What is cataract?
Cataract is an opacity of the lens in the pupil, which interferes with good vision. In many cases the spasm of external eye muscles is the cause of cataract and such cases are benefited by relaxation treatment.
I have not seen with the right eye for one year. Doctors diagnose 'Cataract' and advise an operation. Can your treatment help me?
Operation is the right treatment when the cataract is matured.
Is cataract curable in the early stage?
Cataract which is due to strain is curable and the vision is always improved by long palming and by concentration on candle flame.
My both eyes have been operated upon for cataract and I use glasses but for sometime the vision has been gradually deteriorating.
Sun treatment and palming and reading small print with glasses will be very helpful to stop deterioration.
What is the best preventive for cataracts?
Apply Resolvent 200.
Concentrate on a candle flame. Read small print.

Is a great amount of floating specks an indication of cataract? When I am tired, these look like a swarm of bees crossing my eye-balls.
No, your particular strain produces floating specks. A different strain produces cataract. By relaxation both can be benefited.

Yes, relaxation is always a benefit, not only to the eyes, but to all the nerves of the body.
