Eyewash
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon comfrey root
- 1 tablespoon fennel seeds
- 1 cup water
- 1 teaspoon goldenseal powder (optional)
Instructions
- Bring comfrey root, fennel seeds and water to boil, then simmer for a few minutes. Remove from heat and steep until cool enough to use. Strain through cheesecloth, muslin or an old nylon stocking. Refrigerate no longer than one week. For an extra-strong eyewash, add Goldenseal powder. Use either warm or cold.
- To use, fill an eyecup or the palm of your clean hand with the liquid and pour the wash into the eye several times a day.
