Garcot,
When I was on Euphrasia, Ruta and Arg. thn also I was working late nate but there was no redness, fatigue or eye strain next morning. You think I should continue with these medicines? I guess they were helping me but may be I was expecting instant results.
How many pellets in 1 dose?
Thanks.

Hi !
RhusTox 200c was suggested because, you were of the opinion that it could be the left over effects of an infection that you had 1 year ago.
Calcarea is suggested to clear an inherent miasm that might me present, which makes you susceptible to certain illnesses.
If you believe, Ruta, Arg.N and Euphrasia were helping, you can continue to have them, but reduce the dosages gradually to 1 dose a day to 1 dose/3days to 1dose/ 6 days etc... and stop. You body retains these vibrations for many days ( max 45 to 60 ) and so banging our body with the same vibrations for long duration would be counter-productive.
I always prefer to have 2 pellets as 1 dose. These are vibrational remedies and have very little or material ( original) content. The idea is to make the vibration felt by the all the nerve endings on the tongue.
If you get time, please read a few good books on the principles of Homeopathy ( if you have not done the same).

There are about 280 remedies, that get indicated for dryness in the eyes! So there is nothing like a specific remedy. This is the reason, to suggest the right remedy, we need to know many things that are specific to a given patient. It is very unlike allopathy.
We need to treat the patient in dis-ease and not the dis-ease directly to get the best results. However, there are some snapshot remedies for certain ailments that work well.

Now I know your problem!
You have no problem. I was just kidding. All the remedies that you took were doing the job fine and relieved you well. So let us look at other factors.
Your eyes are getting strained due to excess starring at the terminal which causes stress, that in turn causes poor circulation to the eyes, and in turn drying up. This will go on until you learn to give rest and some excercise to the eye muscles and nerves.
So there is a sustaining stimulus that is bringing back the problem!
Please do the following excercises and let me know how you feel/
1. Regular palming of eyes ( closing the eyes with palms without pressing the eye lids and seeing complete darkness). Keep it palmed for about 3 to 5 minutes.
2. Blinking of eyes consciously, which will luburicate the eyes and prevent inflammation and hence redness ( by improving the circulation).
You can read this book " The Art of seeing" by Aldous Huxley.
A few paragraphs that talked about.
Quote:
"
PASSIVE RELAXATION: PALMING
Relaxation, as we have seen, is of two kinds, passive and dy¬namic. The art of seeing includes techniques for producing either kind—passive relaxation of the visual organs during periods of rest, and dynamic relaxation, through normal and natural func¬tioning in times of activity. Where the organs of vision are con¬cerned, complete passive relaxation can be achieved, but is less beneficial than a mixed state, combining elements of both kinds of relaxation.
The most important of these techniques of (predominantly) passive relaxation is the process which Dr. Bates called 'palming.' In palming the eyes are closed and covered with the palms of the hands. To avoid exerting any pressure upon the eyeballs (which should never be pressed, rubbed, massaged or otherwise handled) the lower part of the palms should rest upon the cheek bones, the fingers upon the forehead. In this way light can be completely excluded from the eyes, even though the eyeballs remain un¬touched.
Palming can be done most satisfactorily when one is seated with the elbows resting upon a table, or upon a large, solidly stuffed cushion laid across the knees.
When the eyes are closed and all light has been excluded by the hands, people with relaxed organs of vision find their sense-field uniformly filled with blackness. This is not the case with those whose visual functioning is abnormal. Instead of blackness, these people may see moving grey clouds, darkness streaked with light, patches of colour, all in an endless variety of permutations and combinations. With the achievement of passive relaxation of the eyes and the mind associated with them, these illusions of movement, light and colour tend to disappear, and are replaced by uniform blackness.......
Blinking has two main functions: to lubricate and cleanse the eyes with tears; and to rest them by periodically excluding light. Dryness of the eyes predisposes them to inflammation, and is often associated with blurring of vision. Hence the imperative need for frequent lubrication—that is to say, for frequent blink¬ing. Moreover, dust (as everyone knows who has ever cleaned a window) will stick to even the smoothest surface, and render the most transparent material opaque. The eyelids, as they blink, wash the exposed surfaces of the eyes with tears, and prevent them from becoming dirty. At the same time, when blinking is frequent, as it should be, light is excluded from the eyes during perhaps five per cent, or more of all the waking hours.
Eyes in a condition of dynamic relaxation blink often and easily. But where there is strain, blinking tends to occur less frequently, and the eyelids work tensely. This would seem to be due to that same misdirection of the attention, which causes the improper immobilization of the sensing-apparatus.
The inhibition of movement, natural and normal in the other parts of the body, is carried over, not only to the eyes, but to their lids as well. A person who stares closes the eyelids only at long intervals. This fact is a matter of such common observa¬tion that, when novelists write about a stare, they generally qualify the word with the epithet, 'unwinking.'.......

Garcot,
Many thanks for doing extensive research on my problem.
Will try the suggested exercises and update you soon. However, this takes care of my eye strain and redness problem. What about floaters? The main problem still pesists. As mentioned earlier, I havent observed onset of new floaters but the exisiting floaters and not improving.
Many thanks in advance.

