HELLO, In Ayurveda, chronic dry eyes are mainly caused by Vata dosha aggravation, sometimes along with pitta REASONS IN YOUR CASE- AS IT IS MORE THAN 6 MONTHS -age related tissue dryness -reduced tear production -long standing vata imbalance -possbile eye strain, screen exposure, or systemic dryness CATARACTS- Early stage Cataracts are considered a degenerative eye disorder, usually involving -Vata predominance (degeneration , dryness) -kapha involvement (clouding, opacity) -weak nourishment of eye tissues (Alochaka pitta dysfunction) IMPORTANT AYURVEDIC PRINCIPLE Ayurveda aims to slow progression, nourish the eye tissues, and support vision, but advanced cataracts requires surgical intervention. Medicines are supportive, not curative, for mature cataracts DOES ELANEER HELP? For dry eyes -Yes, Elaneer can help with dry eyes, especially when -dryness is chronic -over the counter drops give only temporary relief -the cause is internal dryness (vata imbalance) AYURVEDIC ACTION ON ELANNED -lubricates eye tissues -supports tear film stability -nourishes alochaka pitta -reduces irritation, burning, and foreign body sensation FOR CATARACTS -Elaneer does NOT dissolve or reverse cataracts It may help in early stages by -improving nourishment to eye tissue -reducing oxidative stress -slowin further progression It should be considered supportive, not a replacement for ophthalmologic care INTERNAL MANAGEMENT DIET -warm,cooked meals -ghee 1-2 tsp daily, if digestion allows -milk boiled, warm, with a pinch of turmeric -green leafy vegetables (well cooked) -alomnds 2 soaked daily, peeled AVOID -excess dry foods chips, crackers -very spicy, sour, or fried foods -excess tea,coffee -cold and refriegerated foods INTERNAL MEDICATIONS 1) TRIPHALA GHRITA= 1 tsp with warm water or milk twice daily 2) SATAMRUT LAUHA= 2 tab with honey twice daily after meals 3) AMALAKI RASAYANA= 1 tsp in morning LOCAL EYE THERAPIES TRIPHALA EYE WASH= soak 1 tsp triphala overnight boil in morning, cool, strain and wash eyes Apply medicated Collyrium- help improves clarity and circulation DAILY EYE CARE -wash eyes with clean, cool water, in morning -gently palming eyes daily -avoid directly air, fan, or Ac exposure to eyes -Take breaks from screens (20-20-20 rule) LIFESTYLE AND PREVENTIVE ADVICE -ensure adequately sleep -manage stress pranayam, gentle meditation -protect eyes from dust and sunlight -stay well hydrated Ayruevda works best as supportive and preventive care alongside regular eye check ups DO FOLLOW HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL THANK YYOU DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Yes, ELANEER can help with dry eyes. ELANEER is an artificial tear / lubricating eye drop, so it is commonly used to relieve eye dryness, irritation, burning, and discomfort. It helps keep the surface of the eye moist. -It does not treat cataracts. If your dryness is getting worse, see an opthalmologist for proper evaluation and treatment

Elaneer (tender coconut water) can help slightly because it cools the body and supports hydration. But it cannot cure cataract and may give only mild relief for dry eyes. For dry eyes: Drink enough water Use lubricating eye drops (doctor advised) Triphala eye wash (only after doctor advice)

