Case Study 1: Sarah, 62 — Rediscovering Comfort
Sarah had spent decades working on a computer. By her 60s, her eyes felt dry, itchy, and fatigued by mid-afternoon. After learning about onion’s natural properties, she began applying diluted onion compresses nightly and drinking the honey-onion mix each morning. Within two weeks, she noticed her eyes felt less gritty and more refreshed.
“It wasn’t magic — just consistency,” she shared. “I never realized something from my kitchen could help me so much.”
Case Study 2: Michael, 58 — A Natural Reset
Michael, a retired engineer, had long battled sensitivity to bright lights. Traditional drops offered little relief. On a friend’s recommendation, he tried a gentle mix of onion, cucumber, and aloe applied externally. “The cooling and tingling felt strange at first,” he admitted, “but after a few days, the tightness around my eyes disappeared.”
