I have been using DMSO for over a year topically undiluted for joints and scar tissue. I am an amateur golfer (age 71) and I began noticing how I could see everyone’s drives, even in bright sun and wet fairways. Then I began reading things (my phone, iPad, books) without reading glasses. I was having a WTH moment until I found the AMD article on DMSO and ophthalmology. Damn. I am thrilled! I had never used it even near my eyes.

Trishburn's avatar

Do you mind sharing how you applied to joints/skin?? With your bare hands? What is your protocol??

Jeff Adzima's avatar

I apply a solution to my joints, too. Specifically started using on my thumb as a had/have trigger thumb and was contemplating surgery. I purchase from a company in Canada named Doctors choice. They sell out quickly.

Phishhed44's avatar

I get mine from The DMSO Store.

Miss Rodeo's avatar

Bare CLEAN hands on bare CLEAN skin.

Lee Schulte's avatar

Suggestions on what to clean hands and skin with? Fragrance free soaps, wipe with alcohol first, etc????

Miss Rodeo's avatar

I don’t go to any lengths to assure cleanliness. Soap and a good rinse. Alcohol might not be a bad idea, but I am over 2 years into use and have nothing bad to report. I use it 100% strength, but I have a lot of melanin and am not overly sensitive.

Pablo's avatar

There's evidence that less than a 100% solution often gets significantly better results. In other words, you could do better. Look into it!

Miss Rodeo's avatar

I don’t use it in my eyes. I suppose my eyesight benefit was systemic.

Mila's avatar

Use gel of 70% DMSO with 30% aloe Vera. Bare clean hands, on bare clean skin. You can even add castor oil on the top. It helps with inflammation reduction.

Kathleen Boyle's avatar

Yes I’ve had success it’s that protocol as well. 70/30 DMSO to aloe Vera gel. My thumb and knuckle joints were really aching - quite suddenly - and after one generous application pain was gone and has not returned. Felt warm on application

ROBERT WALL's avatar

I put 70% DMSO solution (30%distilled water) on my wife’s leg which becomes numb after a knee transplant 2years ago and this prevents her disdain for that numbness feeling. I put it on with organic cotton balls. If you have a burn on your finger you can hold your finger in DMSO for a number of minutes with no problem. I tried using a cosmetic brush but that changed the color of theDMSO solution to a slight black, as the DMSO was dissolving the cosmetic brush. I have heard that some natural fiber brushes can be used but you should to put the brush in DMSO overnight.

Steve Clough's avatar

Three oz on bottle. Order from Amazon.

R.K. Ssshhh's avatar

Hi, Trish, idk if they've gotten back to you, but I might be able to help, lmk 😉

R.niemi's avatar

Only buy it in glass bottles. I’ve bought it in health food stores in the USA. Should be able to find it readily available there. Supposedly it’s extremely, or impossible to find in Canada because of its healing ability. “Big Pharma”, is very much the cause of that. Pharma has lusiferian connections to the Rockefellers. I could go on and on, but enough said for now.

ROBERT WALL's avatar

I bought a gallon on Amazon for about $150 in glass jug; it was 99.99 pure DMSO. I put it on both of my Hips for severe bursitis alternating with A DMSO CREAM that contained aloe vera, oil of magnesium, vitamin E, Amica, MSM -sold under the Trade name of Dr Robaina, for Joint and Muscle, for about $26. I picked up a heavy suit case and it caused me so much shoulder pain I was pacing the floor. Then I put the DMSO cream all over my shoulder and in 20 minutes my pain was gone. It came back about 20 minutes later and I put a second coating and in 20 more minutes the pain was gone and did not return. Ivhave had steroid shots every six month in both shoulders and sometimes the pain relief takes a day or two. Also I have painful bursitis in both hips and the heavy suitcase also irritated my right hip and I put the same cream on that hip and went sleep and had no pain the next morning. I am 91 years old and in good health with the exceptions described above.;when the bursitis pain returns I do some stretching and then more DMSO CREAM. I am a former ICBM solid propellant rocket scientist (Minuteman and Trident 2and my brain is still working great. I am a former patient of Dr Pierre Kory.

Robert Wall

Evonne S.'s avatar

I’d be interested in the DMSO cream. Brand and where to buy ? TY

ROBERT WALL's avatar

Lookup DMSO CREAM on Amazon, find the small WHITE circular container about 3 inches high, sold under the trade name of DR.ROBAINA. SALES PRICE about $26.00. It has t green circles each of which lists an ingredient in the product including Arnica, MSM, Magnesium ,Aloe Vera, and Vitamin E.

