AGE RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION

This is a very serious eye condition characterised by central vision that seems blurry, distorted vision wherein straight lines may look wavy,the vision seems pinkish looking, more sensitive to bright light and glare. There is the danger of partial or complete vision loss if not treated properly.

OUR APPROACH

We at Punarva have treated this disabling condition without intravitreal injections, preserving and improving vision very successfully.

The Punarva protocol is based on the simple premise that the Physician must diagnose and treat only based on sufficient evidence. This evidence should be ‘patient or rogi based’ in addition to being ‘disease or roga based’ in accordance with thefundamental principles of Ayurveda.

How is this made possible?

• A thorough and      complete recording of the patient’s medical history, capturing every      minute aspect of his/her lifestyle.

• A thorough      head-to-toe clinical examination, uncovering health risk factors that the      patient is unaware of, directly connected or unrelated with his presenting      medical complaint(s).

• This process of      detailed history recording and clinical examination- which includes the      classical Srotha-Vikrti pariksha – leads to an accurate understanding of      the Dosha status of the individual and lays the foundation for an accurate      differential diagnosis and medical management.

• Further, the      patient is entitled to be clearly informed about the diagnosis arrived at,      as also understand the medical management proposed for him. The Physician      shall proceed only with the patient’s informed concurrence.
