Abstract

Now a days there are many advances in the field of modern Ophthalmology but still having adverse effects.So there is a need of Ayurveda through the local therapeutic ocular procedure known as Kriyakalpa for treatment of various eye diseases.In today’s era Myopia is the most common refractive error of eye.It is mostly seen in School age group students and hampers their day to day activities. Simple Myopia can be corrected with glasses or spectacles and high Myopia requires refractive surgeries. But all these treatments are not patient friendly because it affects the economical condition of the patient.In Ayurveda,Tarpan is one of the most effective Kriyakalpa which is known to have a definite answer to the problem of Myopia.So for my case study of simple myopic paediatric patient, we used Netratarpan kriyakalpa as main treatment along with Ayurvedic Rasayan chikitsa. With this view an attempt was made to discover the scientific facts and effectiveness of Ayurveda in the Simple myopia. Tarpana acts on the principle of Bahya Snehana. It can successfully cross the defensive barriers present in eye for absorption and nourishes the ocular and periocular structures, strengthens the sphincters & improves the distance visual acuity.Hence an attempt has been made to elaborate the clinical utility of Tarpan in management of simple myopia.