Suggest you put in on your skin using your fingers rub it in, cover an area larger than the pain area, 4 to 5 days, then omit for 2 days to let skin recover.

Suggest you order a green container about 4 inches in diameter and 3 inches high of pure Aloe Vera Gel sold under name of ALODERMA. Put a tablespoon of this over the skin area that you first applied the DMSO and rub the Aloe Vera in well. This prevents my skin from itching after I apply the DMSOCream

Suggest you wash your hands with soap and water immediately after applying DMSO cream being careful not to rub your eyes first.

There are DMSO APPLICATIONS USING 1% to75 % to 100% pure DMSO

Liquid which requires you to read a good quality DMSO recipe book, such as the one written by Amanda Vollmer. The best DMSO book is the one written by Dr Amelia White, in my,opinion. She has over 50 detailed DMSO, recipes ,using many essential oils, Vitamin E, Aloe Vera and many other ingredients for topical and oral applications.She removed her book from Amazon because it appeared to me that many others copied her title, which was THE COMPLETE DMSO HEALING BIBLE.

There's nothing wrong with DMSO in plastic bottles as long as it's the type of plastic that doesn't react with DMSO. In fact, most manufacturers ship it in a plastic bottle so chances are that your DMSO was previously in a plastic bottle even if you received it in a glass bottle from the reseller. It's also likely that the reseller used the correct type of plastic; otherwise, the bottles would likely arrive leaked, deformed, or melted, making the error immediately apparent to the customer. Whew! Just imagine the lawsuits!

Miss Rodeo's avatar

Thanks for the information. I have always wondered how it could be sold in plastic.

R.niemi's avatar

Easy, yes: but expensive that way, and mainly for one purpose. There are many other uses for DMSO. The best way, and least expensive for Canadians is what I suggested. Supposedly it’s illegal to cross the border with it unless it’s to be used for horses (same as ivermectin). Of course this is satanic. You should be able to realize how much we are lied to. I’ve been trying to expose the biggest lie (scam) that everyone refuses to listen to. It’s a different subject, but far more important because it’s totally according to God’s Word. The strange thing is (but not strange when you connect the dots) that I was kicked out of church for trying to speak the Truth using His Word. I never argued with a loud voice. I simply stepped quietly out of the way. Since then God has opened my eyes, and taught me many amazing things out of His Word, and given me so much grace to do His Will. To God be the Glory. A worm cannot boast, a worm wearing filthy rags cannot be proud. I am a worm.

Why did you state “the AMD article on DMSO and ophthalmology.” without stating the full name of the article?

Miss Rodeo's avatar

I didn’t think it necessary.

Val's avatar

I ran “the AMD article on DMSO and ophthalmology.” through ChatGPT so that it would perform a full internet search, and it came back with nothing. That’s means you either made it up, or grossly misquoted. But I held back from criticizing your post, and just pointed out the lack of clarity, and still you didn’t produce anything useful. Seems to be a recurring theme with you, worthless posts.

don's avatar

Thank you Scampster for the heads up on Alter Ai, I do lots of Ai complex questions with the better known Ai's, yep you do have to factor in their Bias, and agree - complete BS with their answer to your suggested question. So I just tried Alter Ai for the fist time, way better - less biased answers thats for sure. Here is what I asked just to see what it is like. My question to alter ai, - " Now that time has passed, what is your opinion of the covid 19 vaccines, were they safe and effective as we were told, and since time has passed, have they harmed, disabled or killed many people.? ". I suggest people try this or similar question and test this out, then try out other Ai. Alter Ai was honest, as in we were told lies based in politics, economics, not science, adverse numbers are high, all cause mortality high etc. Then I added the same wording question copied into one of the Ai's I use a lot, completely different, downplayed adverse events as very rare, and certainly safe and effective etc. So the Alter Ai reads be cautious, we were lied to for political and economic gain, the better known Ai kind of suggests rolling up your sleeve may be a good idea. I was already very aware of the bias in the Ai's I have been using, but now I will be using Alter Ai as a Priority over the others. Thank you Scampster for the heads up, appreciate the info on Alter.

It's truly frightening that you believe and trust Chatgpt so thoroughly. Though it seems to be a virtual panacea, I don't think DMSO can cure that.

Christie Syftestad's avatar

AMD had written a series of articles on DMSO and one of them addresses it’s usefulness for tinnitus. I’d go to AMD’s index of articles and start researching there. My entire family has used it with powerful results. But one MUST do your own research!

