As an herbal remedy, licorice has come under some contention due to its high concentration of a steroidal substance called glycyrrhiza, but for the treatment of myopia, it has been used for centuries. Preparing a licorice remedy is also rather simple. You can combine a small amount of licorice, mash it up with honey and ghee, and then mix this with milk. Drinking this blend once or twice a day can have significant health benefits, and also prevent the oxidative stress that can speed up the development of myopia.
