Eyebright Euphrasia Drops
Eyebright Euphrasia Drops this pretty little plant takes its name from one of the three graces, Euphrosyne, although it was not until the Middle Ages that its beneficial effects were noted, coming to be known as Eyebright. Alfred Vogel knew it as a wild plant which enjoys living in grassland, drawing nutrients from its companion plants. Collect in late summer, the aerial parts are use to create this remedy.
Eyebright is a plant native to Britain and Europe, which grows to a height of 30cm and bears pale lilac flowers. It’s use as far back as the 17th Century in healthcare and was decribe by Milton in ‘Paradise Lost’ to clear Adam’s sight:
‘…but to nobler sights
Michael from Adams eyes the Filme remov’d
Which that false Fruit that promis’d clearer sight
Had bred; then purg’d with Euphrasie and Rue
The visual Nerve, for he had much to see;
And from the Well of Life three drops instill’d.’
