When
did it start
In the ancient Egyptian & Babylonian scripts, there are lots of correlation
between parts of the eyes & parts of the body. About 1000 BC
Throughout the years many people wrote about Iridology & signs in the eyes:
1670 - Phillipus Meyens, Dresden, wrote a book "Chiromatic Medica" where he
mentions diagnosis through the Iris
1826 - 1911 - Dr Ignatz von Peczley, Hungary was one of the people to perform a
lot of research in Iridology. An owl was trapped in his garden, while
trying to free the owl, he broke its leg accidentally, he tried his best to
nurse the owl, he realised that a line appeared in the owls big eyes, after few
weeks the line changed in colour. That phenomenon was kept in his mind, he was
11 years old then. When he grew up and did a lot of research in Iridology, then
studied allopathic medicine & came with an Iridology chart very much similar to
the modern charts.
Many scientists were inspired by Peczly's research & chart & many have done lots
of research. Dr Bernard Jensen (USA) wrote many books about Iridology, which are
considered the best references to Iridology. Dr Jensen introduced photography to
Iridology, where the best pictures of the irises were taken, thus changes in the
iris could be printed & monitored.
Adam Jackson (UK) introduced video Iridology, the eyes were viewed on TV screen.
What is important is to view the details of the iris clearly.
Dr N Succar uses digital computer technology to take pictures of the irises to a
computer screen for thorough analysis.
How does it work
In the embryonic stage of development, the first cells to form are the neurons
,( the basic cell of the brain & all the nervous system ), the eye which is
starts as part of the brain, then get detached from the brain & is connected to
the brain by the optic nerve, ( bundle of millions of neurons ), blood vessels &
other tissues.
Fig.1
Anything that happens in the body will be reflected in the iris. The Iris is
made of muscles, nerve endings & other tissues, the nerve fibres in the iris as
well as other tissues respond to changes in the body tissues by manifesting a
reflex physiology that corresponds to the specific tissue changes & locations.
This will manifest it self in changes in colour in certain parts of the iris.
The Weave of the muscular structure of the iris, can get retracted or atrophied
( loss of thickness due to lack of blood & nerve supply) in certain areas, which
will correspond or reflect the condition of certain organs in the body.
As illustrated in the diagram Fig. 2.
Fig 2.
Depending on the depth, colour, shape & location of these lacunas, the
appropriate diagnostic conclusion is made.
What is the Iridology chart
The chart to Iridology is the map of the iris topography, which guide us very
accurately over its surface, thus enabling us to analyse the iris & relate to
the whole body at once. Many charts were suggested by many scientists. The Chart
developed by Dr. Bernard Jensen is the fruit of 50 years of research & intense
study. He has brought forward & incorporated those aspects & details proven to
be accurate by verification o in clinical practice.
Each organ is reflected in a specific area of the iris, so by analysing the
signs in the eyes, we can conclude about the condition & the function of that
organ or tissue.
The Basic Iris signs
Colour: Blue, Brown, Mixed
Structure: Silk, Linen, Hessian, Net
Constitutions: (10)
Pure Lymphatic
Lymphatic Neurogenic
Lymphatic hydrogenoid
L. Abdominal. Reservoir
Lipemic Diathesis
L. Uric Acid Diathesis
L.Connective Tissue Weakness
Biliary
Hematogenic
Hematogenic anxiety-Tetanic
Other: Lacunas, psoric spots, raised fibres, & other signs
Colour:
The Blue Iris
Blue/Grey, In Nordic, European & Anglo-Saxon races. More prone to acid
conditions: Rheumatic, asthmatic & ulcerative ailments. They have thinner blood
& tendency to cold extremities, lymphatic congestion & weak kidneys.
The brown Iris
In Asian, African, red & Semitic races. Shows thicker blood. Prone to digestive
disorders including biliousness, gastric atony, constipation auto-toxicity
dysfunction of the nervous system.
The Mixed Iris
Green/hazel sometimes with brown colouring extending outwards. To the naked eye
might look brown (real brown is sandy in texture). The mixed Iris has a genetic
blue base making the person prone to acid & toxic conditions. The person needs
to take special care of his body-particularly digestive & nerve. system. Pt.
should maintain health by regular cleansing & good living habits.
