Why my eyes pain a lot - #345

I'm sorry to hear about your struggle with uveitis. Given that conventional treatments have not provided sufficient relief, you may be exploring other options such as Ayurveda. While it's important to consult a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized treatment plan, here are some Ayurvedic medications that are traditionally used in the management of uveitis, especially when it is linked to autoimmune conditions: 1. Mahatriphala Ghrita Description: A herbal ghee preparation that is known for its use in eye disorders. It is prepared using Triphala (a combination of three fruits) and ghee. Benefits: It helps to strengthen eye muscles, reduce inflammation, and improve vision. Dosage: Typically taken internally, 1-2 teaspoons in the morning on an empty stomach or as directed by an Ayurvedic doctor. 2. Chandrodaya Varti (for external use) Description: A traditional Ayurvedic eye kajal that is used to reduce inflammation, soothe the eyes, and clear vision. Application: Applied in the lower eyelid, but it is better to consult a practitioner before use to avoid irritation. 3.Shigru Guggulu (Moringa) Description: Shigru (Moringa) has anti-inflammatory and immune-modulating properties, which may help in autoimmune conditions like uveitis. Benefits: It reduces inflammation in the eye and supports joint health (beneficial for arthritis if involved). Dosage: 1-2 tablets twice daily after meals, or as directed by a physician. 4. Saptamrita Lauh Description: A classical Ayurvedic formulation used for treating eye disorders, including conditions like uveitis. Benefits: It enhances vision and reduces eye strain and inflammation. Dosage: 1-2 tablets twice daily with honey or as prescribed. 5. Punarnava Mandoor Description: A powerful diuretic and anti-inflammatory medicine used in Ayurveda for autoimmune conditions. Benefits: Helps in reducing inflammation, detoxifying the blood, and improving immune function. Dosage: Usually taken twice a day after meals. 6. Triphala Kashaya Description: An herbal decoction made from Triphala that is used as an eyewash or consumed internally. Benefits: Cleanses the eyes, reduces irritation, and strengthens the eye muscles. Usage: It can be used as an eyewash or taken internally in small quantities. Important Considerations: Autoimmune Nature: Since your uveitis seems to be autoimmune-related, Ayurvedic treatment would focus on balancing the immune system through Rasayana (rejuvenation therapies), along with medications that pacify the aggravated doshas (imbalances in the body) associated with inflammation and autoimmune conditions. Pitta Imbalance: Uveitis is often related to a Pitta imbalance (heat or inflammation), so medications and herbs that pacify Pitta are generally recommended. Final Note: It's essential to approach Ayurvedic treatment with a qualified Ayurvedic physician, as the medications mentioned should be customized according to your specific constitution (Prakriti), the type of uveitis (anterior, posterior, etc.), and your overall health condition. Self-medication can sometimes lead to complications, especially in chronic conditions like uveitis.
