    2025/04/07
    Hi Friends, I want to let you know that I will be speaking along with 80 other speakers at The Real Truth About Health Free 17-Day Live Online Conference April 5 - April 21, 2024. I will be speaking at the following times and taking live questions. I look forward to speaking with you. Individual Lecture (live online presentation) - Sam Berne O.D. - The Eyes Never Lie: What Your Vision Reveals About Your Health Wednesday, Apr 09, 2025, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM EDT Panel 63 - Natural Vision: Unveiling Holistic Strategies for Lifelong Eye Health - Saturday, Apr 12, 2025, 8:15 PM - 9:30 PM EDT Sam Berne O.D. - Vital Vision: Clear Vision Naturally Please sign up to watch these free lectures. therealtruthabouthealth.com Strategies For Chronic Eye Symptoms: Demodex Step 1: Rule Out and Reassess Ask: - **Unilateral or bilateral?** (One eye vs. both) - **Morning vs. all-day redness?** - **Discharge? Itching? Burning?** - **Contact lens wearer?** - **Recent meds (antihistamines, SSRIs, sleep aids)?** - **Screen use, blue light exposure, or recent stress spikes?** --- Step 2: Consider Root Causes 1. Meibomian Gland Dysfunction / Evaporative Dry Eye - Redness + inflammation + lack of response to silver = possibly oil glands clogged. - Use: - Warm compresses (5–10 min, twice daily) - Lid massage with hypochlorous acid spray (e.g., Avenova or Heyedrate) - Omega-3 supplementation (2–3g/day of EPA/DHA from Nordic Naturals or similar) 2. Demodex Mite Overgrowth (esp. if itching or worse in the morning) - Classic in chronic blepharitis and redness. - Use: - Tea tree oil wipes (like Cliradex 1–2x/day) - Castor oil on lids at night (anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial) 🌬️ 3. Allergy or Environmental Irritant - Wind, smoke, mold, and pollen can all cause long-term inflammation. - Try: - Homeopathic eye drops** (Similasan Allergy Relief) - **Cold compresses during flare-ups* - Consider nettle leaf or quercetin supplements for systemic histamine balance. 4. Autoimmune or Inflammatory Response - Consider the gut-immune-eye connection if this is part of broader inflammatory issues. - Explore: - Low-histamine diet trial for 7–10 days - Support with **turmeric/curcumin or Boswellia - If gluten-sensitive, remove gluten as it can trigger ocular inflammation. 5. Topical Support If redness is not due to infection but inflammation: - Use **preservative-free lubricating drops like *Refresh Mega-3or *Systane Complete 4x/day - Avoid Visine or "get-the-red-out" drops—they rebound. --- Functional Vision Add-ons (Your Toolbox) - Red-light therapy near-infrared (650–850 nm), 2–3 min per eye daily. - Essential oil lymph drainage protocol (frankincense, helichrysum, copaiba around eyes—not in). - Vagus nerve reset with somatic vision exercises to drop inflammation systemically. --- Referral Warning Signs (If Any Present) - Severe light sensitivity - Reduced vision - Eye pain - Clouding or corneal haze Chronic Inflammatory Blepharoconjunctivitis, likely from: 1. Meibomian gland dysfunction + Demodex overgrowth 2. Environmental irritation or low-grade allergy 3. Possibly gut-liver overload (systemic inflammation contributing) --- ## 🌿 Refined 7-Day Protocol to Calm, Clear, and Reset Step 1: Cleanse the Lids + Calm the Microbiome - Morning & Night: - Wipe lids with a hypochlorous acid spray* (Avenova, Heyedrate, or Biotech). - Follow with Cliradex wipes (or dilute tea tree oil in jojoba 5:1 if cost is a factor) to target Demodex. - After 3 mins, apply castor oil or organic manuka honey salve on lids (not in eyes). Step 2: Reduce Local Inflammation - Apply a cold compress for 5–7 minutes mid-day (or chilled chamomile tea bags). - Use preservative-free lubricating drops 3–4x/day: *Refresh Mega-3* or Systane Complete* - Optional: Apply diluted frankincense or copaiba around eyes (temples, cheekbone, brow bone). Step 3: Internal Anti-inflammatory + Eye-Lipid Support...

