Abstract


The prevalence of myopia, which ranges from 6.9 percent to 19.7 percent, is currently considered a serious public health concern for eyes with significant psychological, familial, educational, and economic consequences. The elements that have an impact on the overall growth process, including as stress, debilitating illnesses, endocrine abnormalities, and dietary deficiencies, will also have an impact on the progression of myopia. Timira and Myopia share a lot in common, as does the original Patala. Myopia is a widespread visual condition in which nearby items are clear to you but distant objects are hazy. If adequate care is not performed, it interferes with a person's daily activities. High myopia is frequently linked to potentially blinding disorders like retinal detachment or macular degeneration, but simple myopia may be treated with glasses or contact lenses. Some Ayurvedic writers claim that Simple Myopia and "Drushtigat Vyadhi," as described in Ayurvedic Samhitas, are connected. In the ayurvedic classics, the idea of Chakshushya and several therapeutic techniques are described. These are supposed to increase or improve visual acuity and eye health.
