This art-science was developed in Hungary during the last part of the 19th century. Iridology is the study of the coloured part (the iris), its structure and also the colour of the eyes to obtain some very useful information about your health. According to this science, the signs in the eye have a lot of information that allows us to know whether the person is healthy or isn’t.
The tradition tells that an incident is supposed to have inspired Dr. Ignatz von Peczely to create his theory. As he was a boy, struggling with a captured owl in his garden, the owl’s leg was broken and Peczely was very amazed to notice how a dark spot appeared just then in its eye, in the area where a clock would show six.
Some years later, he noticed that a person with a broken leg had a spot in the same iris area than the owl. The doctor, with the memory from his childhood, and after several decades of comparative study and investigation, concluded that every part of the body has a correspondent one in the eye, so he mapped organs across eye zones. In Hungary, he was known as the doctor who could diagnose just by having a look at the eyes.

During 19th century, several theories were developed in other parts of Europe. In 1864, a Swedish pastor named Nils Liljequist also developed an iris-body correlations study, which the results were really amazing due to the similarity with Doctor von Peczely’s theory, even when both works were completely independent.
WHAT IRIDIOLOGY CAN REVEAL

Lymphatic system’s congestion.
Recovery capacity and health levels.
A previous to illness toxins accumulation.

The general health levels in our organism.
