HAZRAT IMAAM SHAAFI said that four things cause the eyesight to increase.

1)      To sit while facing QIBLA.

2)      To apply SURMA before sleeping.

3)      To see greenery.

4)      To keep clothes clean. 

a)      Take aniseed (SONF), sucrose sugar (MISRI), almond IRANI. Take equal amount of all of them and grind them together. Take one teaspoon daily without water. Using it for long time will be beneficial for eyesight.

b)      In the season of carrots, eat one carrot daily. It will be beneficial for memory and eyesight. If one wear glasses then this remedy will decrease the points of weak eyesight (Wash the carrot and eat without peeling because peeling may waste the vitamin C which is right under the peel).

c)      If one has watery eyes or cataract then dry the seed of black plum, grind it and eat small amount with water daily.  Take ground dried black plum seed and honey in equal amounts, mix them and apply this mixture in eyes daily. People usually say that when cataract starts appearing in eyes it does not stop but applying this mixture will prove this idea wrong.

d)     Do not make your eyes visible to the reflection of sun light reflected through mirror or any other shiny object. It weakens the eyesight.

a)      Take seeds of sweet and sour pomegranate. Crush them ad filter them with double or triple cloth. The water that you will get is called pomegranate water (AAB ANAAR In Urdu) Take 21 grams approx (1 ½ CHATAANK in URDU) of this water and add 14 grams approx (1 CHATAANK in Urdu) of honey in it. Cook this mixture in clay or stone utensil on low flame. During cooking keep on removing the froth from mixture and cook until it becomes thick. Preserve it in any bottle and apply it daily in eyes. It will prevent eye diseases and weakness of eyesight.

b)      Take fresh Indian gooseberries, squeeze out their juice, filter it and cook it in metal utensil until it becomes thick. Apply it daily in eyes.
