Iridiology: useful?

Hi,

Has anyone had good results from Iridology?

I’m not expecting to become a professional Iridologist. But with software and a good camera which are available for about $1000, getting the evidence for analysis doesn’t look that difficult. If I’m looking for an approximate understanding of what’s going on inside the patient’s body, I get the feeling that I could learn it pretty easily. I’m an extremely visual person. That is I have a very good visual memory.

Patients tell me about what the doctor said, but even if the doctor did a good diagnosis, the patients are usually very vague and not dependable. Also of course, medical suppression leaves a blank picture in the patient.
I am thinking of using iridology for confirming organ weakness and doing better prognosis. I realize that Iridiology will do little to find me the remedy. I use the TCM pulse and tongue diagnoses and sometimes it’s helpful, but I’m not that skilled. So when I don’t get much information from the pulse and tongue or from the interview, I’m looking for some other source of information.

Does anybody have experience?

Best,

Ellen Madono

I studied Iridology, never bothered with a software but only with a good magnifying lens and a chart on paper...sometimes, but rarely taking an eye photo with my cell phone.

Nowadays I rarely use it if at all.

Did you find the iridology to be not accurate or telling you what you already knew?

I doubt that I could get a patient to sit for me for as long as it would take me to study the iris.

It rarely did add anything I did not already know through the other channels I use....good confirmatory though, but it might lead to "sloppiness" in diagnosis if you start with it, use a programme to get the results, then "why bother with anything else, everything is in the eye"...it is only one more tool that I might use when I am completely stumped and do not know where to start.

Try taking pictures with your cellphone or a digital camera, then you can study it at ease and show the patient what you see, always much appreciated.

I was not able to get very good photos with my iphone. But, I was taking my own eye. Also, I needed to be outside. Especially for brown eyes, lighting is important.
Also, I have a feeling that as an MD, you are very sure of your physical diagnosis. I don't trust patient descriptions. Good for sensations. I am wishing for a quick eyeball view of what I need to be looking into on a physical level. I am not trained to listen to the heart etc. The tongue and pulse are my most basic nonverbal guides.

I have studied Irisology at my college, but I hardly used it, because I don’t have the equipament, but I would say will complement your practice quite well. Which software and camera are you interested in buying? Regards Renee

Hi Rene,

I am the type who learns by doing.

So, I am looking at professional cameras. Either the SD8004 for 3,000 plus dollars or the I160 IrisLabs for 2,000 plus dollars.

I will not invest in certification, but I will focus on just getting profession equipment and information and using it to learn it. That's my way of learning. Steal it from the masters while doing the actual work. Then I will teach it to the others with the intention that they can steal from me.

I think Dr. Roz is teaching me here in that way and I am very grateful.

Blessings,
Ellen Madono
