And: There are people that believe that through the iris, you can also diagnose. Oriental medicine also include meridians and connections between various body parts, part of the reason acupressure may help in many conditions. Some of it may be real, some of it not.

I am not aware: Best way to find out early if you have a kidney problem is to assess early warning signs, e, g, flank pain, blood in urine, painful urinating ; several more symptoms that would be much more accurate in deciding kidney disease. If you are really concerned a visit to your family physician will alleviate any concerns.

Anecdotal: There are not studies that document such a correlation, so i would not put any true value in that notion.
