The rigorous application of scientific and objective methodology to the theoretical beliefs and more professional standards of practice are necessary to elevate the status of iris analysis techniques to a modern position. Iridology is benefiting from the development of technology. At Miles Research we have been developing professional instrumentation and clinical software for years, and are also setting up groupware, …
Iris analysis will eventually become an accepted and respected field of inquiry and will also see widespread clinical application in mainstream health care. This will be accelerated by the use of the iris for identification purposes. Baseline studies of individual differences in iris color (population variations) and longitudinal studies of color change, however are a prerequisite to the testing and …
Iridology has been used in a mostly non-technical way, and often by amateurs or those without rigorous training in health-care. As a result, orthodox medicine has not seen the redeeming value in a field cluttered with erroneous and oversimplified belief. Lack of scientific and professional conduct among some iridologists has contributed to the perception of Iridology as little more than …
In addition to the above-mentioned problems with professionalism, the other hurdle for the medical approach is the concept of ‘Reflex’ which is the phenomenon of information referral via autonomic nervous system, ch’i meridians and other more subtle energy pathways throughout the body. Orthodox medicine does not recognize phenomena that is too subtle to detect with instrumentation, much less the possibility …
“The proof is in the pudding” or “if the shoe fits, wear it,” so to speak, but the burden of proof by presentation of evidence to support the effectiveness, usefulness, and importance of Iridology is on the iridologist. Rigorous research protocol is necessary to be taken seriously as a field that merits scientific inquiry. The status of the field of …
Studies are needed in natural history of iris color change throughout life, population studies in all areas of the world to develop demographic and epidemiologic profiles of color and texture distribution, examining clinical correlates from empirical data, establishment of protocols and standards in both methodology and technology, and recruitment of biomedical experts to participate in research by providing necessary technical …
