Patient will have horizontal uncrossed diplopia which is greater at distance, which worsens in the direction of the palsied muscle and gets better in the contralateral gaze. Vasculopathic risk factors such as diabetes mellitus and hypertension are more common in elderly people due to microvascular ischemia. Treatment options with sixth cranial nerve palsy include alternate patching, prism therapy, strabismus surgery and botulism injections. Here, we present case series of two patients of Isolated Abducens nerve palsy, secondary to Diabetes Mellitus and Hypertension, who underwent Viddhakarma along with other Ayurvedic management. Data were collected prospectively with a follow-up of three months. Case Report: Two cases presented to the Outpatient department with pre-diagnosis of Sixth Cranial Nerve Palsy with signs and symptoms of binocular horizontal diplopia, inability to abduct left eye and mild esotropia secondary to hypertension and diabetes mellitus. In Ayurveda, symptom of Dwitiya Patalgat Doshdushti (Timira) by Acharya Vagbhata and Trutiya Patalgat Doshdushti (Timira) by Acharya Sushruta can be correlated with the diplopia. Snayugata vitiation of Vata Dosha leads to Ekangavata which causes constriction of Sira and Snayu. Thus, sixth cranial nerve palsy can be correlated with Ekangavata and Timira. Viddhakarma as an adjuvant therapy to the Ayurvedic treatment regimen, patients started showing improvement in the symptoms within one to one and a half months and symptoms resolved completely, thereby enhancing the quality of life of the patient. Conclusion: Neuro-ophthalmological cases related to cranial nerve palsies can be treated successfully with Ayurvedic management and Viddhakarma as an adjuvant therapy.

Timira, characterised as an eye ailment in Ayurveda, can be correlated with refractive errors. Myopia is a type of refractive error in which distant vision is hampered and affects a considerable portion of the population today. Patients with vitiated doshas have fuzzy vision when they reach the prathama patala of the eye; this stage is marked by avyaktasdarshana (Sushruta) and animitta avyakata rupa darshana (Vagbhata). All Acharyas describe prathama patalagata Timira as a sadhya drishtigata roga. Nasya is a therapeutic modality for urdhwajatrugata vikaras, according to Vagbhata. In Sutrasthana, Sushruta describes Viddha karma as a cure for Timira. Shrungaveradi taila Nasya is recommended for the treatment of patalgata vikaras in Bhaishajya ratanavali. Case presentation: In this study, prathama patalagata Timira patients were chosen, and Nasya with Shrungaveradi taila and Viddha karma on alternate days was performed for eight days in these patients. The pilot study showed promising results.

Sushruta has described 12 Drishtigat rogas in Uttartantra. The anatomical consideration of Patalas & symptoms of the vitiated Doshas situated in these Patalas reveals that the word Timira which is described as an ocular pathology in Ayurveda is nothing but errors of refraction. Myopia, a form of refractive error where the distant vision is compromised, embraces a large section of the present-day population. In today's world, the pace of life has become fast, irregular and stressful, due to which the visual acuity gets impeded, which can be correlated with Timira described in Ayurvedic classics. Prathama Patalagata Timira is explained by all Acharyasas a Sadhya Drishtigata Roga. When vitiated Doshas reaches the Pratham Patala of the eye, the patients have blurred vision; this stage is characterized by Avyaktasdarshana (Sushruta) & Animitta Avyakata Rupa Darshana (Vagbhata). Vagbhata has described Nasya as a treatment modality for Urdhwajatrugata Vikaras Sushruta has described Viddhakarma as a treatment modality for Timira in Sutrasthana. Akshadi Taila Nasya Yoga is explained in Ashtang Hrudaya. In the present trial, 30 patients of Prathama Patalagata Timira were selected and Nasya of Akshadi Taila was done along with Viddhakarma.

Clinical findings in Eales disease are characterized by avascular areas in the peripheral retina followed by microaneurysms, and neovascularization and are hallmarked by recurrent vitreous hemorrhages and vision loss. The symptoms of Eales disease can be correlated to Dwitiya Patalagata Doshdushtijanya Timira in Ayurveda. When the vitiated Doshas are situated in the Dwitiya Patala, it causes confused visual perception and appearance of bees, flies, and circles in front of the eyes, which can be correlated with Timira described by Acharya Sushruta. According to Acharya Vagbhata, Nasya and Netra Tarpana are indicated in Timira's samanya chikitsa. Here, we present a case of 38 years old male patient, previously diagnosed and treated with Eales disease that underwent Ayurvedic treatment at our institution and showed remarkable improvement. Case presentation-A 38-year-old male patient, presented to our institution's OPD with complaints of diminution of vision in both eyes, floaters, specks, and cobwebs in the vision of both eyes in the last eight months. He was previously diagnosed with Eales disease in both eyes with the help of FFA and fundus photography. He was treated with oral steroids, AKT (Anti-Koch's Therapy), Intravitreal injection in both eyes, and Pan-retinal photocoagulation therapy in the left eye. But due to poor response and recurrent retinal haemorrhages and neovascularization, he was advised of left eye Vitrectomy. Hence the patient opted for Ayurvedic management. He underwent Jivantyadi Ghrita Nasya, and Netra Tarpana along with oral medications like Saptamrut Lauha, Panchatiktaghrita Guggul, and Avipattikar Churna for one month.
