Here is an excerpt from a class I help earlier this year. We covered everything from how to negotiate an eyeglass or contact lens prescription and Color Therapy to the visual-vestibular connections. I led the class in The Berne Method®, helping to improve your vision and health. This unique blend of holistic vision practices was experiential, and we had some great discussions. Enjoy the show, and keep an eye out for more from this series. 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 [email protected]. Now to the latest EyeClarity episode.

First of all, with polarized lenses for sunglasses, I don't recommend those because it's actually more strain in getting both eyes to work together. Because in a polarized lens, the right eye sees one lens in the left eye sees slightly differently in the left lens, so requires your two eyes to work together, that sometimes creates some stress. Instead, I would just get a dark neutral Brett brown or neutral gray tint. Those are the two best tints and just get a dark that would be better for you than trying to get the polarization on it. Alright, I want to take a question from Linda who's asking about epi retinal membrane disorder, which is better known as macular pucker. And this is affecting has been affecting her. She's thinks due to a head injury five years ago. And she's still experiencing wavy vision and our eye migraines.

So I don't know have any more history than that, Linda. But if you are my patient, I would be having you get regular cranial sacral work, acupuncture, with the migraines, I would really take a look at your trace mineral levels, especially magnesium, I would start with that. But I would also you know, do some kind of either a blood panel or urine or hair mineral analysis and just find out the state of your biochemistry, your trace minerals, your your dietary absorption, because there's an underlying inflammatory situation going on there. And to be able to pinpoint that gut level and remedy that I think would be really helpful. It could be more probiotics, it could be doing some kind of a fasting situation, it could be doing some kind of a liver cleanse. But with the migraines it's a combination of the trauma from the head trauma, and also are your two eyes working together or not. And if they're not working together, this can also trigger some migraines. In terms of the wave Enos, I think the where I would start with that is that in the the vitreous of the eye, which is the gel sac that sits in front of the retina, part of the attachment of the vitreous is to the macula. And the vitreous is probably pulling on the macula at some level. And so my advice would be to start some MSM eyedrops to

add, maybe make sure you're getting all those great antioxidants that I talked about today. And also, my physical vision therapy exercises for macular health would actually be for the macular degeneration. And those exercises really help stimulate the peripheral vision. And so it takes the pressure off the macula, having to do all the work. So whether you have macular pucker, macular hole, or macular degeneration,