Structure:
Silk
Tightly woven fibres, is the strongest physical type with efficient metabolism ,
hyper-adrenal function, overactive nervous system cannot relax, always on the
GO, Strong will power & straight-line thinking, can cope with high physical,
mental intellectual workloads but get worried easily & over anxious about
trivial things. They live & ignore minor pains, symptoms until health crises
occur & degeneration settles in. Any illness tends to be brought by emotional
disturbance, accidental damage, prolonged imbalance life style. If not kept
mobile & active the tight already tissues can lead to rigidity of joints &
tension of organs. Tendencies to Osteoarthritis , Rheumatism & Constipation
Linen (Majority of people)
More vulnerable structure than the silk with less nervous energy, adrenal flow
or physical hardness, less physically & emotionally rigid with greater
sensitivity to their own & other peoples needs & physical limitations.
Hessian
Slower metabolism, more pronounced where the loosely woven connective tissue in
the thyroid area. More health problems if the body is abused (poor
Diet/alcohol... lack of exercise). The positive side: can relax more easily than
silk & linen, not easily affected by emotional stress.
Net
Large cavities resembling a spider web. Is the weakest. Tendency to low physical
strength & under-function if the body is abused (poor diet, alcohol, lack of
exercise etc...). It's important to prevent illness rather than continually
seeking cure.
Iris Constitutions Show:
Genetic dispositions & hereditary tendencies. General symptoms affecting people
with particular constitution. The general preventive & remedial measures to
build on the constitutional strength & weaknesses.
Other:
I start by highlighting the conditions of the systems, then go to specific
conditions of organs, systems & tissues according to The Iris chart.
Examples below:
The Digestive System
The Stomach & Intestines
* Central toxaemia - orange/brown around the pupil. This condition prohibits
efficient digestion & ability to absorb nutrients as toxic environment leads to
lethargy. Caused by junk food, medications especially antibiotics killing of
friendly bacteria, Negative emotions, anger, depression. The liver, which
filters the accumulated toxins, will be under stress. Flatulence & lethargy are
common symptoms as well.
* Hyperacidity - Silverish/white ring immediately around the pupil that comes
from consumption of acid-forming food/stress. Often leads to hypo acidity.
Symptoms may include Indigestion, Heartburn & Ulcers.
* Hypo-acidity - brown/black ring In this case there is difficulty in absorbing
acid-forming food and a simple diet is required to put as little stresses
possible on the digestive process in the stomach. The most common symptom
includes Indigestion.
* Spastic colon - happens when the colon has lost it's tone & miss-shapen
causing erratic bowel movements. It builds over the years caused by stress ,
diet of refined white flour & other. Symptoms may include inability to maintain
the peristaltic movement.
* Tight colon - This is tension in the walls, the colon squeezes & narrows the
area through which the faeces moves leading to constipation. Causes may include
refined/-spiced food. Constipation is the most common symptom
* Ballooned colon - Loss of tone & strength leading to sluggish bowel movement.
The hormonal glands which lie directly outside the ANW ( Autonomic Nervous Wryth
) are also affected. Symptoms include Constipation, flatulence & bloated ness.
* Impactions - seen as Radii Solaris ( lines as if coming from the pupil within
the ANW ) irritation in the membrane of the stomach If coming from outside the
ANW ==> nerve restriction to that part of the body
* Bowel pockets/Diverticulae, may be caused by old faecal matter stuck in the
inner wall of the intestines because of sluggish bowel movements. Signs include
black/dark brown holes or pockets inside the ANW. Impactions in the ascending
colon may create a reaction in the liver ,breast or lungs. The most common
symptom includes Irritable bowels. * The main digestive organs Liver/Gall
bladder/Pancreas - Toxicity is caused by high fat diet sugars, alcohol, drugs,
medicines, anger frustration and other toxicity in the body leading to
under-functioning liver ( incapable to filtrate the toxins ) Gall bladder is
affected by high saturated fats, chocolates, cheeses, meat creams ect...
Pancreas: in case of under-functioning. sugars & protein-rich foods will add
strain.