Rebecca Meyer's avatar

that is so awesome! can I ask where you get good dmso? what brand recommendations?

ROBERT WALL's avatar

Amazon sell small glass bottles of 99.99 % DMSO AND I bought a one gallon glass bottle of 99.99% DMSO for about $150.00. This was after I bought 3 small bottles for about $53.00 total and decided it was going to be cheaper to buy a full gallon;store it at room temperature in a dark closet and buy a small stainless steel funnel from Amazon or Walmart to pour into small bottles, Make sure the small bottles have a compatible lid.

Robert Wall

MarshaGail's avatar

U should not use any metal with dmso.

Kim Linebarger's avatar

How do you know what a compatible lid is?

ROBERT WALL's avatar

one that will not react with the DMSO solution.Small bottles of DMSO have a small gasket just below the lid which protects the plastic lid from the DMSO LIQUID AND VAPOR. I read in an article that I cant remember the name of regarding a type of plastic that DMSO will not react with and maybe AI can answer that question

ROBERT WALL's avatar

A compatible lid for a bottle of DMSO according to a google search is a lid made out of either low density polypropylene or high density propylene.

Maureen's avatar

Is it true if you had cataract surgery you can’t use DMSO near the eyes. I have the begining of Macular Degeneration?

Miss Rodeo's avatar

It is my understanding that DMSO could damage the lenses implanted after cataract surgery.

Jay C.'s avatar

I was wondering the same thing.

I'm just finishing the highly recommended Audible book by Amandha Dawn Vollmer - 'Healing With DMSO'.

In the latter part of the book, she mentions that DMSO could damage and subsequently end up permanently blurring the lenses that are inserted/implanted.

That's not surprising to me, considering how soft and pliable they are, and just what delicate material(s) they are most likely made of.

I had both eyes done with cataract surgery and implants just a few years ago. But being new to 'all things DMSO', I don't want to risk trying it for, or in my eyes.

(I hope this helps.)

J.

Maureen's avatar

Thank you, is there anything else that can help prevent maculardegeneration?

Charla Star's avatar

Extract of Bilberry has been used in Europe for many years even by doctors. It can apparently STOP the advancement of macular degeneration but cannot repair damage already done.

Maureen's avatar

Thank you so much. I will try it.

NP or Bust's avatar

I am reading about great success with AMD using chlorine dioxide solution (CDS). About to start a regimen for my cousin who has AMD and intraocular lenses after cataract removal. I'm super bummed we cannot use the DMSO in his eyes! Ugh. It would be beneficial to the absorption of the CDS. Also planning to add castor oil to his eye drops. I'll chime back in here in a couple of months to report on results.

George's avatar

one day md .... I use DMSO for my eyes..an Elderly peer who had Cataract surgery (lens replacement) can He use this safely at a 15% Solution

DrDi's avatar

The question still is there… is the replacement lens at risk from being dissolved (for lack of Better word) or damaged.

Jo Novak's avatar

From Oct 25, 2025 AMD, DMSO and the Eyes

"Finally, one of the most common questions I receive is whether DMSO can be used on the eyes with artificial interocular lenses (IOLs). Presently, I am relatively certain DMSO eye drops of low concentrations are not an issue as:

•Dilute DMSO almost never leaches materials, and drops of lower concentrations applied to the eyes rapidly dilute as they slowly enter the eyes through the cornea.

•The most common (but not all) types of IOLs are fairly resistant to DMSO.

•The American Academy of Ophthalmology has said there is no evidence of DMSO harming IOLs (although it’s not clear if this refers to DMSO taken in other parts of the body or applied directly to the eyes)

•German ophthalmologists have reported no issues with low dose DMSO eye drops and IOLs.

•No one in the DMSO community has reported issues either, and instead have found that DMSO frequently is quite helpful for healing complications of eye surgeries.

However, I do not know if high dose DMSO eye drops can be used with IOLs as different lens materials have different sensitivities to DMSO, in many cases that information is not available (e.g., German ophthalmologists who tried to find out what plasticizers are in the lens and their DMSO solubility have not been able to get the information they needed from manufacturers).

Likewise, while I have not been able to find a case where this actually happened, my primary concern is that while it’s highly unlikely DMSO will ever reach the strength needed to dissolve IOLs, a small amount of interaction with DMSO (from high concentration eye drops) could theoretically distort lens enough that it needs to be replaced.

In short, every source I’ve looked at advises only using low dose DMSO if you have IOLs."

