.

This new treatment is a special eye drop that chemically displaces the cataract rather than surgically remove it. The drops are made out an injected pancreatic enzyme, which dissolves the small fibers that hold the lens in place. It injected drops displace the cloudy lens just below the pupil. At that point, the patient can use glasses to see normally.

Dr. Louis Girard, an 82-year-old former professor and chairman of ophthalmology at the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, says the eye drops definitely work. He also said it will become the simplest and most inexpensive way of curing cataract blindness. In fact, the therapy costs just $[...] per person.

Currently, the eye drop has to be injected into the eye, so it has to be administered by an ophthalmologist. However, Girard is hoping to make it into a drop or ointment that can be administered by any health professional, including nurses and social assistants.

While surgery is still the most effective way to restore eyesight, it's possible the day may come when submitting to surgery is a last resort. And this treatment holds great promise for medical missionaries who have been frustrated by cataract-induced blindness.

The best eye drops I've found use an amino acid called glutathione. Your body produces glutathione naturally. But, as we age, our levels drop considerably. This is why cataracts typically form in people over the age of 50.

It's tough to increase your glutathione levels sufficiently to reverse cataracts. One reason for this is that your body doesn't absorb glutathione easily. As a result, you have to take extra selenium or a supplement called N-acetyl carnitine (NAC) just to raise your levels. Doctors have found that the best way to improve your eyes is to use a glutathione-based drop. Here again, we had to use NAC to make it work right. But it does work.

The best drops I've found are Can-C, made by Innovative Vision Products. You can find these drops at International Aging Systems and other places on the Internet. Make sure you use the drops for at least six months before deciding if they work or not. You can't reverse a cataract overnight. Some doctors have found that glutathione mixed with vitamin C and DMSO works a little better. But this formula can be hard to find. There's not a pre-mixed product you can buy. So your doctor has to get a compounding pharmacy to make the mixture.

And it's tough to find a doctor willing to go to that trouble. If you live near the Atlanta area, and can come by my office, I'll see if this is the best solution for you. Call my office at 678-990-5401 for more information.If you've just found out you have cataracts forming in one or both eyes, start now to fight it with eye drops. You might be able to reverse and completely avoid surgery.

Dr. Bergeron is the director of the Covenant Health Clinic in Atlanta, Georgia. For more information about the clinic or to set up a phone consultation with Dr. Bergeron, please call 678-990-5401.

"The Cataract Cure" by Marios Kyriazis, MD is a good if skimpy book, but I read the same book for free on the Internet four years ago.

The "cure" seems to have arrested the development of my cataracts. There may even be a slight improvement. I recommend the course advocated by Dr Kyriazis.

Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5Average rating of 4/5 Good information, 2005-10-10
There is much to be learnt in this book, and I believe the reviewer (above) missed the very question about how long to use the eye-drops. It is answered in chapter 5, page 27 and the answer is 1 or 2 drops twice daily for 3 to 5 months, and then regularly at a lower dose long-term. This I presume means life, after all, as is explained, one can't expect a condition such as senile cataract, which is caused by declining anti-oxidants and increasing glycosylation (cross-linking) to improve with age. Therefore it is necessary to "top-up" and use these kinds of preventative measures to ensure that the cataract does not reappear, for as we age its condition is accerlerated. I for one am very pleased that there is now an option such as eye-drops for this condition, and Dr. Kyriazis does explain all the ins-and-outs of quality assurance etc. I would have liked more detail, but there is still lots of good information contained within.

Very interesting book. Not much information on how long treatment should continue. Is it a life long therapy or what? The book left me wanting to know more.
