Physical use

Eyebright is a mucus membrane tonic, meaning it improves the tone, vigour and function of membranes in the eyes, nose, lungs and throat. Its astringent action helps with healing red sore and inflamed membrane (runny nose or eye infections). Using this as an eye/mouth wash 3 times daily can clear up conjunctivitis and mouth ulcers within a few days. It also takes the sting and itchy eyes out of allergies and hayfever.
