Myopia is a major public health problem pertaining to eye that entails substantial societal, personal, educational, and economical impact. Various surveys in India have found the prevalence of myopia ranging from 6.9% to 19.7%. Myopia progression is irreversible and methods for the correction of myopia are not without complications. Myopia closely
resembles Timira involving first and second Patala in terms of symptoms, anatomical structures involved, and the pathogenesis of the disease. The study is aimed at evaluating the efficacy of the Pratimarsh Nasya procedure with Bhringaraj Yashtimadhu Siddha Taila in fresh and old myopes. The formulation owing to its neuro nourishing, anti-inflammatory and rejuvenating properties may help in stabilising or reducing the progression of myopia when used as an adjunct to standard ophthalmic care.
