Product Description
Contains: Preservative-Free Saline Solution; certified organic Himalayan Sea Buckthorn oil, Methylsulfonyl methane (MSM) (5%).
MSM is an organic sulfur which increases collagenf synthesis. Collagen breakdown contributes to various eye conditions resulting from the inability of the eye to secrete toxins and fluids. I first compounded this eye-drop for a client with a severe case of dry eye syndrome due to a dysfunction of the Meibomian glands of the eyelids. It has since been used by those with cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and for those who simply interested in preserving eye health.*
SEA BUCKTHORN IS A RICH SOURCE OF ANTIOXIDANTS AND FATTY ACIDS, INCLUDING OMEGA-7, PROVEN EFFECTIVE AGAINST DRY EYE. SOME PEOPLE HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE GLANDS IN THE EYELIDS THAT SECRET FATTY ACIDS, SO ADDING THEM TOPICALLY MAKES A LOT OF SENSE. I DON'T KNOW OF ANYONE ELSE MAKING AN EYE DROP CONTAINING SEA BUCKTHORN OIL.
WHY THE ADDITION OF MAGNESIUM? I developed this version of the eye drop for a person with a genetic condition that causes calcification of the retinae. Because magnesium dissolves calcifications, I thought it would be a good addition. I researched and found this form of magnesium (chloride hexahydrate) has been used in saline solutions to help with the ferning. I am using them myself now. I do notice a hardly perceptible bit of a sting when I first drop them in, and this quickly dissipates.
Magnesium is an essential nutrient for the healthy function of many different parts of our body including the heart, bones, muscles and nerves. A low diet of magnesium can cause significant health problems, so it is important to include magnesium-rich foods in your diet in order to live a healthy lifestyle. Magnesium is especially important in eye health and has been shown to improve the visual field and retinal circulation in patients with glaucoma. Studies with both humans and animals show that a supplement of magnesium greatly improves eye health and though there have been studies showing these positive effects, further research should be conducted to open up even more therapeutic treatments for eye health through the use of magnesium.
You can see in the diagram below that magnesium downregulates inflammation and upregulates antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity within the eye. In addition to making sure you are getting adequate magnesium internally, what better way to directly bath the eye structures than with the direct application of magnesium to the eye itself?

"Just wanted to say that the MSM eye solution is fantastic. I had a small pimple on my right lower eyelid, and within a couple of days of using the MSM it was gone! I notice that my eyes definitely feel much less dry, as well... so, I'm hooked!"

"Becky, I have a great story for you. My husband and I have been in St. Martin since late December. We are friends with a couple from England. The man has diabetes, and his mum has glaucoma and diabetes. I lent him the MSM Eye Drops of Wondrous Roots because the poor man couldn't keep his eyes open. He has used them for the past two weeks, and his eyes are open and have improved greatly! He looked MSM up online and found out that it helps people with diabetes and glaucoma. I will tell him to order the drops from you when he runs out. You do so much good for people, Becky. Happy New Year, dear friend."
