Can Ayurveda help improve retina function and prevent vision problems? - #16716
Lately, I’ve been having issues with my eyesight, and I’m really worried about long-term damage. I work on a computer all day, and over the past year, I’ve noticed my vision getting blurry, especially at night. Sometimes, I see small floaters, and my eyes feel tired even after a full night’s sleep. When I went to the eye doctor, they checked my eyes and told me that my retina function might be weakening due to digital strain and poor circulation. The doctor said that the retina function is crucial for vision because it processes light and sends signals to the brain. If it starts deteriorating, it can lead to serious eye diseases like macular degeneration or even retinal detachment. He recommended eye drops, more screen breaks, and possibly supplements, but I want to explore natural ways to improve my retina function before things get worse. That’s when I started looking into Ayurveda. I’ve heard that Ayurveda has natural treatments for eye health, and some herbs can strengthen retina function and improve vision. Are there Ayurvedic remedies or therapies that can help regenerate the retina and prevent further damage? Does Ayurveda suggest any specific foods or herbs to nourish the eyes and improve blood circulation to the retina? Also, do practices like Trataka (eye exercises) or Netra Basti really help in maintaining healthy retina function? If anyone has used Ayurveda for improving eye health, I’d love to hear what worked. I don’t want to wait until my vision worsens—I want to take preventive steps now. Should I focus on herbal remedies, diet, or external therapies for the best results?
