It sounds quite frustrating dealing with the vision issues you’re experiencing. While Ayurvedic practices can offer some supportive measures, it's essential to ensure you're also receiving appropriate care from an ophthalmologist. If they suspect early cataracts, they can advise you best on surgical interventions or other medical treatments.
In the meantime, Ayurveda offers ways to support your eye health and potentially ease some symptoms. First, focus on a diet that supports both Pitta dosha and Rakta dhatu, which are connected with vision health. Include foods rich in Vitamin A like carrots, spinach, and sweet potatoes. Regular consumption of Amla (Indian Gooseberry) can also be beneficial due to its high Vitamin C content and antioxidant properties.
Triphala eye wash can be a refreshing and cleansing practice. Soak a teaspoon of Triphala powder in a cup of water overnight, strain it using a fine cloth in the morning, and use that water to gently splash your eyes. Practicing this routinely, say 3 times a week, may support eye health.
You might want to look into incorporating lukewarm ghee into your daily diet or even consider Netra Tarpana — an Ayurvedic therapy which involves bathing the eyes with warm medicated ghee. However, this should be performed under guidance of a skilled practitioner to ensure safety.
Regular eye exercises are simple and effective for strengthening eye muscles. Activities like focusing on an object far away for a few seconds and then looking at something close by and repeating this can help improve focus flexibility.
A lifestyle that counters eye strain is important too. Limit time in harsh artificial lighting, use anti-glare screens, and make sure you're blinking often while using computer. Practicing Pranayama, especially Anulom Vilom, can help in maintaining Pitta balance and promoting calm.
While these are supportive steps, close monitoring by an eye specialist remains key. If visions deteriorate or pain occurs, immediate follow-up with specialized care should be prioritized.
