ABSTRACT
Arma is the Shuklagata roga. Arma can be correlated to pterygium based on the character of growth. Pterygium is a common ocular- surface disorder capable of causing significant visual impairment & cosmetic deformity. At present surgical treatment is the only satisfactory approach, recurrence after surgical excision is common & recurred lesions grow more aggressively than the primary lesions. The ayurvedic approach of the disease mainly concentrates on preventing the progression of the disease. With this aim clinical study was undertaken. The objectives of the study are to evaluate the efficacy of Pushpavarti eye drops and the efficacy of Nayanasukhavarti eye drops in the management of Arma before and after treatment in the group and between the groups. In the present study 30 patients were randomly selected and divided into 2 groups, with 15 patients each. Group Apatients were treated with Pushpavarti eye drops for 45 th th th days. Group B were treated with Nayanasukhavarti eye drops for 45 days. Observations were made on 45 day and 2 follow ups on 15 and 30 day after treatment to observe the possible recurrences. In both the groups subjective and objective parameters were assessed and the results were statistically analysed.
