Glaucoma

 Glaucoma is a progressive eye condition characterized by increased intraocular pressure, which can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss. In Ayurveda, it is linked to an imbalance of Vata and Pitta doshas affecting ocular channels. Ayurvedic treatment involves detoxification through Panchakarma, particularly Virechana (purgation), to eliminate toxins. Ayurvedic therapies like shirodhara, thalapidichal, talam, Netra Tarpana (eye rejuvenation), and Nasya help nourish and strengthen optic nerves. Herbal formulations with neuroprotective and pressure-regulating properties are used alongside lifestyle and dietary guidance. Regular practice of stress-reducing techniques like yoga and meditation further supports overall eye health and slows disease progression.
