Diabetic retinopathy can result in the loss of vision. The major reason behind diabetic retinopathy is the alterations in the vessels supplying blood to the retina. For good vision, a healthy retina is needed. This disease can be prevented by taking ayurvedic medicines. These medicines control diabetes and prevent it from affecting the retina.
Generally, with time, hyperglycemia (high blood sugar content) causes blockage of the blood vessels that offer nourishment to the blood and thus, cut off the blood supply. So, the eye chooses to grow new blood vessels that can't be properly developed and can undergo leakage.
Symptoms of Diabetic Retinopathy

- Floaters
- Progressively losing vision
- Photophobia
- Shadows or lost areas of vision
- Complicatedness in seeing at night time
Due to diabetes retinopathy, the eye doesn't receive proper nourishment. In Ayurveda, doctors focus on the main cause of the disease, by controlling these factors, this disease can be cured completely and other body parts also work normally.
In diabetic retinopathy cases, Panchkarma and Netravasti therapy are mainly used for treatment, which nourishes the eyes also. In this treatment, the dough of wheat flour is prepared and applied on the sides of the eyes and medicated ghee is put in between, which nourishes the eyes and it showcases its effect slowly. The use of this therapy halts the disease and the possibility of its cure increases. There are few medicines also in Ayurveda which enhances the retina power.
According to Ayurveda, body organs can function smoothly by the correct treatment. Research is still going on it. If the condition is for a long-time it can't be cured totally by Allopathy but can gain strength. But Ayurvedic treatment is the best treatment for diabetic retinopathy in India as Ayurvedic medicines help you to cure this disease completely without any side-effect.
Diabetic Retinopathy occurs by vitiation of vata, pitta & kapha dosha. Diabetic retinopathy is easily controlled by Ayurvedic eye treatment as Ayurveda medicines not only reverse the blood clots developed in the retina but also toughen the metabolic functions so that chances of blood leakage can be diminished. All these things are achievable only if there is severe control of blood sugar level. Following procedures are effective in treating diabetic retinopathy :
- Lepa over eyes
- Netra dhara
- Thakradhara
- Anjana
- Virechana
- Oral medicines
- Shiro lepa
- Shirodhara
With diabetic retinopathy treatment in ayurveda, this disease can be cured 100%. Most of the patients suffering from diabetic retinopathy become blind by other ways of treatment whereas Ayurveda controls this disease and enhances blood circulation and nourishes the retina. Internal Ayurvedic medicines which will control diabetes & increases blood circulation must be taken during the Ayurvedic treatment. The major objective of this treatment is to clear the path of blood vessels in the macro levels and improve the blood circulation on the Retina.
Under the Allopathic system of medicines, there is no specific treatment. Under the Ayurvedic system, Ayurvedic medicines have proved highly effective in enhancing vision.
