Eyebright probably got its name because it provides comfort in the form of moisture for dry eyes.
However, its effectiveness has not been proven in a scientific sense.
Nevertheless, herbal medicine has long relied on eyebright as a medicinal plant against dry eyes and inflammation of the eye or eye area.
Pour half a liter of boiling water over 1 tablespoon of dried eyebright herb and then let it steep for 10 minutes.
For external use, soak a cotton pad with the cooled brew and dab it around the eye.
Eyebright is also available as a filling material in the NaturGut eye care pillows available from us
