lil chick, I presently take taurine. Before beginning low vitA, several years ago, I took it, but was likely too toxic to notice a benefit. I agree with Grant in that eating low vitamin A is the best treatment. I recently learned that the reason cats benefit from taurine is because it detoxifies vitamin A in cat’s retinas. I had understood that taurine prevented blindness in cars, but was not aware of toxic vitamin A causing the blindness.

I have searched for the taurine/cats article but have not found it. Thought I had saved it, but in my haste , I did not. Will continue searching.
In researching suggested dosage, I found that 3000 IU seems to be a common dosage. A few days ago I supplemented more than this (dividing throughout the day). Surprisingly, upon awakening the next morning, my eyes were filled with matter. This has not occurred in my eyes for many years.

Thank you, Arios, for posting the links. I think that the first link was the one I had seen, although I thought its location was else wheee.
In Oursnia’s Log, post #114, she describes her positive use of taurine.
Reading and posting on the forum is quite difficult for me with my very low vision. Hopefully I’ll not make too many blunders; thanks for understanding.
