Treatment Overview
Netra Tarpana is a specialized Ayurvedic eye therapy in which ghee or specially prepared herbal oil is poured and retained in a small enclosure made from black gram, placed gently over the eyes for a specific duration.

Why Doctor Guidance & Skilled Therapists Matter
A consultation ensures that the herbal ghee or oil selected is appropriate for the patient’s condition. Further, as there are certain contraindications—such as wearing contact lenses, recent cataract surgery, laser eye treatments, or active eye infections—Netra Tarpana should only be performed under the supervision of a qualified doctor to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Qualified therapists ensure that the oil is retained properly and that the eye massage is performed effectively without causing discomfort.
The Treatment Process
The session begins with a complimentary consultation with the doctor to discuss eye concerns. During treatment, the eyes are gently enclosed with a ring made of black gram, into which herbal oil or ghee is poured and retained for a specific time. After removal, a gentle massage of the eyelids and surrounding area is performed to stimulate circulation, relax muscles, and enhance nourishment.
How the Therapy Works
Netra Tarpana works through sustained ocular lubrication and absorption. The retention of medicated ghee over the eyes creates a protective lipid layer that helps reduce tear evaporation and improves tear film stability.
The fat-soluble herbal components may aid in nourishing superficial ocular structures and supporting epithelial healing.
This therapy provides a calming effect on the nervous system, helping reduce strain associated with prolonged screen exposure and stress, thereby improving overall visual comfort and eye function.
What Makes This Treatment Unique
Netra Tarpana is a preventive and restorative therapy for eye health, particularly suitable for people with digital eye strain or long-term vision stress. Regular sessions support eye comfort, prevent common eye conditions, and enhance overall ocular wellbeing.
