There isn’t a quick fix when it comes to treating the root of the problem in eye care. It takes time to fix something that’s been developing for months or years. I treat the causative factors, not the symptoms, so my practices take work and patience, but it’s worth it. Enjoy the show. If you want more, sign up for my newsletter at: www.drsamberne.com.

Hello, everyone. It’s Dr. Sam, I’d like to welcome you to my EyeClarity podcast. This is a show that offers cutting-edge information on how to improve your vision and overall wellness through holistic methods. I so appreciate you spending part of your day with me. If you have questions, you can send them to hello@drsamberene.com. Now to the latest EyeClarity episode.
Good morning, everyone. It’s Dr. Sam, I’d like to welcome you to another EyeClarity podcast. I am hiking in the Santa Fe National Forest. We’re at about 9500 feet. And I want to take a question from a listener who is asking a question that I get asked a lot. And so there’s a micro answer. And there’s a macro answer. So the question is, can I use MSM eyedrops to treat my dry eye? And the answer to that is no. So the macro part of this is, I get so many questions from people, I have condition A, can I take pill B, to fix condition. And every time I send them a video blog that’s on average, five to 10 minutes long. And I asked them to watch that video. Because it’s going to list several causes, which you need to explore the causes of your condition. So that you are treating the causative factors and not the symptom.
So, for example, when we talk about dry eye, and somebody says to me, well, will the MS M drops? Fix my dry eye? Absolutely not. And the reason is, is because they’re probably systemic, metabolic, energetic, and functional reasons why your eyes are drying out. And to think that one eye drop, or one vitamin, is the answer. You’re probably in the wrong community. You know, the other day, somebody kept asking me about dry eye. And she was asking the questions in a symptomatic way. So I finally wrote her and said, You know what, I think, I think based on your attitude, and your philosophy, you should start doing Restasis eye drops, which is an immune suppressant drop. And you should get the lip of flow, where they heat the eyelids, procedure. And both of these things will give you temporary relief.
But my protocols take a long time. And you have to be willing to stay the course. I am neither a quick fix, or a cookbook. And I have to admit, the medical care has trained us to look for the magic bullet. And hey, if you’re in a lot of pain, if you’ve got a lot of inflammation, if you’re looking for immediate relief, then I highly recommend that you use the tools and the information that mainstream eyecare puts out. After all, they’ve been at it a long time. And they’re very, very good at helping people relieve symptoms. Now, are there side effects from those? Absolutely. Is it going to treat the complete cause? No. Is it the final answer? Probably not. But this idea that well if I take a vitamin E supplement or MSM eyedrops that my problems are over. And, you know, there’s a lot to be said about lifestyle. Stress Reduction. Sleep.

Do you love your work? How healthy are your relationships? What’s your diet like? What’s your inflammatory levels? Like? Have you ever explored your traumas or Your toxicities so if we go back to I nutrients, the landmark studies that NIH did in 2001, and 2006, called the air it’s in the air, it’s to study definitively have definitively have said that certain nutrients like vitamin A, beta carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin, zinc, vitamin C, these are all beneficial for eye circulation and eye health. But the thing I want to leave you with is that when you go to your eye doctor, and he or she finds something, it’s probably been there for a while. And it took a while for your eyes to change.
So it’s going to take a while for your eyes, to regenerate, to rejuvenate. You know, in a lot of the neuroplasticity, neuroplasticity research, more and more. Protocols are coming out where you can regenerate the retina, the optic nerve, the cornea. So it’s out there. But what I want you to take away is that you’ve got to look at the big picture, the macro, and then you can start executing some of these micro step strategies. But you’re probably going to be needing to do a layer and a level of many of these things to get lasting changes. So I hope that’s helpful. It’s not easy medicine to swallow because we live in a fast society. We want the quick fix. We want it yesterday. And sometimes Patience pays off. So that’s my show for today. I want to thank you so much for tuning in. Take care.
