Abstract
Background: Eye is an important sense organ. It is very important to protect vision. Aacharya Sushruta described Atimaithuna (excessive sexual activity), in etiological factors causing Netraroga. Excessive sexinduced stress hormones – epinephrine and nor-epinephrine – may damage retinal endothelial cells, inflame eye balls and dilate pupils, over sensitivity to light in the retina and adverse effect on power of vision. Need of study: Most ophthalmologists can effectively diagnose and treat blurred vision caused by glaucoma,cataracts, presbyopia, diabetes, macular degeneration or retinal detachment. But for sexually exhausted people with blurred vision, the problem goes undiagnosed and treated. Aim: To evaluate and compare the efficacy of Vidarikanda churna and Kataka churna in the management of male sexual function and poor vision. Materials and Methods: 110 patients who had Timira (refractive errors) with associated symptoms of male sexual dysfunction (MSD) were selected for randomized control trial on the basis of prepared inclusion and exclusion criteria; out of them 50 patients each were divided in two groups (excluding drop outs) named Group A and Group B. Results: The trial drug Kataka churna showed statistically significant results in subjective parameters of visual disturbances (Timira roga) and visual acuity. Vidarikanda churna significantly improved the quality of vision and MSD. Conclusion: The study overall concluded that Shukravradhaka drugs like Vidarikanda significantly improve the quality of vision.
