 RS> I went to the opthalmologist  on Monday, and during the
 RS> course of a regular eye examination, they discovered that
 RS> the pressure in my right eye is about 30.  From what I was
 RS> said, this can lead to nerve damage and eventually glaucoma
 RS> and all the joys that portends.  So I've got another
 RS> appointment in a couple of months to get it looked at again,
 RS> as well as to take photos of the nerves in my eyes, as they
 RS> appear to be a bit cupped right now.
     Richard,  do you take vitamin/minerals dietary supplements?
     I once read that the herb yarrow might help with glaucoma.
     Other nutrients such as lutein and zeaxanthin might help.
     Also the herb bilberry may be good.  Vitamin Shoppe is a good
     mail order place  -->  1-800-223-1216 .
     You may wish to cut out eating sweets.
     You may also wish to visit a local natrapathic doctor in your
     area.
