Hey, sounds like you’re dealing with quite a mix of eye issues—dry eye, wateriness, strain, and those annoying headaches. Since you’ve already tried Mahatriphala Ghrit with no success, we might wanna take a different approach.
First thing to understand, in Ayurveda, these symptoms could relate to an imbalance of Vata and Pitta doshas, commonly affecting the eyes and head. Since every case is a bit unique, think about your lifestyle—stress, diet, screen time—all these can play a role.
Let’s talk about Netra Tarpana. It’s a soothing treatment, kinda like an eye bath, with medicated ghee. You’d place a dough ring around the eye, fill it with lukewarm ghee, and keep your eyes open for a bit. This helps soothe eyes and can relieve strain and dryness. You’ll need someone experienced to assist or directly perform this for you, it’s not a DIY thing.
Also, consider herbs like Amalaki (Indian gooseberry) for its cooling effects. You could try Amalaki Rasayana, a rejuvenative which you can take in small spoon with warm water before meals, twice a day. Just check how it fits with your other routines.
Another thing, diet can be a real game-changer. Reduce spicy, fried foods—these can aggravate Pitta. Increase intake of fresh fruits, veggies, and drink ample water. Ghee in your diet might too help, believe it or not.
For quick relief on headaches, a dab of essential oil like peppermint on your temples could help, but go light.
Finally, screen breaks every 20 minutes (20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds) can help with eye strain.
Still, if things don’t improve, and considering you’ve got multiple symptoms, it could be good to consult a local Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized plan. Don’t just rely on one solution—everyone’s body is different. Prioritize self-care, and hope this helps set you on a clearer path!
