EYE ALLERGY: A girl age 7 had itching eyes when in a church basement classroom. A facial tissue
was used to collect dust and perhaps molds from the basement floor and was placed in a plastic bag.
NST indicated allergy to the specimen and was treated with NAET holding the bag in her hand.
Subsequently there are no more symptoms when she was in the church basement.
ALLERGY TO FACIAL TISSUE: Following retinal eye surgery a lady continued to have a painful red
eye for a few weeks. The retinal specialist indicated that it was very abnormal for this intense reaction to
continue for such an extended period of time after surgery. NST indicated allergic response when she
placed her finger on the lids of the affected eye and also to the Puffs Plus facial tissues she was using. She
was NST was not allergic to Kleenex brand. Of course the use of the Puffs Plus was discontinued. A
NAET treatment to Puffs Plus was used to provide immediate relief. Apparently Puffs Plus contains an
added chemical to increase softness. One other patient has had contact dermatitis of the eyelids due to
Puffs Plus.
ALLERGY TO TOPICAL ANESTHESIA: Two patients undergoing cataract surgery with anesthesia
eye drops had very red eyes. The anesthesia was not effective to relieve pain and was supplemented with
another anesthesia eye drop. Both patients tested NST allergice to the first anesthetic drops. Their
allergies to tetracaine have not yet been removed.
ALLERGY TO EYE DROPS: A patient examined in the office had marked eye redness swelling and
discomfort due to eye drops to prepare the eye to check the eye pressure. I assured the patient that the
reaction would not last long. The patient was very uncomfortable. NAET was done to remove her allergy
to those eye drops and the reaction resolved in a few minutes. She was grateful for the relief of the
discomfort.
ALLERGY TO EYE DROPS: A lady age 60 developed red eyes after using anesthetic eye drops to
check her eye pressure. She tested allergic to the drops. The allergy to the anesthetic was removed with
NAET. The eye redness resolved in about 10 minutes. A year later she was still (NST) negative to those
drops and it was used in her eyes without adverse reaction.
ALLERGY TO EYE DROPS: A lady age 77 had an intense red eye reaction to eye drops used as
anesthetic at attempted cataract surgery. The surgery was cancelled. There was also inadequate
anesthesia. NST revealed sensitivity to the drops. Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET)
was used to remove the allergy to the anesthetic drops. A week later cataract surgery was performed with
successful anesthesia using the same drops. There was no red response to the drops. Sensitivity to topical
anesthetics is a very rare occurrence. This patient demonstrated inadequate anesthesia with a medication
to which she was sensitive. Information is not found in the literature on the lack of anesthesia response to
anesthetics to which persons are allergic.
ALLERGY TO CONTACT LENS SOLUTION: A lady 45 wears soft contact lens in one eye only.
Her chief complaint was a red sore eye for three days. She had not worn the lens for three days. She had
used antibiotic Ciloxan drops suspecting an eye infection. There was moderate redness and a diffuse
cornea irritation. There were no secretions on her lids or lashes suggestive of infection.
Sensitivity to Ciloxan or contact lens solution was suspected. NST indicated no allergy to Ciloxan but
strong allergy to the contact lens solution she was using. She was NST negative to another brand of
contact lens solution. It was recommended to discontinue the contact lens solution to which she was using
and to use the other brand. The sore eyes resolved in a few days.
Sore eyes due to sensitivity to chemicals in contact lens solutions sometimes persist for days or weeks.
NST is an adjunct to diagnosis. The sensitivity can be removed with Nambudripad Allergy Elimination
Technique to relieve the irritation.
ALLERGY TO CONTACT LENS SOLUTION: A young man age 19 had worn disposable contact
lenses a few years. He developed red eyes. Neuromuscular Sensitivity Testing (NST) revealed allergy to
the contact lens solution he was using. He was not allergic to another brand of contact lens solution. He
was advised to use a new pair of disposable lenses and the solution to which he was not allergic.
EYE ALLERGY: A lady age 40 wearing soft contact lenses had had red eyes for months. She had been
using Alcon Express No Rub and B&L Renew contact lens solutions.
Neuromuscular Sensitivity Testing (NST) indicated allergy to both the contact lens cleaners she had been
using but not to Solo Care by Ciba Vision.
She had no red eyes after switching to the Solo product. It was explained that if she developed allergy to
other lens products, allergy could be removed with NAET.
