1 JUNE, 2016 RESEARCH Page 1 of 7 In 2016 in the field of eyesight we have proven remedies plus remedies in early test stages. The early results are promising, but too few reports to rely on. We have therefore marked the promising remedies with the word test (or T ) until we have sufficient evidence of efficacy. This is one our first experiments including educators in the proving process. We do so because of the excellent ability that a number of educators have displayed. As usual, there is the added protection of the safety of the remedies for subjects. By their design, no one can be hurt if the remedy is not right for them. If an educator finds one or more of the remedies valuable, we ask that they follow through with a report of the subject s experience. SUMMARY OF REMEDIES (with range of bottles needed) Adenovirus A-H 3-6 Cataract Deep 5-6 Cataracts i 5-6 Cataract Too 3-5 Chicken Pox Spine 3-7 Critter Be Gone 1-8 Eye Chlamydia 2-5 Glaucoma 3-5 Herpes Oral 3-6 Iridovirdae Chloridovirus 2-3 Iridovirdae Lymphocystic Virus 2-3 Iridovirdae Ranavirus 2-3 Macular Degeneration 6 Strep Defecatus 1-3 T Panniculitis Astigmatism 3-6 T Panniculitis Far Sighted 3-6 T Panniculitis Near Sighted 3-6 T Panniculitis Ocular 3-5 The condition called Panniculitis strongly affects eyes, although we can find no such conformation in scientific literature. Test Panniculitis Ocular tests as the cause of the combination of cataracts and macular degeneration. One of our early test subjects was told she had beginning cataracts and was experiencing cloudy vision. Two bottles (of 5) into taking the remedy, she went back to the optometrist and asked her to check her for cataracts. The optometrist apparently forgot she had previously seen the signs. She checked and looked dismayed at the test subject and said, I see no signs of cataracts. Why do you ask? Our test subject reminded her she had seen the signs 3 months earlier. The optometrist checked a second time and still found no signs of cataracts. In Wikipedia, Panniculus, sometimes incorrectly referred to as pannus, is a medical term describing a dense layer of fatty tissue growth, consisting of subcutaneous fat in the lower abdominal area. Panniculitis is an inflammation of the same area. We already have the remedies Cataract, Cataract Too, Cataract Deep which have worked for most cases, although some report lack of success. We already have the remedy Macular Degeneration which has been hugely successful, yet with some reports of lack of success. We now suspect that the unsuccessful cases carried some form of Leprosy Type, additional two the prime problem. Our experiment is to find one, dependable remedy for both, plus go a little deeper about the cause. 524

We already have the remedy Macular Degeneration which has been hugely successful, yet with some reports of lack of success.

Our experiment is to go a little deeper about the cause and find one, dependable remedy for both. Classical appearance of cataracts. Dry Macular Degeneration 525

3 JUNE, 2016 RESEARCH Page 3 of 7 Test Panniculitis Astigmatism Test Panniculitis Farsighted Test Panniculitis Nearsighted The names of the remedies speak for their purpose of helping subjects no longer need glasses. We have made several previous attempts to solve these issues. Initial tests are very encouraging. 526

4 JUNE, 2016 RESEARCH Page 4 of 7 Glaucoma continues to be a successful remedy. It is based on a simple fungus infecting the above pictured Optic Cup Classical appearance of Glaucoma. Note how the redness markedly reduces in a ring around the iris. Endothalamitis -Caused by Strep B Haemolyticus. Note how the redness continues unabated to the iris. 527

5 JUNE, 2016 RESEARCH Page 5 of 7 There are a number of remedies for irritation or the eyes. Adeno Virus A-H Looks very similar to Conjunctivities Chicken Pox Spine for Shingles in the Eye Critter Be Gone for various parasites in the eye, plus amoeba nests behind the eye that makes the subject tear a lot. Eye Chlamydia for Conjunctivitis or Pink Eye Herpes Oral Can go into eye Iridovirdae Chloridovirus - Science presents these as only in fish. The irritation is actually in the iris. Iridovirdae Lymphocystic Virus - Science presents these as only in fish. The irritation is actually in the iris. Iridovirdae Ranavirus Science presents these as only in fish. The irritation is actually in the iris. Strep Defecatus - Looks like allergy reaction in eye Conjunctiveitis Herpes Oral can go into eyes Loa Loa in eyeball 528

7 JUNE, 2016 RESEARCH Page 7 of 7 CENTRAL RETINAL VEIN OCCULUSION BRANCH RETINAL VEIN OCCULUSION Retinal vein occlusions (RVOs) are the second most common type of retinal vascular disorder after diabetic retinal disease. They can occur at almost any age (although typically in middle to later years - most in those aged over 65 years) and their severity ranges from asymptomatic to a painful eye with severe visual impairment. Retinal vein occlusion is one of the most common causes of sudden painless unilateral loss of vision. Loss of vision is usually secondary to macular oedema. Occlusion may occur in the central retinal vein or branch retinal vein. The occurrence is often referred to as a stroke of the eye. Typically subjects will either lose vision in one eye or, like glaucoma, lose vision on the sides or lower vision. With the occlusions, the body automatically produces Vascular Endothelium Growth Factor, for which current medicine gives a blocker of same. We find that the lack of the substance is the most common cause and have made Vascular Endothelium Growth Factor Regeneration Group. The most common symptom of Central Retinal Vein Occlusion (CRVO) is vision loss or blurring in part or all of one eye. The vision loss or blurring is painless and may happen suddenly or become worse over several hours or days. Sometimes there is a sudden and complete loss of vision. Floaters in your vision are another symptom of CRVO. When retinal blood vessels are not working properly, the retina grows new, fragile vessels that can bleed into the vitreous, the fluid that fills the center of the eye. Blood in the vitreous clumps and is seen as tiny dark spots, or floaters, in the field of vision. The most common symptom of Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion (BRVO) is vision loss or blurring in part or all of one eye. The vision loss or blurring is painless and may happen suddenly or become worse over several hours or days. Sometimes there is a sudden and complete loss of vision. BRVO almost always happens only in one eye. 530