DrDi's avatar

Perfect. Thank you for taking time to share.

keraboo miller's avatar

Good day did you try it

Dr. Amandha Dawn Vollmer's avatar

I only had one case of a man who had blurring of the lens who used a higher dose of 50%. He was a Mennonite and unfortunately I was unable to get a follow-up.

Carmen Cornils's avatar

I was worried about DMSO drops in my eyes because I've had cataract surgery, so I asked my opthomologist about it, telling her that DMSO is a strong solvent, and she said that the way the eye is structured, that the drops can't get to the lens. Do you think she's right?

Carla's avatar

How low is low dose? Does that mean 10% or 15%? Thank you!

Jo Novak's avatar

Carla,

The only information I have is what is in the article. Each person has to research & decide for themselves.

Barbara Johnston's avatar

Carmen, eagerly awaiting the answer to your question.

Patricia Morrish's avatar

Dont do direct eye application. Risk of infection is not worth it. No one is going to say its safe for your lens cause no one knows.

Beckett's avatar

I tried DMSO for floaters but the smell on my breathe and skin was repulsive to my family members and it lasted a good 4 days on my breathe. Is there any way to counteract that or does it get less with time? I teach children and I will hear about it if I am stinky

Steve Clough's avatar

Take bromelain supplements too. Mystidow brand, 1/day with food. I did some research and a lot of people recommended it for floaters. I had a bad spider web type floater in my left eye. My optometrist laughed at me when I said that I wanted to try something like that. Well it’s completely gone, and I think I have the last laugh.

Charla Star's avatar

If you take a medication that warns DO NOT TAKE WITH GRAPEFRUIT, do not take bromelain. Bromelain can cause overdose of the medication because it increases potency when both are going through the same liver pathway CYP3A4

Beckett's avatar

Yes you do!! Thank you for the info! I sure will try it and see if works on mine too. Isn’t it odd that doctors say there is no fix and to move with it, then it turns out there is? 😄

Lee Schulte's avatar

Would you mind sharing the solution percentages you used? dmso, distilled water, other etc??

jeannin's avatar

Maybe you could try to use MSM (methylsulfonylmethane). Similar to DMSO, but can only be used in drinking water (for what I know...). I have been using it for many years...

Eddy's avatar

How do you take it, a couple of drops in water?

Chris......'s avatar

I read that Cranberry juice nullifies the smell in Amandha Vollermer's book called "Healing with DMSO". Also someone in a DMSO fb page said fresh parsley is good for this.

Dr. Amandha Dawn Vollmer's avatar

It's polyphenols that help the most and pomegranate is one of the best juices for that use. You can also add anything that will oxygenate like mms, or hydrogen peroxide, even ozone will decrease the overall body odour. 🌹

NP or Bust's avatar

Since chlorine dioxide solution is an oxidizer, can I assume it will help reduce the odor?

Beckett's avatar

Thank you very much! We will be getting low odor DMSO - which I ordered but just got regular- and will give parsley and cranberry juice a try

The Masculine Institute's avatar

Beckett, this may help. I've used this DMSO orally and had no "garlic effect". Not sure if that would change if using it for the eyes.

Vivian's avatar

Try adding unfiltered, nonpasterized honey in the DMSO for less smell. Doesn’t eliminate the smell completely but lessens it.

Beckett's avatar

Thank you for the tip! I’ll try it

keraboo miller's avatar

Did you have the surgery and are trying to remove the floaters

Beckett's avatar

No surgery- just a large floater that impairs vision

Narda Narvaez's avatar

Deep tissue detox helps, intestinal cleansing and liver flushes to decrease the toxic load that DMSO mobilizes. I find people who are detoxed no longer smell when using DMSO

Beckett's avatar

Good to know! Thank you

Lux's avatar

Chlorophyl seems to deodorize the odor

Beckett's avatar

Thank you very much!

Fran's avatar

No, no no!!!’ do not use DMSO if you had lens implants like cataract surgery DMSO unless it’s a special plastic bottle needs to be put in Glass, the DMSO absorbs particles etc. The plastic does not hold up to DMSO.

chris heyman's avatar

I few plastics do hold up per PHD’s in chemistry. Like the ones used by Jacob’s labs and the DMSO store.

Barbara Johnston's avatar

So the key is finding out the composition of my fake lenses. I’m so sorry I let them take out my God-given lenses. I didn’t know that there are ways to clear your lenses until after the surgery. I try to warn others now.

Lisa Nash's avatar

Does anyone know how to mix the DMSO for eyes? I would like to know the ratio!

