Ayurveda healing for Ophthalmology

The eye is the most important sense organ and it directly linked to the brain. It is a very sensitive organ that is extremely close to the working of the human brain.  Eye diseases like myopia, cataract, glaucoma, and retinopathy are common.   

Eyes are critical to the quality of life, these are the windows to the world and the soul. Vision is one of the five sensory organs that is used in Ayurvedic healing. Eye diseases today are very popular, which is partly caused by a number of fast life factors – long working hours at computers, poor eating habits, insufficient sleep hours, stress and so on.  Also occur from long hours of watching TV, constantly reading small prints, inappropriate head position

What Causes Ophthalmology?

It seems there might be a misunderstanding in your question. Ophthalmology is a medical specialty focused on the study and treatment of eye disorders, and it is not typically considered a condition or something that “causes” issues. If you are referring to the causes of eye disorders or conditions related to ophthalmology, such as cataracts, glaucoma, or refractive errors, they can arise from various factors like age, genetics, environmental influences, and underlying health conditions. Clarifying your question might help provide a more accurate response.

Ways to Prevent Eye diseases According to Ayurveda

  • Eye Hygiene: Maintain cleanliness by washing eyes regularly.

  • Balanced Diet: Adopt an Ayurvedic diet with eye-friendly nutrients.

  • Herbal Eye Care: Use triphala for eye health, either in eye washes or supplements.

  • Avoid Eye Strain: Practice eye exercises and take breaks to prevent strain.

  • Ayurvedic Therapies: Consider Netra Tarpana for eye rejuvenation using medicated ghee.
