Netra Tarpan
Netra Tarpan is a special Ayurvedic eye treatment where warm medicated ghee is used to gently bathe the eyes. It helps make your eyes healthy, strong, and fresh. This therapy is good for people who have dry eyes, tired eyes, blurry vision, or spend too much time on phones or computers.
A soft dough ring is made and placed around your eyes like a small wall. Then, warm ghee with special herbs is slowly poured into the ring so your eyes are fully covered. You will be asked to open, close, and gently move your eyes so the ghee can reach all parts. After some time, the ghee is taken out and your eyes are cleaned with a soft cloth. You may be given a warm cloth on your eyes for comfort, and then you should rest your eyes—no screens or bright light for a few hours.