Kim Linebarger's avatar

Amandha Vollmer has a recipe in her book and describes how to make it for safe application

CBG's avatar

It’s in the article but I’m entirely unsure how to make STERILE drops ? Purity does not convey anything about sterility which is needed for eye drops without preservative . Are people mixing it freshly each day to keep bacterial contamination low and doing at home ? It should ideally be done under neg pressure hood, but I can’t find a compounding pharmacy that will do it. The one I use for opthalmic preps without preservatives uses neg pressure hood and 22 micron filter which can’t be used to sterilize dmso .

don's avatar

Initially I was getting the compounded sterile eye drops made up in the ratio suggested by Dr Robert Rowen some decades ago - as in DMSO, Vitamin C and GSH, but this is very expensive month after month from a compounding pharmacy. Instead - For well over 10 years I have been mixing roughly 40 % 99.99% pharma grade DMSO, to 60% distilled water for eye drops. No sterile measures taken - other than boiling my 30 ml dropper bottle and dropper every now and then, like once a year. I could get DMSO compatible .22 micron syringe filters and filter it but never bothered. If adding anything else then I would filter. Rare, but if ever I get an eye infection, colloidal silver fixes it in a matter of hours - CS sprayed or dropped into eyes. Not medical advice, just what I have found helpful.

Thank you so much Don!!!

I’ve been asking this question since I had (and deeply regret) cataract surgery 2years ago. I’ve never gotten any feedback about this until now. Thank you to all who have contributed. I also have scarring from a previous retinal tear fix. Probably shouldn’t have had cataract surgery at all, but doctors don’t warn you. I’m still afraid to try the DMSO, but it’s great to hear that others have done so safely.

Ah, yes, an industrial solvent, derived from the treatment of wood pulp with sodium hydroxide and sulfide, is the “natural” remedy we so dearly need in our culture. Let’s bring back nightshade, and black salve, and cinnabar while we’re at it, too. Certainly these ancient natural cultures with their paltry 40 year lifespans got something right.

Charla Star's avatar

My friend years ago had a very aggressive cancer on his head. MDs insisted he get surgery NOW or he would die. His friend who supplied black and red salves to Mexican clinics provided some for him.

A friend applied the salves daily in proper sequence and for a proper amount of time. The salves made him temporarily so weak he could hardly function, but the cancer went away and didn’t return in the 20 more years he lived until he died at 95.

Maxwell's avatar

So rather than undergo a minor excision of what could only have been a surface carcinoma, performed in a controlled environment with proper wound care, your friend dumped what is essentially lye on their cancer and completely necrotized a section of his skin and the surrounding area, and this was ON THEIR HEAD, the most dangerous place to have a lesion? Brilliant.

Charla Star's avatar

Better than dying from the AGGRESSIVE CRANIAL CANCER the doctor was describing. Don’t forget, he lived another 20 years and was still fully healthy physically and mentally. He hiked at least 2 miles a day up to a few weeks before his death at 95 and still took occasional plumbing jobs into his 90’s.

That in contrast to many of my friends, 8-10 of whom have died in the last 2 years, who have gone the chemo and radiation route and died horrible deaths. Not a single friend who had gone the standard medical treatment for cancer route has survived.

DMSO is a natural chemical. Because it can be obtained from cooked wood (a natural substance) does not make it bad to consume.

Maxwell's avatar

Hydrogen cyanide is natural, too. So is botulinum toxin.

Sharon Peterson's avatar

And there are remedies, both pharma and homeopathic, that are made from those substances.

Maxwell's avatar

Correct, but the operative word is “made from”.

Sharon Peterson's avatar

DMSO has been used in the equine world, both topically and systemically (with FDA approval btw) for decades with great success. (It would be interesting to know whether more horses or their caretakers have benefitted from the DMSO.) However, it's readily available, in abundant supply and it's cheap and non-patentable. No big killing to be made, therefore, no FDA approval for human use (except for interstitial cystitis). Follow the money. Personally, I prefer gentler approaches to healthcare like homeopathy. Sometimes, though, "bigger guns" are necessary but should be used with great care & knowledge.

Fun fact - DMSO is used to preserve organs for transplant.

Charla Star's avatar

Yet a derivative of botulism, Botox, is used by women worldwide to make their lips and butts bigger. I would never use it.

Spirits of gum turpentine is another medicine derived by distillation from resin of pine trees. It is experiencing a revival in use.

It assisted me recently in preventing a harsh bronchial condition from going deeper into my lungs. Just putting some drops on a cotton ball and inhaling through my mouth several times a day stopped progression deeper into my lungs and stopped the spasmodic coughing that was keeping me awake all night.

