Students will learn how residual spots found in the iris are indicative
of the end of pathological process of an associated organ.

educational forms for use in clinical practice.
To maintain student motivation and activity throughout their course
learning process.
To expose the student to the most current Iridological research developments.

To have the student successfully pass examinations.
Iridology
Course Level Descriptions
Level One - Introduction to Iridology
This first level introduces the roots of Iridology going back to findings
in Tutankhamen's tomb toward current technological advancements. With
the absence of magnifying optical devices, impossibility of fixing
the image and, especially, the basis of its quantitative analysis,
confined the abilities of past researchers. Results obtained by scientists
especially during the last 15-20 years have increased considerably
our knowledge about these complex exteroceptive areas of the reflected
information, associated with the cerebral centers. Examples of hyperspectral
imaging research of the iris by the InstituteI is shown to students
as a prime example of new iridodiagnostic technology.
Level Two - Anatomy of the Eye
This level covers basic anatomical fundamentals of the whole eye.
Other anatomical principles covered include the anterior part of the
eye, histology, bio-microscopic characteristics of the iris surface,
physiological functions of the iris, pathology of the anterior part
of the eye, inborn anomalies of the iris, diseases of the iris, benign
tumors of the iris and common pathology of the structures of the anterior
eye will be studied.
Level Three - Integrative Iridology Chart
One of the most controversial questions in iridology is the vast amount
(40 Plus) of Iridology charts. It has been distinguished that around
70% of iridology charts correspond with each other and around 25%
have unique differences. Students are shown how such differences can
be justified by learning important factors. Several Iridology charts
from past centuries are shown to familiarize the student with Iridology
chart development.
The main chart used in this lesson was derived by a very modern computerized
Iridology Chart based on Russian-Korean development. By the use of
computer and software, the whole eye, pupil and Autonomic Nerve Wreath
are automatically detected and measured thus placing the chart correctly
over the iris, thus having a high degree of accuracy. Students shall
be exposed to this new and highly accurate (90% - Aju University,
Korea) iris chart.
Level Four - Structural Signs of the Iris
Structural, reflex and pigment pathological signs are most informative
iridological signs. Students will discover how they provide the information
about the location of the pathological process, and allow, as far
as it is possible in iridology to evaluate their mechanism, stage,
character and severity.
Level
Five - Constitutional Classification Via the Iris
This discipline will expose the student to numerous variations of
iris constitutions and associated treatment principles. From the standpoint
of prevention, the identification of a disease process in the pre-clinical
phase is more desirable than long-term therapy for damaged organs
and tissue systems. This can be achieved by accurately identifying
the constitution and the reactive capabilities of the patient with
consideration of environmental and stress factors.
Level
Six - The Autonomic Nerve Wreath
The autonomic nerve wreath (ANW) is the projection of autonomous (vegetative)
nervous system. Students will discover how the Autonomic Nerve Wreath
has dual origin: embryological (from fetal membranes) and vascular
(from the vessels of the lesser arterial circle). The autonomic nerve
wreath is individual for each person; however, students will be shown
that it is possible to distinguish the 4 typical forms including its
iridodiagnostic significance in detecting active genetic weaknesses.
Level Seven - Pupils and Pupillary Symptoms
The student will learn how pupil reflexes play the primary role in
making diagnosis of many neurological diseases, being a part of well-known
syndromes: Bernard-Horner, Adie's, Argylle-Robertson, Parinoud's etc.
Students will discover how changes of color, dimensions, shape, position
of center, equality and reflector reactions of pupils can have clinical
analysis significance.
Level
Eight - Toxic Dystrophic Signs of the Iris
In this study, the student will learn about the group of toxic dystrophic
changes of iris and how Iridodiagnostic tests make it possible to
evaluate many toxic-dystrophic processes. Students will also discover
how toxic-dystrophic signs are symptoms of organism changes and how
to give pertinent lifestyle recommendations.
Level Nine - Heterochromias of the Iris
Students will learn about heterochromias of iris and differentiation
between inherited and acquired diffuse and local changes of color.
Students will discover the importance of hereditary peculiarities
of iris color, toxic and drug dyschromias, pigment spots and their
color, tints of iris stroma and why they should be carefully analyzed.
Level
Ten - Adaptive Rings and Arcs
Ophthalmologists consider contraction rings to be the simple folds
of the iris, and explain their origination by the work of neuro-motor
apparatus of the eye and its contraction, dilation of the superficial
layers in the iris. However, iridologists believe that some other
factors should be taken into consideration since not everyone has
such rings and arcs! This level will explore several theories why
such rings and arcs occur in the iris.
Level
Eleven - Pigment spots in the Iris
It is considered that pigment spots always point to the pathological
process in the organism thereby they belong to the very important
topic diagnostic signs of iris. Students will learn how residual spots
are indicative of the end of pathological process in the associated
organ and how their colors, size, form, density are important indicators
for clinical evaluation.
Level
Twelve - Conjunctiva Signs
The Student will learn how evaluation of bulbar conjunctiva does not
duplicate the iridodiagnostic examination but can offer entirely new
data to the results of iridodiagnostics. Level Thirteen Iridodiagnostic
Procedures Students will study modern concepts of physiology and doctrine
regarding nerve activity and theories about how the body's exteroreceptive
zones and points are projectively connected with internal organs and
systems.
The
Course is Recognised by The Capital University - Washington, DC, USA.
