Recipe Goldmine
Eyewash
1 tablespoon comfrey root
1 tablespoon fennel seeds
1 cup water
1 teaspoon goldenseal powder (optional)
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.
