Eye health is crucial for maintaining clear vision and overall well-being. Various factors, including aging, environmental conditions, and underlying health issues, can affect eye function. Common eye problems include dryness, redness, infections, cataracts, and vision impairment. Ayurveda views eye health through the lens of “Netra Roga,” addressing both prevention and treatment using natural therapies.
