How does iridology work?
There are more than 28,000 nerve fibres in the human eye and each one is directly connected to the brain. The brain is in direct contact with all the nerves and cells of the body and as such any defect within the body will show up in the iris. Acute conditions show up as a white mark in the fibres of the iris and is generally associated with pain and inflammation. The darker the mark becomes the more serious the condition (with a black spot indicating a chronic disease). As the body heals itself the spots on the iris often fade and the overall look and clarity of the iris changes. Iridology can also help to determine areas of genetic weakness. The way in which the fibres of the iris are connected together also indicates the general genetic strength of the person. A person whose fibres are located sparsely tends to have a weaker genetic background than one whose fibres are tightly packed. A person’s constitution can be analysed through the study of their eyes. For example, below are two
