I must say your lack of belief in alternative medicine is very disturbing and closed minded.

I had a desperate condition that was cured by a simple supplement that the doctor recommended based on early research (aloe vera pills). This is a substance that 5 years ago would have been considered "homeopathic" but now is being researched heavily for use in inflammatory digestive diseases.

Don't eye doctors often prescribe vitamins for diseases when no direct correlation has been proven yet?

The question the person asks is a fair one, and I don't think it does anyone good to be so submissive of it.

Homeopathic medicine is a waste of time, money and other than dumb luck or shear coincidence doesn't work.

Your problem can only be dealt with by an Eye MD that can examine your eye. I'm sorry but I can't tell you anthing about what can, or should be done for you.
