EFFICACY OF KRIYAKALPA IN ANJANA NAMIKA (STYE) WITH CHRONIC BLEPHARITIS: AN AYURVEDIC STUDY BASED ON KRIYAKALA

Abstract

The prevalence of stye is relatively high among patients presenting with various eyelid disorders, accounting for approximately 4–5% of all external ocular infections. Recurrence is frequently observed in individuals with chronic blepharitis. In Ayurveda, this condition can be correlated with Anjananamika, a Raktapradhana Vartmagata Sadhya Netra Vikara caused by the vitiation of Rakta and Mamsa Dhatu of the Vartma due to improper Ahara and Vihara. The Lakshanas of Anjananamika closely resemble those of an external hordeolum (stye), an acute suppurative inflammation involving the eyelash follicles and the associated glands of Zeis or Moll. The line of treatment of Anjananamika (Stye) includes Swedana (hot fomentation), Nishpidana (gentle pressure to drain pus), Bhedana (incision), Pratisarana (application of medicated paste over the eyelids), and Anjana (collyrium application). Moreover, Anjananamika is considered as Netra Roga, occurring in the Ama Avastha (immature stage of pathogenesis). Kriyakalpa such as Seka, Aschyotana, Bidalaka, and Pindi can also be effectively employed. The objective of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy of Bidalaka and Seka along with Pratisarana in the management of Anjananamika, and to assess the stand-alone effect of Kriyakalpa procedures in its treatment.
