This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 19th day of March, 1936, in accordance with request made by the self, through his sister, Miss [...], new Active Member of the Ass''n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by Mr. [...] (husband of [1118]).

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1132].
2. Now, as we find in the physical forces of this body, [1132], there are specific effects of a condition existent. Yet these in their basic influence are more of a complicated nature or a combination of circumstances that brought about the influence in the system as to produce a disturbance of the kind.
3. And it is correct that unless there is kept a high standard of nominal equilibrium, or unless the general health of the body is cared for, in a specific manner, there may be still further inroads or disturbances from those causes that HAVE brought the disturbance in the optic forces and in the sensory reactions of the system, as indicated.
4. However, we find there has NOT been due consideration given to an existent condition that was produced in times back in the cervical area of the body; when there was that stiffening of the segments in the lower portion - or in the 4th and 5th, as well as subluxation in the 2nd and 3rd cervical area.
5. And this deflection of the incentives for activity, and the pressure produced upon the circulatory forces as related to the superficial activity of the circulation, with the general depletion in the replenishing forces of the body (or impoverishment of same) - combined with the astrological effects upon the body through those periods of gestation through these portions of the system - brought about these disturbing conditions. Hence the lack of the covering of the cornea and of the lens portions of the eye itself to keep in those activities where the folds of the force itself (or the eyeball) prevent them from curling or from separating.
6. Then, if proper consideration is given and the corrections are made, as WE find, material aid might be
1132-1 Page 2
expected in those directions where there might be - and may be given - SPECIFIC aid or help.
7. These corrections, as WE find, would better be made by an Osteopathic Surgeon; a specialist in eye indicated disturbances.
8. And as the corrections ARE made, and there may be the placing or the lifting of those portions that have curled to their normal position, THEN the building up of the general health (as has been maintained) - as WELL as the reconstructive forces in the body itself - may make material aids in not only STOPPING a distressing disturbance but in bringing back at least a portion of the vision, and in PREVENTING any disturbance.
9. We would NOT, however, use a needle or make an incision of ANY nature. Rather that as may be called a pasting would be the more preferable, and cause less pain and INSURE the better results.
10. Doing that, then, in THAT manner, as we find, would be the better for this body, [1132].
11. The body is in close association, or where there may be associations made with those trained in that specific way and manner in the Philadelphia School. [Dr. C. Paul Snyder, Philadelphia College of Osteopathy]
12. Then, this would NOT be wholly as a clinic for an operating UPON, but as a clinic OBSERVATION case WITH the treatments.
13. Of course, keep those shaded lenses that have been used. The rose shade is the better, as we find, or the amber-rose.
14. Do these consistently; not haphazardly but consistently; and we may break up the lesions. Then, as we find they ARE taking their normal place, the pasting operation might be done with impunity.
15. Do that.
16. We are through for the present. Copy to Sister (2 copies; 1 for Osteopathic Surgeon) " " Ass'n file
