Computer Vision Syndrome – Ayurvedic Management Through Kriya-kalpa

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) is a group of ocular and extra-ocular symptoms resulting from prolonged use of digital screens. Symptoms include eye strain, dryness, burning sensation, blurred vision, headache, and fatigue. Ayurveda does not describe Computer Vision Syndrome directly; however, the symptom complex closely resembles Shushkakshipaka, Abhishyanda, Timira, and Netra Shrama, predominantly involving Vata and Pitta Dohsas. Netra Kriya-Kalpa, described extensively in classical texts, offers localized, effective, and preventive management. This article highlights the Ayurvedic understanding of Computer Vision Syndrome and elaborates the role of Kriya-Kalpa procedures with proper classical references.
