    I started using organic cold-pressed hexane- free castor oil on my eye lashes and eye lids 7 months ago, 2 x a day, to heal my dry skin and eye brow area. 3 weeks later, I noticed I was no longer using my eye drops. Last week I went for my eye appt. (I am 65 yrs old) and my doc was amazed that my cataracts were better and my eyeball looked perfect (I previously had some retina tearing). I will continue to use!

      Yes, I did. I bought an organic one which has a dropper. I put a drop in each eye. As of today, the new floaters, one big one, are still there, but what I believe must have been drops of blood are gone. The flashes of light are all but gone, as well. Which is the most exciting thing.
      However, I've also taken extra potassium, because I learned that dry eye can be a result of deficiency. I also took extra Arctic cod liver oil, as well as extra whole food vitamin C and extra whole food B complex.
      And, I tried to get in a lot more fluids, because vitreous detachment seems mostly about having enough fluids and oils in the body.
      Hope that makes sense.
      I have been having pain in my eyes, but had that just prior to using castor oil. Not sure if it's my eye nerves, inflammation, or both. It has been subsiding, for the most part.

    I have been using castor oil for many years on my hair, eyelashes, and eyebrows for years. I’m 75 and it’s helping with loss of hair in all three places. I add rosemary oil to make a scalp rub. I think if I was more consistent I’d have a better outcome. But, it does help.

    I’ve used castor oil on my scalp for thinning hair for years. When my hair starts looking thin around the facial hair line and top of scalp I’ll brush some through my hair on the weekends and within a month I’ll see new hair growth. It truly works, even have my son using it on thin patches in his beard and he swears by it. I also have blephritis and put 1 drop in each eye twice a week, that also helps and definitely regrows thinning lashes.

    I don’t know about castor oil growing eyelashes but for everything else castor oil is my go-to medication, for scrapes, cuts, bruises,etc. if you can rub some castor oil on these mishaps, the pain recedes and is gone by ten minutes, and the hurt area heals quicker. In fact, my experience is that bruises don’t even form and discolor the skin. It has a chemical in it that numbs pain according to some studies, and yes it really does that. I even keep castor oil in a little bottle in my car and my purse. I would put it in my eyes but it blurs vision being a thick oil.

    If the oil glands are clogged up, due to blepharitis, wouldn’t caster oil make it worse ?

      i would think like applying any natural oil to the skin as a cleanser - natural oils (castor oil, coconut oil, argon oil etc), these oils actually pull out the dirt from your skin, I'm thinking the same applies to the blocked tear duct. The caster oil pulls out the 'block' while adding moisture at the same time. It's an awesome remedy for so many things! I'll be adding eye care to the list now!

    I've learned: If a product states that it will make your lashes LOOK or APPEAR longer, that's a good clue that it's not going to lengthen or thicken them. It means it MIGHT only make them LOOK longer, thicker, or moisturized. It doesn't state it WILL do whatever. As always thanks for all the great info Dr!

    • @Alicewonders828
      @Alicewonders828 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      My product doesn't say anything about it helping lashes but it did make the lashes much longer, thicker and darker. You wash the oil off every morning of course. It actually looked weird to have great lashes on one eye, so now I'm putting it in both. I was using it for dry eye, but the cataract the Doc mentioned would need surgery last year has improved so much that he didn't even mention it on the last visit.

    I used castor oil in my lashes for some months, I didn't expect anything, I just thought of giving it a try. It definitely made them look thicker when they had oil, obviously. But some weeks after I stopped, I actually noticed that my lashes looked a tiny bit longer and thicker. My thought was that it protected them and allowed to grow more without breaking🤔. Also, I'm getting the same effect with Vaseline 🤷🏻‍♀️
    Unfortunately I think I got milia from it 🙄
