| Eyebright, as its name indicates, is one of the primary herbal sources of eye care. It is especially useful for eyestrain, eye inflammations, and other eye ailments. In addition, Eyebright can greatly relieve other symptoms that often accompany runny, sore, itchy eyes due to colds or allergies. Used internally, it is a powerful anti-catarrhal, and thus may be used in nasal catarrh, sinusitis and other congestive states, such as hay fever, acute coryza, irritable sneezing and lachrymation. Internally, it also helps maintain good vision and eye health by supporting the liver among other organs in such a way as to cleanse the blood supply to the eyes. |
