Namaste, Difficulty in reading, writing, and seeing small objects can occur in conditions like Stargardt’s disease or Retinitis Pigmentosa, which affect the retina of the eye. These conditions often require regular monitoring by an eye specialist to understand the exact diagnosis and progression. Ayurveda may sometimes help support eye nourishment and overall eye health, but it is important to continue follow-up with an ophthalmologist for proper evaluation. Simple measures that may help support eye health: Avoid excessive screen exposure and give regular rest to the eyes. Ensure proper lighting while reading or working. Include foods rich in vitamin A and antioxidants such as carrots, leafy greens, and fruits. Practice gentle eye relaxation practices and maintain good sleep and stress management. Ayurvedic medicines sometimes used to support eye health include: Triphala Ghrita – traditionally used in Ayurveda to support eye nourishment. Saptamrit Lauh – sometimes used to support eye health and vision. Consult me for more advice and suggestions on the above medicines.
