HELLO HUSSAIN,

I understand your concern- long term use of spectacles for myopia (short-sightedness), associated headache, and your co-morbidities (diabetes and high cholesterol).

Myopia (nearsightedness) is correlated in Ayurveda with Timira - a disease of the eye affecting vision

Causes= kapha and pitta imbalance leading to obstruction of light perception, weakened ocular muscles, and nerve strain

Headache can also be due to vata-pitta imbalance aggravated by eye strain

Diabetes and cholesterol aggravate the pathology further by weakening ocular tissues

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp at night with warm water for improving metabolism

2) SAPTAMRITA LAUHA- 2 tabs twice daily with milk for eye strain and headache

3) PUNARNAVADI KASHAYA= 15 ml with equal water twice daily after meals for swelling, water retention or cholesterol issues are prominent

4) NISHA AMALAKI CHURNA = 1 tsp in morning very useful for diabetes + eye health

5) AMALAKI RASAYANA= 1 tsp in morning for rejuvination of eyes and tissues

LOCAL CARE

1) NETRA TARPANA (ghee/oil retention over eyes)= using jeevantyadi ghee nourishes optic nerves and reduces eye strain

2) NASYA= instill 2 drops of Anu taila in each nostril daily morning

3) NETRA SEKHA (eye wash)= with triphala decoction daily morning

DIET -amla, Triphala, carrot, beetroot , spinach , drumstick, green leafy vegetables -Ghee in moderation, milk, almonds, soaked overnight

AVOID -excessive fired, spicy, sour, or junk food -refined sugar important for diabetes -heavy, oily food that aggravates Kapha and cholesterol

LIFESTYLE AND EYE EXERCISES -Trataka kriya= steady gazing on a point or flame daily -Palming rubbing palms and covering eyes -Blinking practice to relax ocular muscles -gentle eye rotations clockwise or anticlockwise -adequate sleep, stress management, meditation -protect eyes from excess screen glare, dust, smoke

IMPORTANT NOTE -Spectacle removal= Myopia correction naturally is limited, Ayurveda can reduce progression, strengthen eyesight, and sometimes mildly improve vision, but complete spectacle removal may not be always be possible, especially after many years -Diabetes and cholesterol must be strictly managed -regular eye check ups fundus exam are important to prevent diabetic retinopathy

Myopia, or nearsightedness, might cause inconvenience, but by addressing underlying health conditions and adopting specific Ayurvedic practices, you can pursue better eye health and possible reduction in specs dependency.

Firstly, understand that your diabetes and cholesterol are critical factors. They could influence eye health, so maintaining them within normal limits is essential. Follow a balanced, plant-based diet that focuses on whole grains, vegetables, legumes, nuts, fruits, and lean proteins. Make sure that your meals are high in fiber and low in refined sugars and fats, as this will assist in managing your blood sugar and cholesterol levels effectively.

In Ayurveda, focusing on the Pitta dosha, which predominantly influences vision, is essential. A Pitta-pacifying diet can help maintain eye health. Consume cooling foods such as cucumbers, melons, and coconut water. Avoid spicy, oily, and excessively salty foods that can aggravate Pitta.

For eye health specifically, Triphala, an Ayurvedic herbal formulation, is advantageous. You can prepare a Triphala eyewash by boiling a tablespoon of Triphala powder in two cups of water, then cooling and straining it. Use this liquid to wash your eyes in the morning. Drink a glass of Triphala water (1 teaspoon in lukewarm water) every night to detoxify your system from within.

Practicing eye exercises can also be beneficial. Perform Palming by rubbing your hands together and placing them gently over your eyes to relax the optic nerve. Combine this with eye yoga by gently moving your eyes up and down, side to side, and in circular motions.

Headaches might be related to eyestrain or your conditions. Regular oil massage on the scalp with Brahmi oil might soothe tensions and relieve headaches. A short, daily meditation or Pranayama, especially Anulom Vilom, can help reduce stress, a common headache trigger.

Regular check-ups with an ophthalmologist are crucial, as they’ll catch any problems early on. If specific Ayurvedic practices need changes or intensities, consult with a professional for a tailored approach.

Myopia often relates to an imbalance in the kapha dosha, affecting the eyes. Chronic conditions like diabetes and high cholesterol can influence eye health, so addressing those through a comprehensive lifestyle and dietary approach is essential.

Start by focusing on a consistent daily routine that helps balance your doshas. Waking up early, practicing gentle eye exercises such as palming, rolling the eyes in upward and downward directions, and focusing on distant objects can strengthen eye muscles over time. Practicing Trataka – a yogic cleansing technique where you gaze at a flame in a dark room – can help improve eye strain, but should be done cautiously and not if it causes discomfort.

Include in your diet foods rich in Vitamin A, like carrots, leafy greens, and sweet potatoes, which support eye health. Ghee is another beneficial inclusion; it nourishes the eyes when taken internally in moderation and can be used to massage temples gently to relieve headaches. Keep a balance between work and relaxation to reduce overall eye fatigue.

For your headaches, assessing and balancing the digestive fire (Agni) can help, as headaches are sometimes related to digestive issues. Triphala churna taken before bedtime can aid digestion and detoxification, benefitting both eyes and head.

However, given the overlap with diabetes and cholesterol, any new dietary or herbal approach should be coordinated with your healthcare provider to prevent complications. Regular check-ups with an ophthalmologist are key to managing myopia safely, and if headaches persist, further evaluation may be necessary to rule out any underlying issues. Always prioritize professional medical guidance when dealing with multiple health conditions.
