Praise for Ten Essentials to Save Your Vision A Template for Complete Health Maintenance, Health Restoration, and the Prevention of Disease in Any Part of the Body “Don’t wait until you have a vision problem. Get this book and follow its advice. It is a must-read.” -Charles M. Steinberg, OD, NQA Gesell Institute Of Child Development “Dr. Edward Kondrot is a messenger of hope. I am grateful beyond words to have this visionary doctor give me a huge measure of control over the gift of sight.” -Dianne Cecchett, patient “An integrative primer for just about any organ system in the body. It should be required reading for all students in traditional medical schools and anyone who wants a guidebook on how to live a healthy and complete life.” -Dr. Bruce H. Shelton, MD, MD(H), DiHom, FBIH Homeopathic Family Physician President, AHIMA “I don’t believe there is a better book in which to fi nd so much information that is both cur- rent and thorough on the subject of alternative treatments for the eyes. This book needs to be in the hands of all doctors treating eye diseases.” -Joyce Hill, patient Edward C. Kondrot, MD, MD(H), CCH, DHt, FCOS Dr. Kondrot is a world leading Homeopathic Ophthalmologist who devotes his practice to traditional and alternative therapies for the treatment of eye disease.

To reach Dr. Kondrot directly, email [email protected]. ® advantagefamily.com US $24.95 Praise for Ten Essentials to Save Your Vision Dr. Edward Kondrot is a messenger of hope. He truly embodies the ideal of “First, do no harm.” His careful explanations of the ten essentials to eye health serve as a powerful introduction and reinforcement to those who choose this road less traveled. I found this book fascinating. I am grateful beyond words to have this visionary doctor give me a huge measure of control over the gift of sight. -Dianne Cecchett Since relocating to the Phoenix area in the summer of 2006, I have consulted with and been treated by Dr. Kondrot for age-related macular degeneration and cataracts in both eyes. Both of these conditions are continually improving (as is my eyesight), both functionally and in acuity, as a result of following the lifestyle changes and therapies Dr. Kondrot espouses. is, his latest book, is a cornucopia of great information on eye health and the treatments available to reverse eye problems. As with most successful therapies, the patient needs to accept responsibility for needed lifestyle changes, which Dr. Kondrot has detailed in this book. -Louis Drummond Most doctors who treat eye disease and prescribe glasses mean well. However, their training is overwhelmingly biased toward the standard treatment of prescription glasses and surgery. ey have no background in nutrition or non-conventional approaches to treating problems with the eyes. Most optometrists and ophthalmologists treat the eyes as isolated parts of the body. e connection between overall health and eye health is not even addressed during mainstream eye exams. at is why this book, Ten Essentials to Save Your Vision, is so very valuable. I don’t believe there is a better book in which to nd so much information that is both current and thorough on the subject of alternative treatments for the eyes. e wonderful bene t of the book is its extensive coverage of nutrition, vitamins, drinking water, toxicities in our environment, and exercise, etc. Not only will our eyes improve when we apply the information to our daily lives, but our overall health will also reap big rewards. We may be able to prevent other health problems because of the valuable information in the book. Most people, if given the chance, want to take control of their own health. Dr. Kondrot has done the research for us and we now have choices to make. is book needs to be in the hands of all doctors treating eye diseases. We need these treatment options available in our local communities. Unfortunately, it is hard to nd practitioners able to perform some of the recommended treatments. Some of the therapies involve a cost. If more doctors were trained in using the treatments, the cost might be lower. e Bates Method and other therapies described in the book are not widely accepted in the medical community. We need more controlled studies so that the leaders of institutions training our doctors will recognize the bene ts. We need to educate ourselves—and our eye doctors! is very readable book is a good start. Get this eye-opening book into the hands of as many people as possible, especially those treating our eyes and those training our doctors. Continue studying and writing about the research being done here and in other countries. -Joyce Hill As a registered nurse, I have seen the long-term problems and side e ects that go along with treating symptoms rather than the underlying causes of disease. is book is for anyone who wants to take control of his or her health and vision by addressing the processes that lead to macular degeneration, along with nding out what critical steps need to be taken to improve sight and to reverse AMD. -Leslie Degner, RN, BSN http://www.webrn-maculardegeneration.com/ Writing in a conversational, breezy, and easily understood style, Dr. Kondrot has packed this book with essential information and advice. is is an essential read for those who desire to maintain or improve their eye and vision health. He includes chapters on a variety of modalities readers can incorporate in their lives to improve their vision, from nutrition and supplements to microcurrent and stem cell therapy. De nitely a must-read! -Margaret Smith Ten Essentials to Save Your Vision discusses many factors that have a bearing on sight and functional vision. Not only does this book give information on how to regain sight after injury or disease, it also gives valuable information on how to stay healthy. It treats the person as a whole, not segmented in parts. -Norman L. Elliott, OD If you have eye problems, please don’t surrender to allowing “normal disease progression” while your eye doctor watches. e suggestions in this book are clear, straightforward, logical, and, in my experience, e ective. I can assure you that even if your health challenges are not in your eyes, the suggestions in this book will go very far to assisting your body in healing. Remember, whatever helps any cell in your body to recover will be of assistance to every other cell, since your body is an integrated whole. I could go on and on about di erent healing modalities, but it’s better now that you hear this from Dr. Kondrot. Enjoy your journey back to health! - Dr. Robert Rowen Editor of Second Opinion Newsletter ank you for the opportunity to review this exciting book. Dr. Kondrot’s down-to-earth ability to explain even the most di cult concepts makes the book easy to read. Several items that caught my “eye” were zinc de ciency, postural de ciency syndrome, and how seven of twelve cranial nerves are related to the eyes. Dr. Kondrot says, “We all have a personal Grizzly Bear.” Regardless of one’s eye condition, Dr. Kondrot’s primary concern is “to convince you [and me] to invest in [our] health. It is [our] most important asset.” -Rosalyn Fast, BEd Dr. Kondrot has written a book that can be an integrative primer for just about any organ system in the body, including the eyes. It is a basic “Handbook for Healthy Living” as well as a very exacting and common sense therapy program for eye diseases. It should be required reading for all students in traditional medical schools, all students in American high school and colleges, and anyone who wants a guidebook on how to live a healthy and complete life. I wholeheartedly recommend that YOU read it. -Dr. Bruce H. Shelton, MD, MD(H), DiHom, FBIH Homeopathic Family Physician President, AHIMA ere is an admonition that goes like this: “Put your eyes back in your head!” at is exactly what Dr. Edward Kondrot, a holistic ophthalmologist, does in his ground- breaking book, Ten Essentials to Save Your Vision. He not only puts the eyes in the head, he also puts the head on the body. He maintains that our overall state of health has a great deal to do with the state of our vision. Dr. Kondrot insists that no treatment for eye disease, whether conventional or alternative, will be e ective without the minimum groundwork of good nutrition, a balanced nervous system, and proper hydration. Ten Essentials o ers a way for anyone to step up a personal health program. e beginner can start to improve eyesight by switching to organic food and proper supplements. e more sophisticated health reader can investigate the power of oxygen therapies and detoxi cation. Dr. Kondrot is dedicated to self-empowerment as well as to rekindling hope in even people with the most advanced cases of vision loss. If African Dance can replace eye drops for glaucoma and palming (placing the hands over closed eyes) can reverse visual loss, I say go for it.