EYE ALLERGY: A man age 72 presented with a chief complaint of watery eyes only when he entered
his home. He is a farmer and has not symptoms out of doors or in other buildings. Allergic conjunctivitis
was suspected. Patanol allergy relief eye drops were prescribed which provided some but unsatisfactory
relief. House dust allergy was suspected. Some dust from the office floor was collected on a facial tissue.
NST indicated no allergy to the office dust. It was requested that he bring a sample of dust on a tissue
placed in a plastic bag from his house.
He was NST allergic to the dust from his house. The allergy was removed with Nambudripad Allergy
Elimination Technique (NAET).
One week later he had had no more watering of his eyes when he entered his house and required no more
Patanol drops.
ALLERGY TO EYE DROPS: A lady age 85 who has glaucoma said she had experienced a blur for a
few days after each office visit for evaluating the statues of her glaucoma. She wondered if the blur was
related to the drops used when eye pressure was checked.
Neuromuscular Sensitivity Testing (NST) Technique reveled that she was allergic to anesthetic drops used
prior to checking the pressure in the eyes.
Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique was used to remove allergy to these anesthetic medications.
She no longer experienced blur after the pressure was checked for evaluation of her glaucoma.
EYE ALLERGY: A lady age 92 presented with a chief complaint of watery eyes. She said she had had
watery eyes for about a month in the spring and a month in the fall for many years.
A fresh sample of pollens of that day was obtained by rubbing a paper tissue on an outside windowsill and
a car window. Neuromuscular Sensitivity Testing (NST) revealed she was strongly positive to that pollen
sample. It indicated an allergy to pollens in the air that day.
Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique was used to eliminate the allergy. She reported that her eyes
no longer watered by the time she left the office.
ALLERGY TO LUMIGAN: Mary, age 85 uses Lumigan eye drops each evening for treatment of
glaucoma. For a few weeks her eyes had been red and were itching on awakening the next morning.
When she touched each eye-NST indicated allergy to the medication. She also tested NST allergic to
Travatan and Xalatan, which are the other medications of the same class medications.
A bottle of Lumigan was not available with which to remove the allergy with Nambudripad Allergy
Elimination Technique (NAET). A facial tissue was used to rub across the eyelids several times. It
absorbed enough of the drops, and she exhibited an allergic NST response to the tissue.
The allergy was removed with NAET while she held the tissue. She was able to resume using Lumigan
medication without the allergic response of red itching eyes.
EYE ALLERGY: A lady age 54 presented a history of itching blurry left eye for two weeks. When she
touched the left eye Neuromuscular Sensitivity Test (NST) indicated strongly allergic. NST also indicated
allergy when she touched her clothes that had been washing in Tide detergent. She also tested allergic to a
test vial of Tide detergent and also to a tissue used to wipe the tears from the left eye.
Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET) was accomplished with the patient holding the tear
stained tissue and test vial of Tide detergent. After the treatment the patient volunteered the information
that the itching and tearing sensations had been relieved.
ALLERGIC CONJUNCTIVITIS: A girl age 15 wears Focus Night & Day 30 day soft contact lenses.
The left eye became mildly red, and she rubbed the eye because it itched. The school nurse sent her home
suspecting “pink eye”. There were no secretions on the lashes suggesting pink eye, and the eye was only
mildly red. Itching was a predominant symptom. This was not an infectious contagious eye infection. The
Neuromuscular Sensitivity Test (NST) indicated allergy when she touched her eye and touched her
clothing. Her mother said several different laundry detergents were used plus fabric softener. Previous
experience had led to the suspicion of detergent or fabric softener transferred to the eye by a finger
touching the clothes washed in detergent resulting in an allergic reaction. She was allergic to detergent or
fabric softener used to wash her clothes. Treatment options included temporary relief with topical
medications, changing of detergents, eliminating fabric softeners, and elimination the allergies with
Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET). She opted for temporary relief with topical
medications.
ALLERGY TO TIDE: Linda age 61 presented with burning itching eyes and eyelids of two days
duration. A red swollen area over the cheekbone below the left eye also felt hot and itched. She had
noted tiny itching bumps on her fingers for two weeks.
Neuromuscular Sensitivity Testing (NST) indicated allergy when she touched her eyelids and also when
she touched her clothing. She said she used Tide laundry detergent. The NST test was also positive to a
test vial of Tide. It was explained that the finger pads are sensitive to things to which a person is allergic.
