Cataracts: Symptoms & Cataract Eye Surgery Avoidance

Reduce Cataract Issues

Cataract Surgery Has Risks

Excerpts from the audio that you will hear:

"...It’s far easier to prevent a cataract than to reverse a cataract. I think the success rate in preventing the cataract could be very close to 100%... In reversal, in my experience, improvement in vision is generally about 50%, meaning that if you start nutritional therapy with a 20/100 cataract than you’re likely to improve to around 20/50... Obviously, if you start with a 20/30 cataract you’re likely to improve to 20/20... "

"...Now, what deficiencies have been proven in the medical literature to result in cataract formation?...Persons who take vitamin E and vitamin C have approximately 86% reduced risk in developing a cataract. Vitamin E alone reduced their risk of developing a cataract by 56%... And a person taking vitamin E and vitamin C, the reduction was 86%. Vitamin E and vitamin C are not the whole picture... "

"...Obviously one option we have is for patients to continue living with the cataract and I think that until a patient comes to that point in his life that he is willing to take the risk that he is going to lose his eye he shouldn’t risk cataract eye surgery... "

"...Only about 94% of cataract operations result in a complete success. And about 5% end up with results that are as bad or slightly worse than the patient was when they had the surgery...And unless you prepare that patient in advance for the possibility that he might lose an eye in this procedure. You can be on the positive side and say 94% chance that things are going to go great. So you wait until the visual acuity has deteriorated to the point that the patient is willing to accept the risks along with the benefits. Even though cataract surgery is probably the most successful surgical procedure performed in the world today it still does have risks... "

"...There have been several studies that zinc deficiency causes cataracts... Before a cataract forms in the eye the lens of the eye becomes completely devoid of vitamin C...The eye, incidentally, has the highest concentration of vitamin C in the body and it’s there for a purpose...Niacin and riboflavin deficiency have been reported as causes of cataracts... "

"...We know from studies that at least 50%, probably 70%, of the American population is zinc deficient and is more likely to be zinc deficient in the elderly population than in the young...It is almost universal in the United States, except in a few parts of the country where the soil is very rich in selenium, such as in Nebraska..."

"...Some of the toxic causes of cataract include sugar...Toxic metal, we’re talking about lead, mercury, cadmium, are all causes of cataracts. In my study of 460 consecutive patients in which we analyzed them for trace elements including toxic metals 15.7% had significant levels of toxic metals in their system. 47% had measurable levels of toxic metals in their system. Your chances are at least one in six that you have a significant level of toxic metals within your body... "