Hello I get what you’re dealing with. Dry eyes that are really bad, plus cataracts, can cause a lot of pain, blurry vision, burning, and tired eyes. You’re not the only one — and yeah, Ayurveda can totally help you out safely and naturally YOUR CONCERN You’ve got: –Chronic dry eye (more than 6 months) –Burning, irritation –Cataracts –Tried artificial tears before, but they didn’t do much AYURVEDIC VIEW In Ayurveda, it’s called: Netra Rukshata + Timira It’s from: –Too much Vata → dryness, burning –Too much Pitta → lens issues (cataract) –Not enough natural eye lubrication DOES ELANEER WORK? YES, Elaneer works best for dry eyes. Elaneer has: –Medicinal coconut water –Herbs that hydrate the eye –Nourishment for your tear glands Real Perks – Really hydrates the eye – Less burning and grittiness – Protects the cornea – Stops dryness from making cataracts worse ❌ But heads up: Elaneer can’t get rid of cataracts that are already there It just slows them down HOW TO USE ELANEER – 1 drop in each eye – Twice a day (morning and night) – Before bed is perfect FULL AYURVEDIC PLAN To slow down cataracts and dryness 1.Triphala Ghrita ½ teaspoon at night with warm milk or water Nourishes the optic nerve and lens 2 Nasya with Anu Taila 2 drops in each nostril in the morning Gets blood flowing to your eyes better 3.Elaneer – eye drops Like I said above FOOD FOR YOUR EYES ❌Avoid: –Spicy stuff – Fried foods – Too much screen time – Dry air Eat: – Ghee – Carrots – Soaked almonds – Green veggies – Enough water Elaneer is awesome for your dryness It protects your eyes Keeps cataracts from getting worse ❌ But surgery is the only way to remove cataracts With this plan, you can keep your vision clear for years to come Warm Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate

es, ELANEER eye drops can help with eye dryness. ELANEER is a lubricating (artificial tears) eye drop, so it is useful to relieve symptoms like: Dryness Burning or irritation Foreign body sensation Redness due to dry eyes Important points in your case Dry eyes: ELANEER is helpful and safe for regular use as advised by an eye doctor. Cataracts: ELANEER does not treat or cure cataracts. Cataracts are related to lens opacity and usually require ophthalmologist evaluation and, in advanced cases, surgery. Severe or increasing dryness: If dryness is worsening, it may be due to age, prolonged screen use, hormonal factors, medications, or associated eye conditions. Advice You may use ELANEER for symptomatic relief. Avoid excessive screen time and use the 20-20-20 rule (every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds). Protect eyes from wind, dust, and AC exposure. If dryness is severe or vision is affected, please consult an ophthalmologist for detailed evaluation.

HOLA, En Ayurveda, la sequedad ocular crónica se debe principalmente a la agravación del dosha Vata, a veces junto con Pitta. RAZONES EN SU CASO (YA QUE HAN PASADO MÁS DE 6 MESES): - Sequedad tisular relacionada con la edad - Producción reducida de lágrimas - Desequilibrio de Vata de larga duración - Posible fatiga visual, exposición a pantallas o sequedad sistémica CATARATAS - Etapa inicial Las cataratas se consideran un trastorno ocular degenerativo, que generalmente implica: - Predominio de Vata (degeneración, sequedad) - Participación de Kapha (opacidad, turbidez) - Nutrición deficiente de los tejidos oculares (disfunción de Alochaka Pitta) PRINCIPIO AYURVÉDICO IMPORTANTE El Ayurveda tiene como objetivo ralentizar la progresión, nutrir los tejidos oculares y apoyar la visión, pero las cataratas avanzadas requieren intervención quirúrgica. Los medicamentos son de apoyo, no curativos, para las cataratas maduras. ¿AYUDA EL AGUA DE COCO? Para ojos secos -Sí, Elaneer puede ayudar con los ojos secos, especialmente cuando: -la sequedad es crónica -las gotas de venta libre solo brindan alivio temporal -la causa es sequedad interna (desequilibrio de vata) ACCIÓN AYURVÉDICA DE ELANEER -Lubrica los tejidos oculares -Favorece la estabilidad de la película lagrimal -Nutre el alochaka pitta -Reduce la irritación, el ardor y la sensación de cuerpo extraño PARA CATARATAS -Elaneer NO disuelve ni revierte las cataratas Puede ayudar en las primeras etapas al: -Mejorar la nutrición del tejido ocular -Reducir el estrés oxidativo -Retrasar la progresión Debe considerarse un tratamiento complementario, no un sustituto de la atención oftalmológica. TRATAMIENTO INTERNO DIETA -Comidas calientes y cocidas -Ghee: 1-2 cucharaditas diarias, si la digestión lo permite -Leche hervida, tibia, con una pizca de cúrcuma -Verduras de hoja verde (bien cocidas) -2 almendras remojadas al día, peladas EVITAR -Exceso de alimentos secos: patatas fritas, galletas saladas -Alimentos muy picantes, ácidos o fritos -Exceso de té y café -Alimentos fríos y refrigerados MEDICAMENTOS INTERNOS 1) TRIPHALA GHRITA: 1 cucharadita con agua tibia o leche dos veces al día 2) SATAMRUT LAUHA: 2 comprimidos con miel dos veces al día después de las comidas 3) AMALAKI RASAYANA: 1 cucharadita por la mañana TERAPIAS OCULARES LOCALES LAVADO OCULAR CON TRIPHALA: Remojar 1 cucharadita de triphala durante la noche, hervir por la mañana, enfriar, colar y lavar los ojos. Aplicar colirio medicado: ayuda a mejorar la claridad y la circulación. CUIDADO OCULAR DIARIO -Lavar los ojos con agua limpia y fría por la mañana -Masajear suavemente los ojos a diario -Evitar la exposición directa al aire, ventiladores o aire acondicionado -Tomar descansos de las pantallas (regla 20-20-20) ESTILO DE VIDA Y CONSEJOS PREVENTIVOS -Asegurar un sueño adecuado -Manejar el estrés con pranayama y meditación suave -Proteger los ojos del polvo y la luz solar -Mantenerse bien hidratado Ayurveda funciona mejor como tratamiento complementario y preventivo junto con revisiones oculares periódicas. SIGA ESTAS INDICACIONES ESPERO QUE ESTO SEA ÚTIL GRACIAS DRA. MAITRI ACHARYA

