As I have it as a nasal spray, I can't say how much it is really doing for my eyes because I only use it when I need to. I tend to sneeze a lot - which I'm unsure if is connected to my eyes but somehow I think it is. Listening to the news about people being refused entry onto planes because they display symptoms of swine flu - my sneezing can be so bad that my face gets really hot and people have made comments! I will have to carry evidence with me at the airport!
I found this information - which may be of help to you.
The 7 Herbs In Luffa Complex Can Put A Stop To Itchy Eyes And Sneezing Fits
Formulated by Alfred Vogel, world-renowned Swiss naturopath, herbalist and author of The Nature Doctor, the seven herbs present in Luffa Complex were chosen based on their ability to alleviate the symptoms associated with allergic rhinitis. They include:
Sponge Cucumber (Luffa operculata) helps to relieve symptoms, including sneezing, nasal discharge and a blocked nose.
Khella (Ammi visnaga) has an antispasmodic effect on the bronchial muscles, which eases the symptoms of breathlessness that sometimes occurs in those with environmental allergies.
American Spikenard (Aralia racemosa) targets irritations of the larynx and trachea (windpipe) and helps reduce inflammation in the nose and bronchi.
Balloon Vine (Cardiospermum halicacabum) works to relieve allergies, particularly itchy skin reactions.
Heartseed (Larrea mexicana) is an anti-inflammatory, which helps reduce allergy symptoms such as itching and sneezing.
Thryallis (Galphimia glauca) has desensitising properties that reduce the body's reaction to allergens (allergy-producing substances). It is useful in the treatment of hayfever, allergies and bronchial asthma.
Okoubaka (Okoubaka aubrevillei) is a detoxifying herb. It was added to the formula to gently cleanse and strengthen the body, and to enhance the action of the other six herbs
