We based this Eye Drop on Castor Oil. Castor Oil is one of the most well-known benefits of castor oil for eyes is its ability to moisturize and lubricate the delicate skin around the eyes. This helps to alleviate the discomfort associated with dry eyes. Castor oil helps stabilize the tear film on the surface of the eye, preventing tears from evaporating too quickly. This can lead to improved symptoms of dry eyes and a more comfortable overall eye feel. Meibomian glands, located along the eyelid margins, play a crucial role in producing the oily layer of the tear film. Castor oil can help improve meibomian gland function and reduce the symptoms of meibomian gland dysfunction, a common cause of dry eyes. The oil’s anti-inflammatory properties help unclog blocked glands. This allows them to produce the necessary oils to maintain a healthy tear film. Blepharitis, or inflammation of the eyelids, can cause discomfort, redness, and irritation. A 2021 study suggested that applying castor oil twice daily for 4 weeks could help reduce blepharitis symptoms. The oil’s antimicrobial properties help combat the bacteria that contribute to blepharitis. Plus, Castor oil can also help dissolve crusts that form along the eyelid margins, a common symptom of blepharitis. The antioxidants, proteins, vitamins, fatty acids, and nutrients in castor oil can nourish hair follicles and promote the growth of longer, thicker eyelashes. Regular application of castor oil to the lashes can help prevent breakage and encourage healthy growth. The oil’s ricinoleic acid content stimulates blood circulation around the hair follicles, providing them with the necessary nutrients for optimal growth. Many users report seeing significant improvements in the length and thickness of their lashes after just a few weeks of consistent use. The anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties of castor oil can help soothe irritated eyes. This provides relief from redness, itching, and discomfort. Whether your eyes are irritated due to allergies, environmental factors, or other causes, castor oil can help calm and heal the delicate skin around your eyes. The antioxidants in castor oil may help slow the progression of cataracts, a common age-related eye condition that causes cloudy vision. Cataracts form when proteins in the eye’s lens begin to clump together, causing the lens to become cloudy and obscuring vision. The antioxidants in castor oil, such as vitamin E, may help protect the lens from oxidative damage and slow down the formation of cataracts. However, it is important to note that castor oil should not be used as a substitute for proper medical treatment of cataracts. 16 Benefits of Castor Oil for Eyes and How to Use It Safely (naturalremedyideas.com)

We added Gingko which has been used for centuries for problems with the central nervous system as well as a remedy for eye problems.