The allergy causes muscles to be weak for testing purposes. In this case the arm muscles were used.
The source of the allergy in her eyes and on the skin of the lids was the transfer of minute amounts of tide
from her clothes her eyes via her fingers. Three methods of treatment were offered. Eye drops could
suppress the allergic response, and a weak corticosteroid cream could suppress the allergic response on
the skin of the lids. An oral antihistamine tablet could help suppress the allergic response and she should
feel better in a few hours.
Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET) was the other therapy offered with an expected
immediate relief of symptoms and permanent cure of the Tide allergy.
She opted for the NAET treatment. Immediately following the treatment she commented that the itching
had ceased and that her eyes actually felt cool. When she looked into a mirror she could observe that the
redness of the lids had disappeared, and the red swollen area on her left cheek was much less red and
swollen.
As she was leaving the office she confessed that she had had no confidence in the treatment but was
extremely pleased that the itching, burning eyes were completely relieved. It was explained that she need
not change types of detergents because she was no longer allergic to Tide.
ALLERGY TO SHAMPOO: A lady age 88 in a nursing home had had very red itching eyes and
eyelids for one week.
Examination revealed intense redness of the conjunctiva and skin of the eyelids. Nizoral had been used as
a shampoo. Neuromuscular Sensitivity Testing (NST) revealed an allergic response when she touched her
eyelids and also when she touched her hair. It was theorized that she had touched her hair and transferred
the Nizoral allergen to her eyes with her fingers.
The desired treatment would have been NAET to a tissue rubbed on her lids and hair. Unfortunately she
was in a wheel chair and carrying an oxygen tank. NAET treatment would have been uncomfortable for
her. It was recommended to wash her hair with baby shampoo to eliminate the Nizoral allergen from her
hair. Eye drops to relieve the allergic response and cream for the skin were prescribed.
ALLERGIC RED EYES: Janet age 56 wearing rigid contact lenses had red itching aching eyes.
Neuromuscular Sensitivity Testing (NST) indicated allergy when she touched her eyelids with her finger, to
a tissue with which she had rubbed her eyes and also to a tissue that was wiped on a car window glass
outside the office and outside windowsill that day. NAET was done with both tissues. At the end of the
30-minutes treatment she volunteered the information that the aching was mostly relieved. Her eyes were
also less red. She was likely allergic to some pollens of that season, and that allergy was eliminated with
NAET.
ALLERGY TO CONTACT LENS SOLUTION: A schoolteacher age 52 had but one seeing eye.
That eye had had cataract surgery without a lens implant, a filtering implant for glaucoma and a very
distorted cornea that prevented useable vision with glasses. A special design rigid gas permeable contact
lens allowed suitable vision for her to teach school. After wearing the contact lens for several months it
became uncomfortable, and the vision became blurred.
Neuromuscular Sensitivity Testing (NST) revealed an allergic response when she touched her affected eye
to the contact lens after it had been removed from the eye, and to a bottle of the contact lens solution she
had been using. The cornea on which the contact lens rested was very irritated caused by allergy to the
contact lens solution. She was NST not allergic to another brand of contact lens solution. She
volunteered that the contact lens was comfortable when the lens was reinserted into the eye using the
solution to which she was not allergic. The blur had been caused by excess mucus on the lens stimulated
by the allergic response. The vision was clear when using the non-allergic solution because of absence of
excessive mucus on the lens.
This case illustrates the value of NST testing to determine within minutes that allergy to the contact lens
solution was the cause of the blur and discomfort. It was possible to identify a solution to which she was
not allergic at that office visit setting without weeks of trial and error. She was able to realize good vision
and return to teaching school that day.
EYE ALLERGY: The chief complaint of a lady 84 was intense itching in her left eye. Neuromuscular
Sensitivity Testing (NST) indicated allergy when she touched her eye and also when she touched her
pants. A tissue rubbed on the pants also elicited an allergic NST response. NST indicated no allergy
when she touched her blouse. She said she washes her blouse in Palmolive dish detergent. Her pants are
washed in the nursing home laundry. The allergy to the laundry detergent was removed with Nambudripad
Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET) while she was holding the tissue that had been rubbed on her
pants. The symptom of itching left eye was eliminated.
