Myopia (Short-sightedness)

Myopia makes distant objects appear blurry. It’s influenced by eye growth and focusing habits. Ophthalmology/optometry evaluation guides glasses/contacts, myopia control options, and refractive procedures. Supportive Ayurvedic routines may help with eye strain, posture, and daily balance.

Overview

Myopia (near-sightedness) reduces clarity for distant objects. Care typically includes glasses/contacts, myopia-control strategies (as advised), or refractive options when suitable. Children and adolescents benefit from periodic, age-appropriate eye exams.

Common Contributors

  • High near-work load (reading/screens) without routine breaks
  • Low outdoor time in childhood/adolescence
  • Suboptimal lighting or posture
  • Familial/myopic parent history

Ayurvedic Perspective (Supportive)

Traditional guidance emphasizes balanced routines, reducing strain (āyāsa), and supporting digestion (agni) and rest. Such measures are complementary to eye-care guidance and do not replace clinical evaluation or corrective options.

Daily Tips

  • Use the 20-20-20 rule for screens/reading; maintain good lighting and posture.
  • Plan regular outdoor time (as advised by your eye-care professional).
  • Prioritize sleep and balanced meals; stay hydrated.
  • Discuss any herbal oils or eye practices with your clinician for safety.