Floaters are the byproducts. Set right the simple equations first and the byproducts will also go away. Remember, everytime, you are looking at those floaters, you are distracted and stressed. If one continues to practice these natural excercises ( children do these effortlessly at a subconscious level), then the remedial ( the remedies that we take would give an opportunity to our body to heal) effect will prolong and eventually one would become problem free.

Is your right / left nostril blocked most of the time?
Try a single dose of Nux vom 200c at night after dinner and let me know the results. Do not take the other remedies during the evening.
You haven't confirmed whether you took a dose of Calcarea Carb 200 which was suggested?
Please update the next day.

Garcot,
Bang on..forgot to mention that one of my nostril remains blocked most of the time and thts why its extremely difficult for me to practice breathing exercises.
I did try Calcarea Carb 200c but didnt see any drastic improvement in floaters however redness in my left eye these days is almost nil may b also because of the reason that I am avoiding working on my computer these days.
Many thanks.

Garcot,
Thanks for your reply.
Are you trying to say that you have found remedy for my problem and I need to take Nux vom 200c for my eye related issues? or, you are saying that things are improving and will be cured on its own? if yes, thn what about my blocked nostrils?
Please elucidate.

Nostrils get blocked most of the times due to inflammation caused either by external factors like temperature,dust,pollen, dust mites and other pathogens, or internal factors like improper nutrition/digestion, causing disturbed metabolic process. Techniques like alternate nostrils breathing, neti-pot, physical excercise which increases the respiratory rate ( and metabolic rate) and some of the asanas help in resetting this very disturbance.
Nostrils get blocked to protect the more vital organs, and it is an indication that something in our body needs attention.
Nostrils, as one of them get blocked, reduces the circulation to one side of the brain. For example, if right nostril gets blocked, your left ear, sinuses, the left eye and the left brain get lesser prana. Left brain is the logical brain and hence our normal logic gets affected. Similarly, if it is the right side of the brain, our emotions get affected and so would be circulation to the right eye etc....
There are remedies, that has great affinity for afffected emotions and there are remedies that affect our logic and eventually would affect our emotions too.
Our eyes tell us a lot of about the health of our various abdominal organs and especially Liver.
Nux Vomica is one of the remedies, that has symptoms of alternate nostrils getting blocked or running, affected digestion, affected respiratory tract, high acidity, constipation etc.... Please read the Materia Medica available on this site for complete detail.
Remedies will only help us get cured, provided the sustaining factors for the root cause are eliminated. We are a mechanical system and every part of our body requires regular movement to keep itself healthy. A proper breathing ensures this required movement.
For example Sulphur in homeopathic potency will cure an ailment, provided we don't get to inhale sulphur vapors on a daily basis, which would antidote the remedy and bring back the problem.
If we ensure proper breathing at all times / most of times, or atleast understand how to bring back the affected breathing, we can remain healthy and reduce the frequency of popping medicines/remedies.
The choice entirely lies with US.
Best wishes

Garcot,
Tried a dose of Nux vom 200c yesterday and day before after dinner as suggested. Observation: nostrils all open and breathing is easy but the floaters are large and more than the usual.
Kindly suggest whether I should continue with the medicine.
Thanks.

This is a good sign. Nostrils opening and breathing easy. Because of the better breathing, the circulation to the affected eye is improved and it is helping the floaters to loosen, become thinner and consequently would help in removing them.
Having said that, now that your nostrils are open, you can try the breathing excercises regularly and improve the condition further. Nux also helps in reducing the stress, where the stress is caused by excess work, where dryness becomes the cause.
You can take couple of doses in a week for 2 weeks ( totally 4 doses ) and look for the improvement, continuing to practice pranayama.
what are the color of floaters ?

OK sure will continue with the medicine for 2 weeks and yes I feel it would be much easier to practice breathing exercises now.
Floaters are like specks and strands, fluid like consistecy..dark brown and not completely black..they are not in the field of vision but in the corners of the eyes and surprisingly its the corner of my eyes that are red. Do you see any connection?
Thanks.

Garcot,
Just an observation, nostrils are open through out the day but get blocked by end of the day. I observed that my left nostril was blocked yesterday night. The condition is better through out the day. Earlier also I dont think the poblem was there during the day time it was actually late in the evening when the problem used to get worst.
Thanks.

It is also a possible indication that you have excess acidiity. Please check up with a physician, if it bothers you. But according to me it is very normal and many have brown streaks etc...

Garcot,
Visited the opthamalogist yesterday for a routine checkup.
He felt that inspite of a little redness because of dry eyes, my eyes are normal. He also didnt find any follicles so that means I dnt have follicular conjuctivitis anymore.
I asked him about floaters and he said its quite natural and nothing to worry about.
I am using Euphrasia drops regularly and doing eye exercises too but dont find any improvement in floaters or eye dryness. you suggest any remedy?
Thanks.

You can read someone's experience with eye-floaters here:
http://www.ctds.info/yoga-floaters.html66
Secondly, apart from the dryness in the eyes, if you have dry scalp and dandruff ( mostly it would be true), it is an indication that, you may need more of n-3 fatty acids or omega 3 fatty acids ( a family of unsaturated fatty acids) and something like fish-oil or flax-seed oil would help. Lycopodium is a good remedy for scalp dryness, dandruff and receding hair line and also helps in eye dryness.
Please confirm whether you pass normal stools and pass it everyday without any great effort. This may give us some more clues hopefully.
Best wishes
