Question:
Does anyone have personal expeience with alternative cataract treatment? What was the therapy? How effective was it?


Answer:
Adelle Davis has a lengthy discussion of nutritional factors which may be involved in the etiology of cataracts, though few M.D.s are aware of this. See her "Let's Get Well", pp 282-283.

You should definitely read HER discussion, because you'll need her book to learn just what she recommends in her "antistress diet". She mentions several vitamins that are important, but stresses that just popping one or two supplements isn't likely to do much for you. You need a very intensive "supernutrition" program which includes ALL the nutrients that may be involved. The vitamins she does specifically mention in this section, though, are B2, B6, E, C, and pantothenic acid. And she mentions that an ample supply of protein is needed.
