From an Ayurvedic perspective, addressing lazy eye (amblyopia) and dry eyes involves a holistic approach that balances the doshas and enhances overall eye health. For lazy eye, consider using Triphala, a traditional herbal formulation that supports vision; it can be taken in powder form with warm water before bed. Additionally, ghee (clarified butter) is beneficial for nourishing the eyes, either consumed daily or used as a medicated eye wash. Incorporating specific eye exercises, such as moving the eyes in various directions and focusing on distant objects, can strengthen eye muscles. Panchakarma therapies, including Nasyam (nasal herbal oil treatment) and Shirodhara (oil pouring on the forehead), may help detoxify and promote relaxation. For dry eyes, use soothing agents like rosewater or chamomile tea as eye drops to relieve dryness. Triphala can also be utilized as an eye wash to provide moisture and detoxify. Triphala ghee is used for a very effective treatment known as Netra tarpan. It’s crucial to maintain a diet rich in Vitamin A and omega-3 fatty acids through foods like carrots, leafy greens, and flaxseeds. Hydration is essential, so drink warm water and herbal teas throughout the day. Practicing eye yoga and pranayama can reduce strain and enhance relaxation. Consulting with an Ayurvedic practitioner will allow for personalized recommendations based on your specific constitution and imbalances, helping to improve your eye health and overall well-being.

In Ayurveda, treatments for both lazy eye (amblyopia) and dry eyes focus on strengthening the eyes, improving circulation to the ocular muscles, and promoting moisture balance. While Ayurvedic remedies cannot guarantee a cure for conditions like lazy eye, they can provide supportive care to enhance vision and comfort, and help with dry eyes by addressing the underlying causes.
For lazy eye, Ayurveda suggests a combination of eye exercises and herbal treatments to improve focus and eye health. One key herb is Triphala, which is widely used in Ayurvedic medicine for eye health. You can take Triphala powder internally (1/2 teaspoon at night) to promote overall vision health. Additionally, Bhringraj oil, when massaged gently around the eyes, can improve blood circulation to the eye muscles and nerves, helping strengthen vision. For eye exercises, practices such as Trataka (concentration on a steady point, like a candle flame) can help improve focus and alignment of the eyes.
For dry eyes, Ayurveda focuses on hydration, enhancing the production of natural tear fluids, and reducing inflammation. Herbal oils like Moringa and Castor Oil can be used to lubricate the eyes. A few drops of these oils, applied directly to the eyes, can reduce dryness. Additionally, using herbal eye washes made from Triphala or Neem can soothe the eyes and clear toxins from the ocular tissues. Drinking herbal teas made from Ginger, Licorice, or Amla can also support hydration and reduce inflammation inside the body, contributing to better moisture balance in the eyes.
For vision correction, Ayurveda emphasizes the use of a balanced diet rich in antioxidants. Foods like Carrots, Spinach, and Amla (Indian Gooseberry) are high in vitamin A and other nutrients that promote eye health. It’s also beneficial to include Ghee (clarified butter) in your diet, as it is known to lubricate the eyes and support overall vision health.
In addition to herbal remedies, incorporating regular eye exercises can help maintain eye strength. These exercises can include gentle eye rotations, palming (rubbing the hands together to generate heat and placing them over the eyes), and focusing exercises.
For your refractive issues like astigmatism (cylindrical) and myopia (spherical), Ayurveda does not specifically address correcting these through surgery or lenses but encourages regular practices that can help reduce strain and support vision. Anjan (collyrium), which is a traditional Ayurvedic eye ointment, can be used to relieve eye strain and improve eye health over time.

For adults who've got lazy eye—amblyopia—it can be a bit tricky since treatment is usually more effective in kids. But Ayurveda offers some hope, though we may need patience. Here's what you can think about trying:
For a start, diet is crucial. Try including more leafy greens, carrots and coriander in your meals. These foods are packed with vitamins that can promote eye health. Ghee (clarified butter) can be beneficial too, as it enhances the function of ojas, or vital energy, which can support vision. Consider applying a teensy amount of Triphala ghee, lukewarm, around the eyelids before sleep—avoid it getting in your eyes, naturally!
Another option is eye exercises. Palming helps relax the eyes—rub your hands together till warm, then gently cup your palms over the closed eyes. Also, try focusing on a pencil held at arm's length, slowly moving it closer, and then farther away, to train the eyes you'll need consistency. You know, repetition can work wonders over time.
Dry eyes pairing, well that can be tough sometimes with everything going on in our lives. Take breaks from screens. Simple, right? Set a reminder to blink often when you're at the computer or using your phone. Keep yourself hydrated since dehydration can worsen dryness, sometimes sipping warmish water. And at night, you can try using rose water eye drops—ensure they're pure and distilled, just one drop in each eye.
Everyone's dosha balance is different so it's essential to keep this in mind while making these changes. You might want to check with a local Ayurvedic practitioner to get personalized advice for you. Bear in mind, if any discomfort persists, or gets worse, then I'd def recommend seeing an eye specialist nearby to rule out any complications. Health comes first, right?
