Clinical Study On The Add-On Effect Of Bhringaraj Yashtimadhu Siddha Taila Pratimarsh Nasya In Simple Myopia

Abstract

Myopia is a prevalent ocular disorder with profound personal, societal, educational, and economic implications. Despite advancements in corrective techniques, no definitive measures exist to halt its progression, and available interventions are associated with certain risks. In Ayurveda, myopia bears close resemblance to Timira, particularly involving the first and second Patala, with similarities in clinical features, anatomical structures, and pathogenesis. Ayurvedic management emphasizes Kriya-kalpas (topical ocular therapies) for addressing such conditions. Severe cases of myopia often impair sustained near vision and lead to blurred perception of distant objects. With this background, the present study explores the efficacy of Bhringaraj Yashtimadhu Siddha Taila administered via Nasya therapy in the management of Simple Myopia through a clinical evaluation.
