Ayurvedic Medicine for Eye Nerves - #7797
I’ve been experiencing discomfort in my eyes, particularly strain and occasional blurriness, and someone mentioned that weak eye nerves could be a possible cause. I’ve been looking into Ayurvedic medicine for eye nerves to understand how to strengthen them naturally. I’d love to know more about the treatments available and how Ayurveda approaches this issue. From what I’ve read, Ayurveda considers eye health to be closely linked to pitta dosha. Are there specific Ayurvedic medicines or herbs that help in strengthening eye nerves? For instance, I’ve come across remedies like Triphala Ghrita, Saptamrita Lauh, and Patanjali Drishti Eye Drops—how effective are these, and do they address underlying conditions like optic nerve damage, glaucoma, or macular degeneration? I’ve also read about rasayanas that rejuvenate the body and improve nerve health. Can Ayurvedic preparations like Brahmi, Shankhpushpi, or Ashwagandha be used to restore and protect the optic nerves? If so, how should they be taken, and for how long? Another question I have is about external therapies. Does Ayurveda recommend treatments like Netra Basti (eye oil bath) or herbal compresses to soothe and strengthen the eyes? Are these therapies safe for someone with pre-existing conditions like diabetes, which could also affect eye nerves? Lastly, are there any dietary or lifestyle changes to complement Ayurvedic medicine for eye nerves? Should specific foods rich in vitamins A, C, and E or dosha-pacifying diets be followed? If anyone has successfully treated weak eye nerves using Ayurveda, I’d love to hear about your experience. What remedies or therapies worked for you, and how long did it take to notice improvements?
