Scientific research into iridology
Well-controlled scientific evaluation of iridology has shown entirely negative results, with all rigorous double blind tests failing to find any statistical significance to its claims.In 2015 the Australian Government’s Department of Health published the results of a review of alternative therapies that sought to determine if any were suitable for being covered by health insurance. Iridology was one of 17 therapies evaluated for which no clear evidence of effectiveness was found.A German study from 1957 which took more than 4,000 iris photographs of more than 1,000 people concluded that iridology was not useful as a diagnostic tool.In 1979, Bernard Jensen, a leading American iridologist, and two other iridology proponents failed to establish the basis of their practice when they examined photographs of the eyes of 143 patients in an attempt to determine which ones had kidney impairments. Of the patients, forty-eight had been diagnosed with kidney disease, and the rest had normal kidney function. Based on their analysis of the patients’ irises, the three iridologists could not detect which patients had kidney disease and which did not. One iridologist, for example, decided that 88% of the normal patients had kidney disease, while another judged through his iris analysis that 74% of patients who needed artificial kidney treatment were normal.
Another study was published in the British Medical Journal which selected 39 patients who were due to have their gall bladder removed the following day, because of suspected gallstones. The study also selected a group of people who did not have diseased gall bladders to act as a control. A group of 5 iridologists examined a series of slides of both groups’ irises. The iridologists could not correctly identify which patients had gall bladder problems and which had healthy gall bladders. For example, one of the iridologists diagnosed 49% of the patients with gall stones as having them and 51% as not having them. The author concluded:, “…this study showed that iridology is not a useful diagnostic aid.”Edzard Ernst raised the question in 2000: “Does iridology work?This search strategy resulted in 77 publications on the subject of iridology. All of the uncontrolled studies and several of the unmasked experiments suggested that iridology was a valid diagnostic tool. The discussion that follows refers to the 4 controlled, masked evaluations of the diagnostic validity of iridology. In conclusion, few controlled studies with masked evaluation of diagnostic validity have been published. None have found any benefit from iridology.”
A 2005 study tested the usefulness of iridology in diagnosing common forms of cancer. An experienced iridology practitioner examined the eyes of 110 total subjects, of which 68 people had proven cancers of the breast, ovary, uterus, prostate, or colorectum, and 42 for whom there was no medical evidence of cancer. The practitioner, who was unaware of their gender or medical details, was asked to suggest a diagnosis for each person and his results were then compared with each subject’s known medical diagnosis. The study conclusion was that “Iridology was of no value in diagnosing the cancers investigated in this study.”

What is Comprehensive Iridology?
Comprehensive IridologyTM, was developed, and is accredited, by the International Iridology Practitioners Association. This is a combination of the American and European models of iridology, and it contains the latest up-to-date information on the theory and practice of iridology that is based on current extensive research.
Was ist Iridologie?
Die Iridologie (auch bekannt als Iridodiagnose oder Iridiagnose) ist eine Technik der Alternativmedizin, deren Befürworter behaupten, dass Muster, Farben und andere Merkmale der Iris untersucht werden können, um Informationen über den systemischen Gesundheitszustand eines Patienten zu ermitteln. Praktiker gleichen ihre Beobachtungen mit Irisdiagrammen ab, die die Iris in Zonen unterteilen, die bestimmten Teilen des menschlichen Körpers entsprechen. Iridologen sehen die Augen als “Fenster” in den Gesundheitszustand des Körpers.
Iridologen behaupten, sie könnten anhand der Diagramme zwischen gesunden Systemen und Organen im Körper und solchen unterscheiden, die überaktiv, entzündet oder belastet sind. Iridologen behaupten, dass diese Informationen die Anfälligkeit eines Patienten für bestimmte Krankheiten belegen, frühere medizinische Probleme widerspiegeln oder zukünftige Gesundheitsprobleme vorhersagen.
Im Gegensatz zur evidenzbasierten Medizin wird die Iridologie nicht durch hochwertige Forschungsstudien gestützt und gilt allgemein als Pseudowissenschaft. Die Merkmale der Iris gehören zu den stabilsten Merkmalen des menschlichen Körpers während des gesamten Lebens. [umstritten – diskutiert] Die Stabilität der Irisstrukturen ist die Grundlage der biometrischen Technologie, die die Iriserkennung zu Identifikationszwecken nutzt.