The Cardio-Vascular System
* Scurf rim - Darkening around the periphery of the iris indicating poor
arterial circulation, cold extremities Often associated. w/t Dermatitis ,Acne &
other minor skin problems.
* Poor peripheral circulation - fuzziness in the outer peripheral. edge of the
Iris.
* Tendency to varicose veins is easily diagnosed via Iris analysis & the sign
appears as a lacuna at 6 O'clock in the chart , next to the ANW.
* Arcus sinless Whitish or yellow arc around the upper rim indicating poor
supply to the head area caused by hardening of the arteries with cholesterol or
mineral deposits. If un-checked, might lead to the same condition throughout the
body seen around the Iris known as :
* Na-cholesterol Ring. Lab : High serum Cholesterol level.
* Weak Heart tissues indicate that the heart is not strong enough to take
excessive strain. If not looked after through diet, exercise & elimination of
stress symptoms will show up.
The Lymphatic System
* Lymphatic Rosaries appears as clouds white or brown in the Lymphatic zone.
Depending on the position of the rosaries in the iris, the underlying organs
will be congested. Congestion means that the person is unable to eliminate waste
efficiently. This will make the person more prone to infections & allergies
oedema ,hay fever as the immune system will be under- functioning,. Cleansing
Diet is needed.
The Musculo-skeletal system
* Lacunae indicate inherent weakness in the connective tissue in the affected
area. Often caused by daily habits which create poor posture (holding the
telephone All day between the ear & neck ect...) the person will also have a
history of back problems.
* Inflammation/Irritation White discoloration in that area from trauma or acid-forming food
leading to pain arthritic & rheumatic & loose tissue.
* Transverse fibres indicate scarring, fibrosis or injury.
The Nervous System
* Tension-Stress rings. Tension accumulation and presence of tension from
emotions or physical pain. The person will have predisposition to worry, anxiety
. The number of rings & depth will reflect a better picture of the condition of
the nervous system. More than 2 rings indicate that the person holds emotion
inside & tendency to over-react to stressful situations. More than 4 rings
indicate warning that the situation should be dealt with, it is time now to
change. Symptoms include easily stressed, difficulty to relax.
* Tight, small pupil Even in normal lightning indicates current stress ,pain or
under the effect of certain drugs or medications. It is time to unwind & plan a
break before it leads to exhaustion.
* Large pupil indicates nervous exhaustion, drugs normally after a prolonged
period of stress. The person will find it very difficult to deal with the stress
unless remedial action is taken. Lethargy sets in and people start taking
coffee, tea, alcohol & refined sugar which makes the condition worse.
* The Head area could show acute strain, shows as white flares in top part of
the iris ( 11 - 1 O'clock ) indicating recent worries, anxieties, hyper mental
activity & mental stress. Chronic strain shows as darkened area ( 11 - 1 O'clock
) indicating chronic emotional, mental problems unresolved for a long time.
* Disproportionate pupils indicates disturbance in the nervous system. May also
happen directly after a stroke, so its advised to have full medical check up to
insure that there is no haemorrhage of the blood vessel in the head.
* Irritated ANW ( Autonomic Nervous System ) shows as bright white zigzag line
around the pupil about 1-2 mm from the pupil indicating irritation through
emotional conflicts & poor diet. Orange-Brown ANW indicates a chronic condition
mainly comes from intake of artificial nerve stimulants. Broken ANW indicates
little or no nerve supply to the related area. It is recommended to make sure
bowels are moving. Faded ANW indicates low activity. Tonic is given as a boost.
The Respiratory System
* Weakness in the weave of the muscular structure (Lacuna) in the lung area.
This may indicate asthma or history of respiratory problems.
* Congestion in the lungs shows as white clouds or chronic (yellow/brown clouds)
in the lung area. Caused mainly by insufficient elimination, eating mucous
forming food, lack of exercise, smoking ect...
Conclusion
Iridology is a huge subject, the most common signs were highlighted above. So
after making the diagnosis, treatment will follow through various disciplines
which can be monitored by analysing the eyes after the treatment. The signs in
the eyes do change according to the person's health status.
There is more into Iridology, what was
discussed above is only meant to give you an idea about this science.
