"The information received by the brain indicating the health of all of the major organs and systems of the body are reflected in the eye," Aldrich explains, "Which can then be read and interpreted through the science of iridology. Without any kind of body invasion, iridologists can detect, for example, genetic weaknesses shown through the weave in the iris, or specific organ inflammation by discoloration in different quadrants of the eye."