Im Jahr 1979 gelang es Bernard Jensen, einem führenden amerikanischen Iridologen, und zwei weiteren Befürwortern der Iridologie nicht, die Grundlagen ihrer Praxis zu ermitteln, als sie Fotos der Augen von 143 Patienten untersuchten, um herauszufinden, welche Patienten eine Nierenfunktionsstörung hatten. Bei 48 der Patienten wurde eine Nierenerkrankung diagnostiziert, bei den übrigen Patienten war die Nierenfunktion normal. Basierend auf ihrer Analyse der Patienten’ Mithilfe der Iris konnten die drei Iridologen nicht erkennen, welche Patienten eine Nierenerkrankung hatten und welche nicht.
Die Iris ist der grünlich-gelbe Bereich, der die transparente Pupille umgibt (schwarz dargestellt). Der weiße äußere Bereich ist die Sklera, deren zentraler transparenter Teil die Hornhaut ist. Iridologen verwenden im Allgemeinen Geräte wie eine Taschenlampe und eine Lupe, Kameras oder Spaltlampenmikroskope, um die Iris eines Patienten auf Gewebeveränderungen sowie Merkmale wie z wie spezifische Pigmentmuster und unregelmäßige Stromaarchitektur. Die Markierungen und Muster werden mit einer Iriskarte verglichen, die Zonen der Iris mit Körperteilen korreliert. Typische Diagramme unterteilen die Iris in etwa 80–90 Zonen. Beispielsweise befindet sich die der Niere entsprechende Zone im unteren Teil der Iris, kurz vor 6 Uhr. Es gibt geringfügige Abweichungen zwischen den Diagrammen’ Assoziationen zwischen Körperteilen und Bereichen der Iris.
Laut Iridologen spiegeln Details in der Iris Veränderungen im Gewebe der entsprechenden Körperorgane wider. Ein prominenter Praktiker, Bernard Jensen, beschrieb es so: “Nervenfasern in der Iris reagieren auf Veränderungen im Körpergewebe, indem sie eine Reflexphysiologie zeigen, die bestimmten Gewebeveränderungen und -orten entspricht.” Dies würde bedeuten, dass ein körperlicher Zustand zu einer spürbaren Veränderung des Aussehens der Iris führt. Dies wurde jedoch durch viele Studien widerlegt. (Siehe Abschnitt „Wissenschaftliche Forschung“.) Beispielsweise können akute entzündliche, chronisch entzündliche und katarrhalische Anzeichen auf eine Beteiligung, Erhaltung bzw. Heilung entsprechender entfernter Gewebe hinweisen. Weitere Merkmale, nach denen Iridologen suchen, sind Kontraktionsringe und Klumpenzellen, die auf verschiedene andere Gesundheitszustände hinweisen können.

Wie mache ich ein Iridologie-Foto?
Ich würde gerne mit einem Iridologen zusammenarbeiten, nicht in meiner Gegend. Wie bekomme ich Bilder von meinen Augen? Antwort). Senden Sie Ihre Fotos per E -Mail. Wenn Sie die Bilder selbst aufnehmen, verwenden Sie eine Kamera oder ein Kamera-Telefon und eine Taschenlampe, um 10 Nahaufnahmen von jedem Auge zu machen. Wie mache ich das? Scheinen Sie einfach die Taschenlampe am äußeren Augenwinkel und lassen Sie jemanden die Fotos für Sie in der Nähe aufnehmen. Die Taschenlampe beleuchtet das Auge. Verwenden Sie Ihren Daumen- und Zeigefinger, um Ihr oberes und unteres Augenlid zu heben, bis das gesamte Auge sichtbar ist (der obere und untere Teil Ihres Auges muss sichtbar sein). Wenn das nicht funktioniert, öffnen Sie Ihr Auge so weit, wo der Fotograf den oberen und unteren Teil Ihres Auges sehen kann. Schauen Sie dann direkt in das Auge der Kamera und leuchten Sie eine Taschenlampe oder stecken Sie es direkt an jedem Augenwinkel (jeweils ein Auge). Dadurch wird Ihre Irisfasern beleuchtet, damit die Kamera die Irisfasern aufnehmen kann. Alles ist ein Foto Ihrer Iris (Auge) und nicht Ihres gesamten Gesichts.
