Ingredients
- 1 medium-sized fresh onion (red or white)
- 1 teaspoon raw honey (optional)
- 1 cup warm water (for rinsing, optional)
Instructions
- Extract Onion Juice: Peel the onion and grate or blend it. Strain it through a clean cloth or fine sieve to get fresh onion juice.
- Use as Eye Drops (Caution!): Traditionally, some people apply 1 drop of fresh onion juice to each eye once daily for up to 5 days. However, this can cause intense burning and irritation. Always test a tiny amount and consult a doctor before putting anything in your eyes.
- Alternative — Eat It: The safer way is to consume raw onion daily. Add chopped onion to salads or eat a small amount raw — this may help overall eye health due to its antioxidants.
- Honey Option: Some traditional remedies mix 1–2 drops of onion juice with 1 teaspoon of raw honey and consume it daily. This is believed to boost general vision health.
- Rinse: If you try using onion juice near your eyes and feel irritation, rinse immediately with plenty of warm (not hot) water.
⚠️ Important Note:
There is no strong scientific evidence that onion juice directly improves vision. Eating onions can benefit eye health due to their vitamins and antioxidants, but applying onion juice in your eyes can be very irritating or even harmful. Always consult an eye specialist before trying home remedies for your eyes.
