Description

Subtitled Natural Medicine for Self-Healing, this book is an encyclopedic study guide, a download of the compiled research and experience of an eye doctor with thirty years experience on the front lines of holistic medicine. Dr. Swartwout has even included specific remedy and source suggestions in this heavily expanded third edition. In depth coverage has been added of multiple areas that will be of interest to the inquiring clinician and even clinical researchers will find new perspectives worthy of investigation. The book draws on an extremely wide range of effective therapies from around the world including European Biological Medicine. Detailed coverage is now included on reversing AGE (Advanced Glycation Endproducts) as well as an eye opening perspective on antioxidants, a section on Excitotoxins, and some discussion of Dr. Swartwout's 5 Phases of Health model based on Bioelectronics of Vincent that measures the parameters necessary to both quantitatively and qualitatively evaluate biological energy (in microwatts) in a fluid milieu. Those factors boil down to protons, electrons and photons in the author's penetrating insight into biophysics. Without oversimplifying anything, the discussion is aimed at supporting those patients and practitioners who are serious about discovering what may be possible in the realm of actually healing the pathophysiology of glaucoma.“This book is a great contribution to the emerging paradigm of 21st century vision care. It provides a thorough review of many healing modalities in order to help a person’s eye, body and soul heal the condition of glaucoma… A must for any patient or professional working with this condition. Dr. Swartwout is a pioneer in helping to regenerate our precious gift of sight.” - Marc Grossman, O.D., L.Ac., co- author of Greater Vision and co-author of Natural Eye Care Read more

VEry good advice in this book.
Format: Paperback
I have found this book to be very enlightening on this subject and am trying to follow it because I have Glaucoma. I do not want to use prescription drops that have serious side effects. I believe in natural healing and that nutrition is basic to health.

A must read for Glaucoma diagnosis
Format: Paperback
Read before you use drops or do anything. This book saved my husbands vision. The author is amazing and has also referred him to a local doctor by us. I cant say in words how grateful we are. This book is for people that can digest a lot of specific information. It's a reference manual that you will soon fill up with flags and notes. It is perfect for people in the medical industry. ... show more

flawed, but essential
Format: Paperback
Conventional medicine considers glaucoma to be irreversible -- there is no avenue for healing. This book, by a conventionally trained eye doctor, offers an alternative and much more hopeful view. After nearly four decades of struggle with his own glaucoma, the book's author has much to say that deserves a careful read. Please note: like many books now authored by specialists, this text is filled with valuable information, but is poorly organized for use by general readership. I recommend reading it as if editing, with colored markers to highlight different categories of information: 1. General recommendations 2. Suggestions for reducing fluid pressure in the eye 3. Suggestions for healing damaged optic nerve and related tissue After marking up these categories, you can then copy the most useful information, making your own working outline. That becomes a plan of action. Here are some notes on these categories. General recommendations. The author (Dr. Glen) offers a view of healing that would be shared by most alternative practitioners. He recommends diet and lifestyle changes -- eating organic food, drinking purified ionized water, exercise, and much more, in considerable detail. With regard specifically to eyes, he recommends less time spent sitting and reading/viewing of books/screens, more time looking at things outdoors, preferably without glasses. For many, following this last recommendation involves major shifts in work and social patterns. Under this category I flagged recommendations for carrot juice, mangosteen (fruit), garlic, ginger, cayenne and coenzyme Q10). Reducing fluid pressure in eyes. If you make a diagram with all instances of elevated eye pressure in one circle, and optic nerve deterioration in another, they overlap by perhaps 50%. Optic nerve deterioration is Glaucoma, elevated fluid pressure is Ocular Hypertension. They are not the same. Conventional surgeries and pharmaceuticals may treat the hypertension, but do not address optic nerve damage. Dr. Glen discusses all of this in a constructive manner and recommends many methods for reducing eye pressure, often more effectively than surgery/drugs. Here I found 7 recommendations: vitamin B6, vitamin C, bioflavonids, N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC), Coleus Forskohlii root extract (forskolin) with vitamin B6, Papaya enzyme (papain), cannabis. Healing the optic nerve. Dr. Glen feels that non-functioning optic nerve cells are living but dormant due to malnutrition. He believes they can come alive again if blood flow in capillaries serving the optic nerve is improved, along with better nutrients. If true, this is radically good news. There is no single section in the book where best healing practices are set forth, but the information is there, if you organize it. For improved optic nerve health I found 21 recommendations: probiotics, germanium, magnesium, vitamin B3, vitamin B12, choline, n-acetyly-carnosine, ginkgo, salvia mitorrizhia, hemp oil, spirulina, TMG- trimethylglycine, dandelion root, PQQ, Omega 3 oils, magnesium taurate, turmeric, ALC - acetyl-l-carnitine, AGE inhibitors, and acupressure. I just took my crib sheet lists to a large vitamin department and the manager not only found all of the items, she recommended certain brands as best value. Still, I spent over $400 to get started! Additional problems with this book (beyond being poorly organized). 1. The author has developed a general theory of healing, which lives primarily in his own head, employing terms that he invented. An appendix/glossary could have explained this, but does not exist. 2 The healing program relies heavily on supplements. This approach to health places special burdens on the liver. If that key organ is not functioning optimally, the supplement program may fail. This is not discussed. 3. In my case, a chronic bacterial infection -- Lyme disease -- is probably a factor in vision loss. The Lyme bacterium feeds on collagen, which is a primary constituent of eye structures and nerves. For me solving the glaucoma riddle means overcoming Ocular Lyme. This is not discussed in this book (see Healing Lyme by Stephen Buhner, second edition, for specific recommendations). One final suggestion: read this book with someone else who has glaucoma, or a loved one. Divide the task of organizing the content and researching what is missing. It will be less daunting that way. Hope does have healing power and this book at least offers hope, which conventional glaucoma treatment does not. You will have to work to make something of "Healing Glaucoma", but since the alternative is blindness, what can you lose from trying? ... show more

Great Information

The information in this book was very informative as I have glaucoma and am doing everything I can naturally to keep my pressure down. I have read many articles and books but this one sealed try deal. I liked it because it gave precise information that I could use and didn't have to go to another source to do more research. Thanks for all that great information. I got it and I understand it. ... show more

A Degree in Chemistry Anyone?
Format: Kindle
I’m rating this 3 stars for the content and wealth of information, however, when the author talks about the molecular weight of certain compounds, you need some background in chemistry to understand it. Furthermore, when the author talks about how he was diagnosed with glaucoma many years ago, he didn’t explain how he cured himself of it in any great detail. He didn’t say what protocol he used, what supplements he took and how much, what worked for him and what didn’t. I only found a couple of terse paragraphs at the end of the book not really going into much detail. It is obvious the author is very intelligent and has advanced degrees, but the average person isn’t like him. It was like he wrote this book for other doctors and naturopathic practitioners, not the patients. ... show more

This is an excellent book, giving many options for helping people with glaucoma. Glaucoma is a very threatening disease, and the usual medications begin to be of no help as one's body reacts against them. These natural methods give real hope to those of us who have resigned ourselves to facing blindness.. It is so inspiring that the author himself had glaucoma and has conquered it. ... show more

If vision impaired , get the audio
Format: Paperback
You would imagine that a book on Glaucoma, a serious eye condition, would be in LARGE print. How ridiculous, I can’t read the print, not even with a magnifying glass. I always get audio books, but I thought I would make better use of the print for making notes and seeing pictures. Very disappointed.