I can’t use antibiotics as I became allergic to several kinds many years ago and have been warned by a couple of MDs to reserve use of the one I can take for serious life threatening illnesses as, if I become allergic to it, I have no backup.

Nightshade in its DATURA/ BELLADONNA homeopathic form is excellent for dropping very high fevers (103-104 F in adults) to a very manageable 101 F within 15-20 minutes.

Maxwell's avatar

If it’s real homeopathy there’s literally not a single molecule of “nightshade” or its active alkaloids (hyoscamine chief among them) in that solution.

What gets lost is that if it worked, big pharma would be making the formulation you're trying to create. Why would they overlook a profit source? That famous cancer cure the conspiracy theorists believe exists is categorically similar. It would have to he worth a few trillion dollars....

Super's avatar

They can't make money if they can't patent it.

James North's avatar

Pharmaceutics is the answer for that. Once you put it into a carrier that gets it to the target site, you have a patentable medication. There's a reason why science debunks science-related conspiracy theories.

Phxrising8's avatar

No they wouldn’t. They already have treatments for all of these maladies. Treatments, that may or may not work, that make them billions of dollars.

James North's avatar

Very short sighted. You really think they wouldn't capitalize on a new treatment? If so, you're a conspiracy theorist unable to see past that bias.

This conspiracy theorist worked for the evil big pharma for 3 decades. I know of what I speak. IYKYK.

It seems we have some trolls in the chat. Best to ignore people like James & Maxwell.

Those who use DMSO in it’s many forms know it works. Those who are threatened by it (and those who fell for the covid scam), will talk shit. There’s no live and let live or liberty or even respect for others with these people.

If you want to follow allopathic, MD-directed medicine, go ahead. Get all the vaccines. Take all the OTC, Rx, radiation and pharma you want. There’s plenty. Leave the rest of us who strive for better ALONE.

Swinking's avatar

Because it's not patentable and maybe there is no way to make a similar product which could be patentable which retains the same properties. Also big pharma are not interested in treatments that work only those that slightly mask symptoms.

Patricia Morrish's avatar

They would need FDA approval and much of the reporting is only anecdotal.

James North's avatar

Yes. I’ve been seeing some odd things happening, but a new pharmaceutical entity would require FDA approval.

Stuart Hutt's avatar

Yes I have been using Dr Andreas Kalcker protocol based on his book Forbidden Health with saline, DMSO and sterile chlorine dioxide.

R Smith's avatar

Stuart, I have a question for you.

I have several dilutions of DMSO + boiled water in amber bottles. I'd like to add a sterile saline solution like you used - e.g., Physicians Care Eyewash - to an empty glass bottle, and then add a few drops of 25, 50, or 70 percent DMSO solution, to make my own sterile eyewash + DMSO solution.

QUESTION: Have you found that using *plastic-bottled* saline solution is okay, when mixed with DMSO? I'm just concerned that the saline solution - though sterile - will be contaminated by the plastic from the bottle it comes in. And then, when I pour it into the glass bottle, and add the DMSO, the plastic "contamination" will be magnified more by the DMSO. What's your experience?

Stuart Hutt's avatar

I would not put DMSO in a plastic bottle. As per Dr Andreas Kalcker website on CDS protocols (andreaskalcker.com) protocol O. CDS is sterile clo2 using a mason jar to gas off the clo2 into distilled water. You can order his book from his website (Forbidden Health):

Protocol O is a procedure that involves preparing eye drops for ophthalmic (eye) and otolaryngological (ear) use with CDS (chlorine dioxide solution). This protocol is useful for treating various eye conditions and sinusitis. It can be applied to both the eyes and nose, especially in cases of flu or sinusitis.

Instructions for Preparing the Eye Drops:

50 ml of physiological saline (NaCl 0.9%).

0.5 ml of CDS (Chlorine Dioxide).

Optionally, 0.3 ml of DMSO (70%).

Instructions: In a small glass bottle with a polyethylene dropper or an ophthalmic dropper (made of HDPE, a plastic harder than rubber), mix 50 ml of physiological saline solution, 0.5 ml of CDS, and optionally 0.3 ml of DMSO (70%).  Ensure the ingredients are thoroughly mixed in the bottle.

Application Instructions: For eyes and nose:

In case of eye conditions or sinusitis, apply a few drops to the affected eye or nose every two hours.

Precautions: If the patient uses intraocular lenses, it is preferable not to use DMSO in the eye drops.

The solution should be stored in a cool, dark place. Its effectiveness lasts approximately three days. After this time, the solution will rapidly lose effectiveness and become clear. It is recommended to prepare a fresh solution once it has become clear.

