TSE Clinical Trial

My dad give me a book with lots of home remedies with Chinese medicines/ingredients before I leave HK. He intended to give it to Charles so he can practice the "arm-shaking exercise" which is supposed to promote general health. One of the remedies is to help cure near-sightedness and I decide to give it a try, and name it the Tomato's Silly Eye Clinical Trial.



Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of a chinese remedy (longan, longan seed, and gai-ji) to improve severe near-sightedness.
Design: Non-randomized, non-double-blind, non-placebo-controlled.
Setting: The Yau-Tse residence
Method: n=2. Each person will receive 1 to 8 cups of herbal drink(s) per day for up to 8 months from May 1, 2006. Vision exams will be periodically performed and monitored for progress.
