Journal Title: World Journal of Advance Healthcare Research - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
„WE LIVE IN THE VISUAL WORLD‟. The importance of eye was underscored in ayurveda by quoting eye as the most important of all sense organs: “Sarvendriyanam madhye nayanasya pradhanatvath”- eyes hold special status among all the sense organs. As panchakarma deals with many of the therapeutic procedures same way kriyakalpas are the topical therapeutic procedures for eye (ophthalmology). Modern ophthalmologists have convinced the new generation about the significance of eye care and right procedures to follow in order to ensure healthy vision; these are a part of virgin fields of medical knowledge hidden in ancient medical manuscripts, but the impact of Ayurvedic procedures for these ailments is yet to be recognised by public in general. one such ocular therapeutics is Kriyakalpa.