    Vision Therapy and Post-Concussion Syndrome Management: A Case Report Elizabeth Murray OD, Katie Connolly OD Abstract: Current therapy for post-concussion syndrome with visual symptoms are to rest and decrease visual demand. This case looks at vision therapy for first line treatment when decreasing visual demand is not ideal. I. Case History On 5/30/2017, a 37 year old white male presented for persistent visual symptoms following a traumatic brain injury to the occipital lobe with torsion on the brain stem. The injury occurred on 4/3/2017 from a motor vehicle accident, and he had since been cleared from cognitive rest. At the time of the accident, he reported no loss of consciousness but did have post traumatic amnesia. Initially, he reported feeling fine, but his symptoms progressively worsened. He denied blur and diplopia, but was symptomatic for significant cognitive fatigue, gaze instability, visual stimuli triggered headaches, photophobia, and noise sensitivity. He is a pediatric oncologist with significant visual and cognitive demanding duties that exacerbate his symptoms. Ocular and medical history were unremarkable prior to the accident. At the time, he was taking Fioricet and Amitriptyline as directed for headaches and to aid in sleep, respectively. He had been seeing a Chiropractor for vestibular therapy that included some oculomotor therapy and planned to begin cognitive therapy at an outpatient rehabilitation hospital. II. Pertinent findings Entering distance visual acuities were 20/20 OD, OS and OU and near visual acuities were 20/20 OD, 20/25-1 OS, and 20/15-1 OU, without correction. Pupils and extraocular muscles were unremarkable.

The civilian population will probably feel the effects of these remedies which are causing some concern in optical circles. The present authors are attempting to attack the problem experimentally and this paper is presented as a survey of the field as it has been expressed by various writers.

  • Health Care Flexible Spending Account Expense Eligibility List
    Health Care Flexible Spending Account Expense Eligibility List The health care FSA expense eligibility list will help you identify specific services, products and medications that are eligible for reimbursement under your health care flexible spending account (HC FSA) or your limited health care flexible spending account (if you have an HSA, your participation in the health care FSA is limited to out-of-pocket dental and vision expenses). You can use the list to search for the expense you have a question about, and it will show you if that expense is covered under the HC FSA and/or the limited HC FSA. It will also show you whether you need to submit a Letter of Medical Necessity and/or a doctor’s prescription for the expense to be reimbursed. Although not every expense is listed here, there are over 500 services, products, and medications that serve as a guide to eligible expenses. As additional information is available, this summary list will be updated, but the information is general and may be changed or updated without notice. Expenses are determined to be eligible for FSA reimbursement depending on the TriNet plan document, which must comply with Internal Revenue Code rulings. If a difference occurs between this list and either TriNet’s plan document or an Internal Revenue Code ruling, TriNet’s plan document, in compliance with the Internal Revenue Code, will govern. As FSA regulations are constantly changing, this summary does not guarantee reimbursement, but can be used as a guideline for submitting claims. If you have specific questions, you may call the TriNet Solution Center at 800.638.0461, Monday through Friday, 4:30 a.m.- 9 p.m.