    Can Your Eyes Tell Your Health Story? The Power of Iridology
    2025/03/29
    Join our membership for exclusive content: https://drsambernesmembership.com/join_us Come to our practitioner's retreat July 2025 in Santa Fe, NM https://www.drsamberne.com/unlock-your-bodys-natural-healing-with-somatic-movement/ Show Notes Keywords: Iridology, eye health, iris analysis, health insights, holistic health, dietary recommendations, preventive health, Sam Berne Summary: In this conversation, Sam Berne discusses the practice of iridology, explaining how the iris serves as a map to the body's health. He elaborates on the significance of eye color and pigments in diagnosing potential health issues, emphasizing the importance of dietary and lifestyle changes for prevention and overall well-being. Berne highlights the educational aspect of iridology, advocating for a proactive approach to health rather than merely treating symptoms. Takeaways • Iridology analyzes the iris to reflect organ health. • Eye color can indicate specific health tendencies. • Blue eyes may suggest lymphatic and respiratory issues. • Mixed eye colors often relate to liver and digestive health. • Brown eyes can indicate blood toxicity and sluggish elimination. • Iridology helps identify genetic health patterns. • The shape of the pupil can reveal spinal health. • Pigments in the iris indicate metabolic inefficiencies. • Dietary changes can support eye and overall health. • Iridology is a preventative tool for health education. Sound Bites • "The iris is a map to the body." • "Iridology can be used as a tool." • "Brown eyes struggle with blood toxicity." • "Iridology can show inflammation signs." Chapters 00:00Understanding Iridology: The Eye as a Health Map 13:06The Colors of the Iris: Insights into Health 19:51Pigments in the Iris: Indicators of Metabolic Health Sam Berne (00:00.414) One of the methods that I use to analyze and help people is by doing a investigation into the colored part of the eye called the iris and the iris is a map to the body and iridology is the study of the color the pigmentation and the structure of the iris and we also look at the pupil which is inside the iris and through lots of clinical research over the years. There have been certain say patterns that show up based on the color of your eyes. So just generally speaking, if you're blue-eyed like I am, there's a tendency toward lymphatic weakness, sinus congestion. lung congestion and arthritic symptoms, arthritic symptoms. If you're dark brown, that's a person that tends to be more towards having blood issues and glandular disturbances. And then the third type is the kind of the mixed where that's a person that's inherited both the brown and the blue eyes. And they tend to suffer liver and digestive issues. So when we look at the colored part of the eye and we're looking at the color the pigmentation and the structure. This is going to reflect several things our organ health our glandular health. It's also going to show us genetic tendencies that perhaps our parents or grandparents were dealing with, you know, where could be things like blood sugar issues or heart issues thyroid issues just as some examples, but iridology can be used as a tool. It's the way I use it to measure different strengths and deficiencies that are located within the body and especially when you use it with kids like I do at kid power where I'm working with a lot of special needs kids. I mean just the other day I was Sam Berne (02:28.673) doing some, you know, vision analysis of several kids and I did a little iridology on them and parents couldn't believe how spot-on I was about what their nurture points were in terms of their digestive health, their glandular health, toxicities that they might have to deal with. So when we look at the iris, we're looking at all these different pigments and patterns and colors that can be proactive and preventative, you know, like for example, sometimes I'll pick up say a cardiac issue in the iris.

So this is a lecture that I gave recently to my students on the aspects of nutrition and high brain health and this is working with kids between the ages of 3 and 16. So I hope you enjoy the presentation. Thanks for tuning in. Hey everyone, welcome to the presentation today. So it's It's great to be here. I enjoyed your Q &A at the beginning. So I want to jump in and talk about the nourishing vision and this has to do with what are the best foods in nutritional practices to enhance functional vision therapy in children. So I'll start off by telling a story. I was practicing in the East Coast at the time and I was giving a presentation down in Florida and it was a very well received professional lecture on vision therapy, nutrition, naturopathic medicine. And at the end of the lecture, there was this man that was sitting in the front row. and everybody had left and he said I want to introduce myself. My name is Dr. Sutton. I'm a professor at Berry College here in Fort Lauderdale. I'm also a developmental optometrist. I've been in practice over 45 years and I really enjoyed your lecture, but there were some holes in it and I was kind of taken aback by it because You know, I was a hot shot. had already published a couple of books. I was very well known. I was lecturing all over the place. And here was this gentleman saying, you know, dude, you got some holes in your thinking. So it caught my attention and we went out to dinner and he told me a little bit about his background and all the things he had done working with special needs kids. And so we struck up a friendship and I actually became a student of his. And over a course of many years, he and I did a lot of collaborations together. And he was in practice in Miami Beach, Florida. And he was a professor at Berry College where he taught special ed teachers and teachers who worked with learning disabilities.
