Brief Summary
|
Dry Eye Disease is recognized as a growing health problem and one of the
most frequent reasons for seeking eye care. In India, the rural as well as
urban population suffers from dry eye disease. The incidence is quite higher amongst
outdoor workers and people from rural areas with poor socioeconomic status and
also due to the modern life style and global warming, the population suffering
from dry eye disease are increasing day by day.
Hence there is a need to find
a safe and effective medication. The modern definition of dry eye disease is based on the concept of the
three layers of the tear film. Secondary factors such as pathological changes
to the eyelids, cornea, or conjunctiva, can themselves disturb the normal
function of the tear film.
Shushkakshipaka is one among the Sarvagatha
Netra Rogas characterized by; Gharsha
(Irritation), Kunita (Photophobia), Avila Darshana (Blurred vision), Toda (Pricking type of pain), Daha (Burning sensation) and Raktharaji (Congestion). So the symptoms of Dry eye syndrome can be co-related with the symptoms Shushkakshipaka mentioned in ayurvedic
classics
Anu
taila nasya, Mahoushada Anjana, Jeevanthyadi ghrita tarpana are mentioned
as a treatment of Shushkakshipaka both in Ashtanga gridaya and Susruta samhita
uttara sthana. The previous researches
have evaluated the efficacy of single combination. Here my present study aim is
to evaluate the combined effect of the Anu taila nasya, Mahoushada Anjana,
Jeevanthyadi ghrita tarpana in Dry eye syndrome (Shushkakshipaka).
This is a pre and post design where 40
patients of both sex, in an age limit of 10-70 yrs, fulfilling the diagnostic
criteria will be registered for the
present study according to inclusion criteria.
The patients will be selected from OPD & IPD of Department of Shalakyatantra,
Amrita school of Ayurveda Hospital, Vallikkavu, Kollam. Subjective and
Objective parameters before and after treatment will be recorded meticulously
and analysed by using appropriate statistical methods, the Paired t test and
Wilcoxon signed rank test with Bonferronni correction and final conclusion will be drawn. |
