As we grow older, the development of cataracts in the eyes is common. This happens when the lens of the eye thickens and deteriorates. We used to think that this condition was unavoidable and irreversible. Now we know that diet has a lot to do with it.
As with all degenerative conditions, cataracts are caused by oxidative (free radical) damage. Cataracts develop when the lens’ protein structure degrades through a process known as glycation. It is similar to the changes that occur when an egg white is heated slowly. The thickening and opacity start on the outer edges and works its way to the center.
Eating foods with high antioxidant levels (e.g. dark green, orange, and red veggies) is an excellent way to safeguard your overall health and prevent and remedy cataracts and other problems with your eyes. It has been found that individuals with lowered antioxidant levels tend to develop cataracts more often.
Is It Possible to Cure Cataracts Without Resorting To Surgery?
At this point in time, the popular notion among medical professionals is that the only cure for cataracts is surgery. This may be true for very advanced cases, but if you catch it in time, there are quite a few natural solutions that may help you effectively reverse or dissolve cataracts.
Glutathione is one of the most important antioxidants, and keeping it at high levels can greatly reduce chances of developing cataracts. Increasing glutathione levels can slow the progress of cataracts and may enable you to avoid surgery. Research indicates that it may also be effective in combating problems such as:
- Age-related macular degeneration
- Near-sightedness
- Far-sightedness
- Conjunctivitis
- Dry eyes
The realization that many problems with the eyes are caused by glycation (aka oxidation) makes it easy to see that these problems can be effectively addressed by adding foods to the diet that are rich in antioxidants. Naturopaths, Ayurvedic healers and others who specialize in taking a holistic approach to wellness have known this for centuries.
Castor Oil Can Dissolve Your Cataracts Naturally
The old-fashioned remedy, castor oil, is filled with antioxidants and provides a number of helpful nutrients for eyes. With the right type of castor oil, you can dissolve and/or reverse the development of cataracts and restore your vision naturally.
It is very important that you select the right kind of castor oil for this purpose. The oil you choose must possess these qualities:
- 100% Pure & Organic
- Free of Hexane
- Cold-Pressed
The best and most natural castor oil is packaged in dark blue, brown or green glass bottles with a pipette (dropper) included.
How Do You Use Castor Oil For Cataracts?
It is very easy to boost your eye health with castor oil by instilling one drop into each eye at least once a day. It’s best to do this at bedtime because your eyesight will be a bit blurry afterward. Also, instilling the drops and closing your eyes will give the oil more opportunity to work.
When you awaken, you may find a crusty residue around your eyes. This is dissolved calcium and other impurities that have been blocking your vision. Don’t be alarmed. Just wash your face and go about your business.

How Quickly Does It Work?
This solution literally begins to work overnight. You should definitely see some improvement within three nights. If not, you should stop the remedy. Even though castor oil will not hurt your eyes, if it does not improve your condition somewhat within three days, it is clearly not the right solution to your problem.
If you do experience positive results, you can continue the treatment for as long as three months. For some people, eyesight is completely restored in under a month.
We hope this information is helpful to you and that you will add lots of fresh fruits and veggies to your diet and castor oil to your daily eye health routine. Give it a try, and let us know what happens!
can i swallow castor oil instead of putting it in my eyes. i don’t want to deal with bluryness and i have had a stye in my eye in the past, as well.
Castor oil for cataracts works very well. My dogs eyes were blue hazed and in 3-4 weeks twice a day and they are clear as a bell now. Thank you Jesus. She was very scared until the treatment.
I have started the castor oil treatment for my cataracts; seeing improvement in the first few days. My question is; do I need to keep wearing my glasses that are made to see with the cataracts or could I just purchase some reading glasses? It seems as the cataracts are dissolving the prescription glasses would not be correct for my eyes. I do need help for reading or my computer time with farsightedness; otherwise I can see well enough without any glasses for my housework. Thank you so much for this information.
Why do you recommend Heritage Products castor oil when it is not organic, is not in a colored bottle, and doesn’t have an eye dropper?
It IS organic, IS in a colored glass bottle but it doesn’t have an eye dropper.

I have used this treatment and have regained most of my vision back normal in my right eye before using this i was at the point of getting surgery but glad i tried this first because it has helped so much now that does not mean that it is a fix for everyone but well worth the try and a heck of a lot less expensive than an eye surgery now as far as i was concerned much better than having surgery and something go wrong as this treatment will do no harm that i am aware of and if it does nothing at the most your out is about $10
I used Ayurvedic Free hexane, chemicals, certified organic, cold pressed castor oil every night before bedtime; in the morning I noticed that my eyes were moist but the iris are deformed, red eyes once I washed them. Why?
