Other than pills, there is an expensive billberry juice, imported from Germany.
It's bottled, so it is cooked. You can get some of the "active ingredients" of
billberry in other foods: blueberries and blood oranges.
The Ayurvedic herb, amalaki (it's the dried amla fruit), is excellent for the
eyes: I take 1 teaspoon at night, with warm water. You can get the herb at
Bazaar of India in Berkeley; they do mail order and their phone number is
510-548-4110. The Ayurvedic herbal blend, triphala churna, contains amalaki
and is also good for the eyes.

Tom Billings
