Why Eye Health Matters in an Age of Screens and Stress
Amid digital exhaustion, intense summer heat, and escalating pollution, the health of our eyes is increasingly compromised. From dry eyes and visual fatigue to initial vision decline, contemporary lifestyle is affecting our most delicate sensory organ. Fortunately, Ayurveda provides proven remedies that can safeguard, enrich, and revitalize the eyes naturally.
At Kairali – The Ayurvedic Healing Village, a famous Ayurvedic health retreat located in Palakkad, Kerala, we provide customized treatment for eye care utilizing authentic therapies, nutritional guidance, and herbal assistance—grounded in traditional Ayurvedic knowledge.
The Ayurvedic View on Eye Health (Drishti)
According to Ayurveda, the eyes are governed primarily by the Pitta dosha, particularly the sub-dosha Alochaka Pitta, which is responsible for visual perception. Imbalances due to excessive screen time, mental stress, dehydration, or heat can disturb this dosha, leading to symptoms like:
- Blurred vision
- Eye strain
- Redness or burning sensation
- Dry or watery eyes
Classical texts like the Ashtanga Hridayam and Sushruta Samhita outline specialized therapies and herbs to maintain ocular vitality and prevent early degeneration.
Top Ayurvedic Therapies for Eye Care at Kairali
1. Netra Tarpana (Eye Rejuvenation Therapy)
This deeply nourishing treatment involves creating a ghee-based reservoir around the eyes using a dough dam, and then bathing the eyes in warm medicated ghee. It helps:
- Relieve dryness and strain
- Sharpen vision
- Calm the nervous system
- Reduce dark circles and puffiness
Netra Tarpana is best done under expert supervision as part of a holistic plan at our Health Retreat in Kerala.
2. Herbal Formulations – Triphala, Amalaki & Yashtimadhu
Internally, we recommend herbal supplements like:
- Triphala churna or tablets – rich in antioxidants, supports retina health
- Amalaki (Indian Gooseberry) – rejuvenates Alochaka Pitta
- Yashtimadhu (Licorice) – soothing and anti-inflammatory
These herbs are available in therapeutic-grade formulations from Kairali Products.
3. Eye Exercises & Yogic Support
Yoga helps strengthen the optic nerves and relax the eye muscles. At our Ayurvedic health retreat, we guide guests through:
- Palming and blinking exercises
- Trataka (candle gazing)
- Shitali pranayama for cooling the eyes and calming Pitta
Seasonal Eye Care Tips for Summer (Grishma Ritu)
Ayurveda recommends adapting your routine based on the season. In summer:
- Use rose water eye drops (natural and preservative-free)
- Wash eyes with cooled Triphala decoction
- Avoid excessive sunlight between 10 AM–3 PM
- Consume hydrating, Pitta-pacifying foods like cucumber, coconut water, and buttermilk
These rituals are part of our Seasonal Detox Programs at Kairali, designed to protect your senses during seasonal transitions.
