Classical Ayurvedic Procedures (Kriya Kalpa) The most effective way to manage nerve damage is through specialized ocular therapies that allow medicine to penetrate deep into the orbital tissues: 1.Akshi Tarpana: This is the gold standard for degenerative eye conditions. A “well” of black gram paste is built around the eyes and filled with medicated cow ghee (like Triphala Ghrita or Jeevantyadi Ghrita). It deeply nourishes the optic nerve. 2.Nasya Karma: Since the nose is considered the gateway to the head (Nasa Hi Shiraso Dwaram), administering medicated oils like Anu Taila or Ksheerabala 101 through the nostrils helps in stimulating the cranial nerves. 3.Netra Seka & Aschyotana: Continuous pouring or medicated eye drops using herbs like Yashtimadhu (Licorice) to reduce post-traumatic inflammation. MEDICINE 1.Triphala Ghrita: Consumed with warm milk, this medicated ghee is essential for long-term rejuvenation of the visual apparatus. 2.Saptamrath lauh 1-0-1 after food with normal water .A classic formulation containing Iron, Triphala, and Licorice, specifically indicated for improving eyesight. Diet and Lifestyle (Pathya) •Chakshushya Diet: Increase intake of carrots, leafy greens, Amla, and cow’s ghee. ••Avoid Irritants: Minimize “Katu” (spicy) and “Amla” (sour) foods, as they can aggravate Pitta in the eyes. •Digital Strain: Strictly limit screen time to allow the damaged nerve to rest