There is no risk of infection because CDS acts as a disinfectant. It only loses effectiveness over time.

Protocol O is an effective and safe option for treating ophthalmological and otolaryngological conditions. Be sure to follow the preparation and application instructions, as well as the recommended precautions.

What saline solution do you use please

Stuart Hutt's avatar

I use Physicians Care Eyewash 98.3% Purified Water, Ophthalmic Solution Eyewash. (Amazon). I am sure there are others.

Rebecca Meyer's avatar

I'm just starting to read his book, so grateful to have found it for purchase!

Miss Rodeo's avatar

I use Dr. Moran’s off Amazon, but any pharmaceutical grade in a dark glass bottle will do. If you use a dropper which is easier to apply, make sure the dropper and bottle are glass.

Dr. Amandha Dawn Vollmer's avatar

Thank you for sharing my book! For the purest DMSO on the earth, I carry that at DMSO.store. I create multitudes of DMSO blends as well as eye drops with or without vitamin C and also DMSO with colloidal silver.

I teach about DMSO and have for nearly a decade. I also have an upcoming teaching tomorrow: ocular anatomy and DMSO protocols for eye diseases masterclass. A few weeks ago I taught a free DMSO for Eye Health webinar that you can find on the same website.

I signed up for that class but never saw it! I have a hard time getting info from Amanda. Maybe because she is in Canada!

Do you have experience of glaucoma cases getting better?

Ellen Whitworth's avatar

Now this I need. I use the DMSO on my shoulders and any other sore part. Makes a big difference.

This is a well presented & logical presentation of the known facts about DMSO & eye health .. I am 79 & have advanced MD & have been receiving injections in both eyes for 15 months (for wet MD) .. based on my knowledge this is a therapy that will end with declining efficacy of the injections (Eylea 8 mg) & continued loss of vision .. I've been told the injections actually accelerate dry MD .. I've been using 30-40% DMSO drops 2x/daily .. one drop each eye .. for 4 months .. it is too early to claim results, but the drops give me hope of improved metabolism in the macula & may stop the progression .. I understand the risks & accept same .. I believe what I'm doing is sensible and gives me hope for a better outcome .. will try to update this comment

Pauline's avatar

Can I ask a dumb blond question so if I have 99.9 DMSO and mix 1 drop with 2 drops of saline is that the correct ratio?

ROBERT WALL's avatar

I read a male persons comment that he had been drinking a diluted DMSO solution and when he diluted with pomegranate juice his family, whichnoticed a strong garlic odor with other fruit juices, no longer complained about his garlic breath

Let me tell you my journey, hoping it will encourage you to do more research to use a natural holistic approach for all your health needs.

I learned about DMSO and castor oil mix solution from a holistic ophthalmologist for my wet AMD treatment, I decided to start eye drops (30/70 mix and hyaluronic acid solution). I was definitely apprehensive first, but let me tell you…. My vision improved from 20/200 to 20/25 within 3 months of starting !!!!!

Of course, I have been using it with specific supplements to support microcirculation, improve blood sugar control and cholesterol, mitochondrial function and nerve cells/photoreceptors regeneration ( Lutein, Zeaxanthin, omega 3, Berberine, vitD and Vit K, TUDKA, senolytic activators, Nattokinase and magnesium…. High polyphenol olive oil, Creatine, glycine, taurine powders in my coffee and green tea, using allulose as a sweetener) combined with low carbs/high protein and high fat diet, walking 8-10k steps a day, and using red light/infrared therapy glasses everyday (Kyler Spectral Science)

Going to see my traditional ophthalmologist tomorrow to see and confirm that I have made even better progress for last 1.5 months. She was/is completely oblivious to my natural treatment protocol, but I know I can see now much better ( eye scans and visual acuity tests confirm that)

I feel very optimistic about my eyes and overall health now!!!

Please don’t let them to discourage you by telling that nothin can be done to restore your vision, offering only the eye injections drugs for the rest of your life just “to keep your eyesight from getting worse and going completely blind….??!??” That was their prognosis given to me. I completely reject that perspective!

More power to your innate intelligence, you are in charge of your life and your health!!!! They are (medical mafia) there to keep you small and in fear, profiting from you, offering to you drugs to enrich themselves and their pharma drug cartel!! No one wants you healthy, they will lose customer for life.

Stay strong! My best regards to you!

How much hyaluronic acid? Is it 70% dmso with 30% demineralized water plus hyaluronic acid? And where do you buy the hyaluronic acid?

