Anyone have ideas how > to nip it in the bud before it gets full-blown awful? Elaine, I just looked it up and there are three remedies listed: Cilantro leaf pulp. Blend a handful of cilantro leaves with 1/4 - 2/3 cup water; strain out juice and apply pulp to closed eyelids. Drink the liquid. Coriander eyewash. Steep 1 teaspoon coriander seeds in 1 cup boiling water at least 15 mins. Strain thoroughly and cool before using on closed eyes. Don't worry if it gets in eyes. Goat milk compress. Dip a cotton ball in goat's milk and put over eye. B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 I had an on-and-off battle with conjunctivitis for a while after I got my root canals. I found that emphasizing coconut fat and chicken stock helped a lot, but I was battling a chronic problem from the inside so it might be a different approach. Any kind of hot compress helps, because often times the infectious agent is heat-sensitive enough that a wash cloth with hot water will kill it. Eyebright also helps. You could drink it as tea, but also dip a wash cloth in eyebright tea when it is hot and use it as a compress on your eyes. Some people who buy Russ Newman's products follow his advice to use colloidal silver and MSM mixture for eye drops, although I wouldn't go out of your way to buy some if you don't have any on hand.

Elaine Last year one of my kids brought it home from preschool and we all ended up with it. I treated it with goldenseal tea, diluted, as an eyewash. I had a friend who recommended this, or chamomile as an effective treatment. The irrated feeling was gone in about 36 hours, the appearance of redness in about 48 hours, but I treated it for a total of 5-7 days.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 I use a true hydrosol of rose to fight all eye infections. I just use it as an eyewash and it works like a charm. A hydrosol is a byproduct of essential oil production; often, people mistakenly call water with essential oil added a " hydrosol. " A good place to buy hydrosols on the web is www.av-at.com.
