Iridology, also known as iridodiagnosis, is an alternative medicine technique that assesses an individual's general health by looking at the colours, patterns, and other properties of the iris. Iridology is a technique based on the belief that each organ in the human body corresponds to a region in the iris.
Iridologists examine the patient's iris with cameras, flashlights, and microscopes to look for tissue changes, stromal irregularities, and pigment patterns.
Iridology can detect ten conditions.
Hypertension: A ring around the iris may indicate high blood pressure, as evidenced by a sluggish metabolism. If hypertension is not detected early, it can cause a slew of problems, and an experienced iridologist can help.
Hyperthyroidism: Eyes that appear to bulge slightly can often indicate an overactive thyroid, which an iridologist can detect and compare to a chart to identify related issues. Fatigue, anxiety, rapid heartbeat, weight loss, and difficulty sleeping are all symptoms of this condition.
Damage to the liver: Brown spots in the liver section of the iris can be used by a trained iridologist to detect liver damage. This can sometimes manifest as emotional issues like depression, and if caught early enough, a treatment regimen can often stop the disease from progressing and causing further damage to this vital organ.
Gallbladder problems: An iridologist can detect gallbladder and bile duct issues that can affect liver function by examining the eye for signs of jaundice – a yellowing of the white of the eye.
Inflammation: Iridologists can identify certain indicators of inflammation in those specific areas because the iris is divided into different sections that correspond to different body zones. Inflammation can be a precursor to a variety of serious diseases, so it's critical to catch it early.
Immune system is weakened: White markings in the iris may indicate a weakened immune system, according to an iridologist. Immune-boosting regimens can be suggested as a way to strengthen the patient's system and make them less susceptible to illness.
