Abstract
Chalazion is most common focal inflammatory lesion of eye lid. Currently, available treatment modalities in contemporary science are intralesional corticosteroid injection and surgical drainage. As per Ayurveda, it can be correlated with utsangini that is sannipataja varmagata roga. In this study a 26 year old female patient approached the Eye OPD of NIA, Jaipur with painless multiple nodular swelling and foreign body sensation in both eyes since 2-3 months. History and examination revealed the diagnosis of multiple chalazia. Patient was treated according to treatment principles of granthi by adopting lekana and sodhana procedures because it is also varmagata granthi (utsangini). Patient was treated locally with Netra Parisheka therapy as well as systemically administered shamana chikitsa using various Ayurveda formulations. Remarkable results were observed in the form of improvement in all the symptoms and signs of the disease. Hence, Ayurveda treatment proofed to be effective in the management of multiple chalazia.