Sí, Elaneer (Elaneer Kuzhambu) puede ayudar mucho con la resequedad ocular severa y es muy usado en Ayurveda para ojos secos, irritación, ardor y en etapas tempranas de cataratas. Por qué es útil en tu caso Es refrescante, humectante y nutritivo para la superficie ocular Reduce la sequedad, la sensación de arena y la irritación crónica Ayuda a retrasar el avance de cataratas tempranas (no las cura, pero mejora la lubricación y reduce inflamación) Cómo usarlo correctamente Dosis: 1 gota en cada ojo, 2 veces al día (mañana y noche) Momento ideal: por la mañana después de lavarte la cara y por la noche antes de dormir Forma de aplicación: Acuéstate boca arriba Baja ligeramente el párpado inferior Pon 1 gota en el saco conjuntival (no directamente en la córnea) Cierra los ojos 1–2 minutos sin parpadear fuerte Parpadea suavemente después Duración: mínimo 2–3 meses continuos, luego evalúa con oftalmólogo Precauciones importantes Úsalo solo si es Elaneer Kuzhambu original de buena marca (ej. Kottakkal Arya Vaidya Sala, AVN, SNA Oushadhasala) Si sientes ardor fuerte o enrojecimiento al poner la gota → para inmediatamente y consulta No lo uses si tienes infección activa, úlcera corneal o alergia conocida Combínalo con lágrimas artificiales (sin conservantes) durante el día si la sequedad es muy intensa Complementos recomendados Triphala Ghrita – 5 gm por la mañana con leche tibia (excelente para cataratas tempranas y sequedad interna) Amla o Triphala en polvo – 1 cucharadita con agua tibia por la noche (mejora la salud ocular desde dentro) Ghee puro – ½–1 cucharadita en la comida diaria (lubrica desde dentro) Consejo urgente Aunque Elaneer es muy bueno para sequedad y cataratas iniciales, a los 66 años con sequedad severa + cataratas → visita pronto a un oftalmólogo especializado para evaluar presión intraocular, estado de la retina y grado real de cataratas. No dependas solo de remedios naturales. Dr Gursimran Jeet Singh MD Panchakarma
