My eye doctor used the machine and said it was to check overall health. He said it showed a problem with chronic constipation. I told him it was a problem in the past but not now. And I didn't have the nerve to ask if it could tell if a person is on drugs.

My husbands eye doctor correctly diagnosed his heart condition by pointing out the capillaries that were permanently constricted. They can also see liver problems when the whites of your eyes look yellow and check for diabetes when they blow air into your eyes. Drugs show up as dilated capillaries together with constricted irises. I haven't heard of a constipation test though.

There is but it is not completely accurate. My doctor told me that it would be better to get general check ups instead. Sometimes, it can lead to misdiagnosis.

sorry- this guy is a fraud. there's no way to tell if you're constipated by looking at your eyes. i hope you didn't pay him. and more importantly, i hope you're not actually still going to him.

Sometimes the scale is a pretty good forecaster.
