What is scotoma and how can Ayurveda help with vision impairment? - #16669
I’ve recently noticed some issues with my vision, particularly a dark spot in my field of view. It seems to appear when I’m looking at something bright, and it makes it hard to see clearly. After researching a bit, I learned that this could be a scotoma, which is a blind spot or visual disturbance in the vision. I’m concerned that this could be a sign of a more serious condition, like macular degeneration or glaucoma, and I want to know how I can support my eye health naturally to prevent any further damage. I’ve heard that scotomas can sometimes result from issues with the retina or optic nerve, and I’m curious if Ayurveda has any remedies for conditions that lead to vision impairment. Does Ayurveda have any herbal remedies or treatments that support the health of the retina and optic nerve, or can it help with reducing visual disturbances like scotomas? I’ve read that Triphala, Amla, and Brahmi are used in Ayurveda to improve vision and protect the eyes from degeneration. Are these herbs effective in treating scotomas or improving overall eye health? If anyone has experience with scotomas or other vision problems and has used Ayurvedic remedies, I’d love to hear what worked for you and how you managed your eye health.
