Dear Sara,\n\nI will copy part of my answer from your other post:\n\n"At present, the only widely accepted intervention for age-related maculopathy is the use of high-dose antioxidants. However, this treatment only slows progression in some patients and does not reverse damage already present."

Lasik is the way to go. All the other "natural Methods" may improve the sight while you do the exercises but once you quit, it goes back to how it was before. See your local Ophthalmologist.

Glaucoma treatment...\n\nTreatment for glaucoma focuses on preserving eyesight by slowing the damage to the nerve in the back of the eye (optic nerve). Most treatment aims to prevent further damage to the optic nerve by lowering the pressure in the eyes (intraocular pressure, or IOP).\n\nGlaucoma is usually treated with medications such as eyedrops. Laser treatment or surgery is often needed.\n\nNaturopathic Treatments.......\n\nStudies show patients can reduce their eye pressure by five to seven millimeters with an improved diet and supplement program. In general, a diet high in betacarotene, vitamins C and E, and sulfur-bearing amino acids are recommended. Foods containing those nutrients include garlic, onions, beans, spinach, celery, turnips, yellow and orange vegetables, green leafy vegetables, seaweed, apples, oranges and tomatoes. \n\nDaily juicing of vegetables and fruits (preferably organic). Our glaucoma recipe is some combination of the following: celery, carrots, cucumber, radish, turnip, parsley, beets, cabbage, raspberries, plums, apple (not too much fruit). For more information, go to "Click Here". \n\nDrink lots of water - 8-10 glasses of purified water. Avoid carbonated, caffeinated and alcoholic beverages. They can actually dehydrate your eyes. \nManage your stress - meditate, take a walk in nature, practice yoga, visualization techniques or prayer on a daily basis. \n\nExercise daily - do at least 20 minutes of aerobic exercise daily. Walking and swimming are two excellent forms of exercise. \n\nEye exercises can help to bring energy and blood to the eyes, thereby helping to drain away toxins or congestion to the eyes. \n\nAvoid foods to which you are allergic: a study of 113 patients with chronic simple glaucoma showed immediate IOP increases of up to 20 millimeters when they were exposed to foods in to which they were allergic. Manage stress. Take up meditation, yoga, tai chi, or any practice that helps you relax. Some consider glaucoma a stress related condition. \n\nSupplement your diet with a good multivitamin such as One Plus Multivitamin (see website for more information) and/or a good Green Drink (see Paleogreens).

There is no treatment for color blindness.  It occures when there is a lack of certain color receptors in the eye. The person could be 'trained' to differentiate between the colors,\nbut would never be able to see true green or red.\n\nFYI- color blindness is a trait carried by the female but only shows up in males.

Nutritional therapy\nThe following nutritional supplements may help improve vision:\n• Vitamin A: essential vitamin for healthy eyes.\n• Bioflavonoids. These plant chemicals can help myopic people see better, especially at night\n• Zinc: may improve night vision\n• Ginkgo extract: increases blood supply to the eye. It may help prevent deterioration in vision.\nSome eye care professionals recommend exercises to help improve circulation, reduce eye strain, and relax the eye muscles. The Bates method is a common set of exercises. It is possible that by combining exercises with changes in behavior, the progression of myopia may be slowed or prevented. Alternative treatments include: visual therapy (also referred to as vision training or eye exercises); discontinuing close work; reducing eye strain (taking a rest break during periods of prolonged near vision tasks); and wearing bifocals to decrease the need to accommodate when doing close-up work.

Not especially. In order to see in the dark, you'd need some new types of photoreceptors in your eyes. Short of bionic eyes, nanotechnology, or genetic engineering, good luck with that.

Yes, it would be possible, depending on the reason for blindness.

I don't know but there's some interesting stuff in a book called "Take Off Your Glasses and See" by Jacob Lieberman about how there are people who are "blind" who can "see", even to describe the trees on the road they are walking on, if you are interested in other aspects of blindness.

No, there's no known cure.

Is that where you re color blind? I suggest going to a college that people study to be an eye doctor and ask if that is in their curriculum. Its cheap and they can fix you blindness. also you are helping a student achieve their dreams
