From your description I reccomend seeing (no pun intended) an experienced chinese medicine practitioner. they have specialised treatments for all sorts of supposedly difficult cases by western standards. I am sure you will find some relief with that approach especially since you are also addressing diet and lifestyle through macrobiotics. In chinese medicne there are highly specialised study and description of things like eye disorders etc with treatments that can address it.

from another perspective have you tried taking and also applying MSM? it is a sulfur nutritional product that could be very useful - lots of info online. There are also MSM eye drops available. very inexpensive and effective - a good brand in the USA is Rich Distributing.

another thing that could be useful is hyaloronic acid

the only brand recommended is Sythovial 7 because of its structure and effectiveness. It is a crucial component of joints and also the vitreous humour in the eye - it is hudrating and lubricating.

you just take a few drops internally in water once a day.

I would also reccomend a high quality aloe vera juice. It is used traditionally for liver and eye related issues - take a small amount internally once or twice a day if it resonates with you.

also consume plenty of leafy green vegetables

and you could try spirulina which tonifies the yin (fluid dynamics and blood) of the liver which will have a beneficial effect on eye health and hydration.

drink suffiencient good quality water

you could take a good quality milk thistle (st mary's thistle) supplement with at least 100-150mg - preferably more of the active ingredient silybin to help the liver to detoxify past chemicals.

check out other nutrients needed for eye health. your previous lifestyle may have depleted your reserves of thses and although your current healthy diet will address this it may be falling short in some areas or may be taking a long time.

some nutrients needed for eye health especially are vitamin a - cod or preferably halibut liver oil is a good source,
omega three fatty acids from fresh flax or fish oils, zinc, magnesium, selenium.

I am sure you could find more info online as well on this.

here are some traditional macro eye remedies which may also help. Explore these options and see if you can find relief and let us know!
