Priyanka Rani, Preity Rawat*, Gunjan Sharma and Arun Kumar
ABSTRACT
Kriyakalpa procedures are described in classical texts and are applied according to the disease type and disease stage. The reason might be that the drugs administered systematically may not cross the blood aqueous, blood-vitreous and blood-retinal barriers. Vidalaka and Seka karma are described under Kriyakalpa given in Ayurvedic texts. Vidalaka is a type of Kriyakalpa therapy which is mainly indicated in acute inflammatory conditions of eyes such as Daha (burning sensation), Updeha (discharge), Ashru (watering) Shopha (swelling) and Raga (redness). In Seka Karma, lukewarm Kwatha is poured over closed eyelids which depresses local inflammation by increasing the blood circulation. Different formulations are given in classic texts for eye diseases and one among them is Yashtiyadi Lepa and Prapaundrikadi kwath mentioned by Acharya Yogratnakara in Netra Keywords: Yastiyadi Lepa, Shushkakshipaka, Prapaundrikadi Kwatha, Rasanjana, Analytical Study.
