For any ongoing problems with your horse/pony or just interested in their general health and inherited or genetic strengths and  weaknesses, an Iridology analysis is a very useful tool. I can travel out to do an in person iridology analysis - cost £55 plus travel costs or you can send me photographs of their eyes for an online assessment.

Online assessments available at cost of £65.00. I do not charge the fee until I have received pictures which are good enough quality to be able to do an accurate analysis. Three or four good different photographs of each eye,  (left and right) are required; of a magnified photo of the eyes and not a photo of the side of the head with eye on it. Please send on email as an attatchment to collinsonherbs18@protonmail.com  

Useful tips for taking pictures - you may need another person to help you.

-using either a mobile phone camera and its torch or a proffessional camera, (do not use the flash) and a small torch (not too bright) focusing on the iris,

-taking the pictures with both camera and torch at 90 degrees (right angles) to the iris. Think of the iris as being a 'clock face' and I need to see all parts of the clock face throughout the photos sent. 

Take pictures indoors, in a stable or barn, using a dark'ish corner with little ambient light source. 

Too much ambient / surrounding or overhead light causes reflections in the iris and hides or distorts the iris markings.  Open doorways, roof lights, windows or bright electric lights create reflection which hide the eye markings we need to see. Pictures taken outside nearly always have too much reflection, (trees, cars, buildings, the camera itself and hands holding it, etc) , preventing a clear view of the iris.

Use a small torch or phone torch if not too bright, focused on the iris as the pictures are being taken, both camera and torch light at 90 degrees to the iris. If the torch is too much from the side, below or above, this creates shadows and again distorts the iris markings.

You may need an extra pair of hands to help with this.

If over head light is unavoidable, try a palm of hand or holding a light weight book or old hat above the eye at forehead if the animal will tolerate this.

Ensure forelock is placed away from the eyes so as not to distort or hide view of the iris.
