You take the photo.
We read the eye.
If your horse has been off-colour and nobody can tell you why, an iris analysis gives you somewhere concrete to look, and something practical to change this week.
That photograph is the whole job. One clear shot of each eye, close in, taken on your phone. We send you a guide showing exactly how.
An iris analysis is a complementary assessment. It is not a diagnosis and it does not replace your vet. If your horse is unwell, call them first.
How it works
Three steps, and none of them involve a vet's bill
Send your photographs
Clear close-up images of both eyes, taken on any modern phone. We send you a one-page guide showing exactly how. Most owners get a usable shot within ten minutes.
Tell us the history
Age, breed, workload, diet, and anything that has been troubling you, however vague. “He’s just not right” is a perfectly good starting point.
Receive your analysis
A written report mapping what the iris shows, zone by zone, with herbal, feeding and management recommendations you can act on straight away.
If the photographs you send are not usable, we will tell you and ask for another set. There is no extra charge for that, and it is more common than you would think.
What you receive
A written report you can act on
- Zone-by-zone analysis of both irises
- Constitutional assessment of inherited strengths and weaknesses
- Identified areas of stress, congestion or accumulation
- Specific herbal recommendations with dosage guidance
- Feeding and management adjustments
- A follow-up email and a call to talk it through
Written in plain English. If something in the report warrants veterinary attention, it says so directly and tells you to make the call.
Is it for you?
Owners usually come to us with one of these
- A horse that is “not quite right” with nothing on the bloods
- Recurring problems that keep coming back after treatment
- Behaviour that everyone insists is temperament
- A new horse whose history you do not know
- Poor doers, dull coats, and stubborn weight
- Deciding where to spend your money on investigation next

Questions
What owners ask before ordering
A clear, close, well-lit shot of each eye taken on a phone, with no flash directly into the eye. We send a short illustrated guide the moment you order. If your first attempt is not usable we will simply tell you and ask for another, at no extra charge.

No. An iris analysis is a complementary assessment that indicates where the body is under strain. If anything in the report suggests veterinary attention is needed, we will say so plainly and tell you to make the call.
Frequently more so. The iris often shows the constitutional picture underlying a diagnosed problem, which is to say why this horse and why now. That is exactly what makes management decisions easier.
