Curability of Cataract with Medicines



This case had led me to look up the literature of cataract a little, to see what others have said and done on the same subjects; and in treating various cases of cataract. I have been often moved to a consideration of the true nature and origin of this affection, and on these points some few thoughts will not be out of place by-and-by.

In consequence of this cure of cataract with medicines, I began, as just stated, to look about in our literature to see what others had done.

James Compton Burnett
James Compton Burnett was born on July 10, 1840 and died April 2, 1901. Dr. Burnett attended medical school in Vienna, Austria in 1865. Alfred Hawkes converted him to homeopathy in 1872 (in Glasgow). In 1876 he took his MD degree.
Burnett was one of the first to speak about vaccination triggering illness. This was discussed in his book, Vaccinosis, published in 1884. He introduced the remedy Bacillinum. He authored twenty books, including the much loved "Fifty Reason for Being a Homeopath." He was the editor of The Homoeopathic World.
