Consulting for specific tests like manual refraction and retina scans primarily falls under the realm of conventional optometry or ophthalmology, not Siddha-Ayurveda. You should continue consulting with a qualified eye specialist who can conduct these assessments accurately. However, from an Ayurvedic perspective, blurry vision could suggest an imbalance within the doshas, particularly pitta dosha, which governs vision-related functions.
For managing this issue, consider incorporating a few Ayurvedic practices that might complement your treatment plan. Two beneficial approaches include practicing Tratak, a yogic exercise focusing on a distant object to stabilize the vision, and gently massaging the eyes with Triphala water. To make Triphala water, soak a teaspoon of Triphala churnam (a mix of three fruits) overnight in water, strain, and use the clear water for washing your eyes in the morning.
Alongside, ensure that your diet supports eye health - consume foods rich in antioxidants like lutein found in spinach and kale. Stay hydrated to keep the eye tissues healthy, and regularly practice the Palming technique for eye relaxation. Gently rub your palms together to generate warmth, place them over your closed eyes without applying pressure, and relax.
Remember, these methods support but do not replace specialized medical advice. Follow your physician’s guidance and attend any scheduled tests or appointments promptly. If symptoms persist or worsen, promptly reach out to your eye care professional to ensure necessary attention.
