Ok, I have some cineraria tincture, which I got some years ago but didn't
use as directed because it just stung so much.  It says 1 drop in the
eyes 4-5 times a day.  I don't think I'm likely to do it that often,
cataract or no cataracts; the best I ended up doing was putting it on the
eyelid for some principal to seep through.  I suspect the practitioner
didn't realise it was so strong - maybe it was to be succussed or
something.  

Anyway, I've just brought a coconut home with me and am wondering whether
to put some cineraria tincture in the cocounut milk and get the best of
both remedies.

SANDEE - please, more details about your "cineraria drop" - how, what,
how often, for how long?

Here is another interesting site:
