And I'd like to welcome you to another EyeClarity podcast. So today, I'm going to invite you into my office, I'm going to be giving somebody a session who's been diagnosed with dry eye. Anybody out there ever suffered dry? Well, I can tell you if you're on your screen for any length of time, that you may be drying your eyes out, whether it's the blue light, whether it's the confined focusing that you're doing. And the question I get a lot, what can be done. So I hope you enjoy the podcast, I'll be going in and out and making some comments. But here we go. Your deal dealing with dry eye syndrome. And I'm going to give you the answer on how to reduce the dry eye not only the symptoms, but how to make it go away completely. So it's gonna take a little, you know, a little practice on your part, but I think you can get there. So let me start with this. The eyelids have the glands that produce the tears that cover the cornea the clear window of the eye. And so it starts with the health of the eyelids. And even if you don't think there's any inflammation in the eyelids, at some level, the eyelids are not either producing enough tears or the tears they're producing evaporate, they go away too quickly. So in the evening, I'd like you to see if you can get yourself some organic castor oil, organic castor oil, and you take a dropper to have the castor oil just a little bit on your fingers. You don't need a lot of it. And I want you to put the castor oil over your eyelids like this. So in other words, you're just going to put the castor oil over the eyelids before you go to bed. And what the castor oil does is it's going to improve the skin health. In the eyelids, it's also going to help reduce any inflammation in the eyelids and it's going to help to moisturize your eyes. In other words, they're going to feel moist when you wake up in the morning. Now if you wake up and your eyes are dry, you could also do a drop on the castor oil and massage it again if you want to. And at the same time, do the 5% MSM Okay, so you can do them in combination during the day, for this time period, you have to use the eyedrops more regularly. So my suggestion would be you're going to be doing the 5% MSM. I'd like you to do those one drop in each eye. And you can do it up to six times a day. 03:51 Now there are two ways that you can apply the eyedrops. One way is called the eye massage. And the second way is called the eye bath. So when the eye massage, you wash your hands. You put a couple of drops in the corners of the eyes with the eyes closed. So you can lean your head back, your eyes are closed. You take your fingers, they're clean, and you spread the drops along the eyelashes and the eyelids. So you're spreading the the drops along the eyelids.
