Let’s Know about Cataract & Its Treatment

What is Cataract?

A cataract in the eye is a dense, cloudy area that forms in the lens of an eye. The retina works by converting the light that comes through the lens into signals. In this disease, a protein appears in the eye and forms clumps that prevent the lens from sending clear images to the retina, hence it is unable to send the signals to the optic nerve, which carries them to the brain. This disease appears slowly with time and then eventually interferes with your vision. Cataracts are common in older people. If a person is over 60 and the vision has gotten blurry or cloudy, then this might be because of cataracts. The cure is possible with cataract treatment in Ayurveda.

Ayurvedic Treatment for Cataract

In Ayurveda cataract is called timira or linga nasha. Aggravated Vata is considered to be responsible for the occurrence of this disease. When the lens of the eye loses its transparency, vision becomes blocked. One of the properties of Vata is to make things dry up. This condition is known as a cataract. If diagnosed at an initial stage, Ayurveda can offer invaluable support in cataract management and natural treatment. During Ayurvedic eye treatment, the aim is to reduce the aggravated body energies and nourishing and strengthen the nerves and tissues of the eye. Various herbal ayurvedic medicines are used to cure cataract:

  • Maha Triphala ghrita is usually prescribed as the cataract treatment in Ayurveda. Triphala provides nourishment and strengthens the nerves and other tissues of the eyeball whereas ghee is known to balance the aggravated Vata.
  • Triphala choorna should be taken and add to it a tumbler of water in the evening. Cover and keep aside for 12 hours. Use this filtrate for both items of washing the eyes and taking it internally
  • Chandrodaya varti is the external preparation used as cataract treatment in Ayurveda. It can be applied to the eyes. As it has a mild irritating nature, it causes lacrimation in the eyes and promotes blood circulation.

Home Remedies for Cataract

Along with cataract treatment in Ayurveda, there are few home remedies to cure cataract eye disease such as: Take 1 tsp Triphala powder with boiling water at sleep time. Mix dhaniya 100 g, dark pepper 10 g, almond 100g, fennel 100g. Take 1 tsp with a drain at sleep time. Some sugar can be included if you are not diabetic.

Types of Cataract

  • A nuclear cataract is one of the cataract types that form in the middle of the lens and causes the nucleus to become yellow or brown
  • Cortical cataracts are wedge-shaped cataract types that form around the edges of the nucleus.
  • Posterior capsular cataracts form faster than the other two types and affect the back of the lens.
  • Congenital cataracts are the cataract types that are present at birth or form during a baby’s first year and are less common than age-related cataracts.
