"The Eyes are Windows of the Soul" ~ Shakespeare
"Iridology is a system of investigating the body and its functions with the information the body makes available through the iris. It is a living image, not merely of the body as we see it, but also of the process that creates it, what it has been, and what it is liable to become. It is as simple, elegant, specific and perfect as the body itself."
Iridology (also known as iridodiagnosis[1]) is an alternative medicine technique whose proponents believe that patterns, colors, and other characteristics of the iris can be examined to determine information about a patient's systemic health. Practitioners match their observations to iris charts, which divide the iris into zones that correspond to specific parts of the human body. Iridologists see the eyes as "windows" into the body's state of health.
Iridologists use the charts to distinguish between healthy systems and organs in the body and those that are overactive, inflamed, or distressed. Iridologists believe this information demonstrates a patient's susceptibility towards certain illnesses, reflects past medical problems, or predicts later health problems.
