Netra Tarpana – Ayurvedic Eye Rejuvenation Therapy for Dry Eyes and Eye Strain
Netra Tarpana: Nourishing the Eyes Naturally
Netra Tarpana is a traditional Ayurvedic therapy designed to nourish, soothe, and rejuvenate the eyes. In this procedure, a gentle reservoir is created around the eyes using a dough made from black gram flour, and warm medicated ghee (Ghrita) is carefully retained over the open eyes for a prescribed period under the supervision of a qualified Ayurvedic physician.
The therapy is traditionally recommended to support eye health and may help relieve:
Dry eyes
Eye strain caused by prolonged screen use
Tired or fatigued eyes
Burning sensation in the eyes
Mild redness due to eye fatigue
Support for certain early refractive changes, as part of a comprehensive Ayurvedic care plan
Netra Tarpana is also believed to nourish the eye tissues, improve lubrication, relax the surrounding muscles, and promote overall visual comfort. It is commonly included in personalized Panchakarma and rejuvenation programs after an Ayurvedic assessment.
Netra Tarpana reflects Ayurveda's holistic approach to eye care by combining medicated ghee with time-tested therapeutic techniques. When performed by trained Ayurvedic professionals, it offers a gentle and natural way to support eye comfort, reduce strain, and maintain healthy vision as part of an individualized wellness plan.