This is an interesting synthesis, and I appreciate that you’re at least attempting to anchor the discussion in mechanisms and older ophthalmic literature; there is a peer-reviewed 2021 review that discusses DMSO as a potential therapeutic/drug vehicle in eye disease. 

That said, from a clinician / safety-first lens, there are a few non-negotiables that need to be stated very plainly for readers:

1. “Promising/biologically plausible” is not the same as “clinically proven,” especially for cataracts, macular degeneration, glaucoma, and floaters, conditions where we’d want modern, controlled human trials with standardized formulations and validated endpoints.

2. Mainstream ophthalmology guidance is explicitly skeptical. The American Academy of Ophthalmology has addressed DMSO and states there’s no evidence (and “no reason to suspect”) it helps these eye conditions, while noting DMSO’s FDA-approved use is for bladder inflammation, not ophthalmology. 

3. Sterility is a big deal. Eye drops that are compounded, mixed at home, or sourced outside regulated sterile ophthalmic manufacturing carry real risk of vision-threatening infection. The FDA has issued multiple warnings/letters in recent years about contaminated or illegally marketed eye products and the potential for serious harm. 

4. DMSO is a penetration enhancer. That’s part of the appeal, but it also means impurities/contaminants (or co-applied substances) can be carried across tissues more readily, which raises the bar for formulation quality and oversight.

If you want this to land as “rigorous, not just intriguing,” I’d love to see you explicitly separate:

1. what’s supported by controlled human data,

2. what’s animal/in vitro, and

3. what’s anecdote and then specify a safety framework (sterile sourcing, contraindications, red-flag symptoms, and a clear “do not delay evidence-based ophthalmic care” statement).

Brian Wort's avatar

“…conditions where we’d want modern, controlled human trials with standardized formulations and validated endpoints.”

Bring ‘em on, pal - we’d all love to see that too, but your second point explains exactly why we’ll never see one.

Julia O‘Sullivan's avatar

“Sterility is a big deal. Eye drops that are compounded, mixed at home, or sourced outside regulated sterile ophthalmic manufacturing carry real risk of vision-threatening infection”

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! As a laboratory professional among more, I get nightmares and want to screech when I read the comments about ‘do it yourself’ concoctions to save a few dollars, and along with it sometimes the disdain for quality control. It is impossible to exaggerate how easy it is to contaminate outside of rigid controls. And though we may be skeptical on viruses, there’s no doubt of bacterial mayhem afoot in even the apparently cleanest environs. Please purchase from only the highest quality sources if you go this route, only glass, and then rigid carefulness on your part in use. If for example that dropper tip so much as glances anything, sterilize before reuse and before returning to the bottle. Please. This is not paranoia. Its experience.

Don't know your ophthalmologist..

But showing a Substack write-up to a med school grad would make for a funny skit on SNL or CNN. Predictable. Would write itself.

Similar to such as "Pol Pot as Doctor", "Hitler/Netanyahu on Virility", "Elizabeth Warren Lecture Series: Redbones, Black Folks and Fried Chicken"

Thank you for this information. I have been diagnosed with cataracts and have dry eyes and have been considering trying DMSO.

Louise Vogel's avatar

Years ago I got dry eye; my ophthalmologist told me to take a tablespoon of cod liver oil daily. I did; dry eye cleared up. Still taking it. Dr (who was also a brain researcher & a bit of an iconoclast) also said that the cod liver oil is the best thing for your aging brain.

Mary E Marshall's avatar

If I may change the subject a little, does DMSO have any negative effect on lung health, like copd and emphysema, my roomie won't use it because of what she found on WebMD, I told her consider the source.

Mary E Marshall's avatar

Thank you! I had my roomie read it and she's putting DMSO on her chest for the copd.

Yesterday, while watering my garden my vision in my left eye disappeared. I can only describe it as complete opaqueness . I had light but could not focus on anything. Stunned, I closed my eyes and massaged the closed lid but nothing. Rapid blinking , nothing. I went straight into my house wondering what I could do. I must admit I was in a little panic mode. I have DMSO but nothing else I felt I could do use. I poured a little distilled water into a glass and roughly poured an equal measure of DMSO. I soaked a pure cotton handkerchief and gently dabbed my closed eyelid. Some massaging with my fingers into the corners caused a little stinging but after a few minutes it subsided. After a minute or so I started to blink. Now, I kid you not, my sight returned almost 100%. Watery at first then little by little it improved. It was not perfect but the I remembered to wear my glasses and it was 100% . I was astounded.
