Netradhara – For Dry, Itching, and Irritating Eye

Our eyes are one of the most delicate and hardworking organs in the body. Constant exposure to digital screens, harsh sunlight, and pollution often leads to dryness, itching, and irritation. While eye drops offer temporary relief, Ayurveda provides a more holistic and long-lasting solution, the Netradhara therapy.


At Divyamrut Ayurcare, Netradhara is performed as part of the ancient Panchakarma practices to cleanse, rejuvenate, and refresh your eyes using time-tested Ayurvedic formulations.

What is Netradhara?

Netradhara is a traditional Ayurvedic eye therapy in which a continuous stream of medicated herbal liquid or milk is gently poured over the eyes from a certain height.


The name comes from two Sanskrit words Netra, meaning “eyes,” and Dhara, meaning “flow.” Together, they signify the therapeutic flow that purifies and relaxes your eyes.


This treatment is known for its ability to reduce eye fatigue, redness, dryness, and burning sensation, making it highly beneficial for those suffering from digital eye strain, pollution exposure, or age-related dryness.

How Netradhara Works?

According to Ayurveda, discomfort in the eyes is caused by an imbalance in the Pitta and Vata doshas. Netradhara helps restore this balance through the use of cooling and cleansing herbal decoctions.


During the process:

  • A warm herbal liquid is gently streamed over the eyes for 15–20 minutes.
  • This continuous flow helps eliminate toxins (Ama) accumulated around the eyes.
  • It soothes inflammation, nourishes eye tissues, and restores clarity.
  • The rhythmic pouring relaxes both the optic nerves and the mind — offering relief from physical and mental fatigue.

Step-by-Step Process of Netradhara at Divyamrut Ayurcare

1. Pre-Treatment (Purva Karma)

Before starting, your Ayurvedic doctor assesses your eye health and body constitution (Prakriti). The session begins with a light head and face massage using medicated oils to relax the muscles and prepare the eyes.

2. Main Procedure (Pradhana Karma)
  • You’ll lie down comfortably with your eyes closed.
  • A lukewarm herbal decoction or medicated milk is poured in a gentle, rhythmic stream over the closed eyes for about 20 minutes.
  • This continuous flow cleanses, cools, and nourishes the eye tissues.
3. Post-Treatment (Paschat Karma)

After the therapy, the eyes are wiped clean and covered with cool cotton pads soaked in rose water. You’ll be advised to rest for a few minutes and avoid screens or bright light immediately after the session.

Key Benefits of Netradhara Therapy

The benefits of Netradhara for dry, itching, and irritating eyes go beyond just symptom relief. It helps in:

  • Reducing Eye Dryness: Keeps eyes naturally moist and refreshed.
  • Relieving Itching and Redness: Calms irritation caused by dust or allergies.
  • Easing Digital Fatigue: Perfect for people working on computers or mobile screens all day.
  • Enhancing Clarity and Focus: Nourishes optic nerves and supports healthy vision.
  • Detoxifying the Eye Area: Removes toxins that accumulate due to pollution or stress.
  • Relaxing Mind and Eyes: The cooling therapy induces deep calmness and improves sleep quality.

Who Can Benefit from Netradhara?

Netradhara is highly recommended for individuals suffering from:

  • Dry or watery eyes
  • Eye irritation and burning sensation
  • Sensitivity to light
  • Redness or puffiness around the eyes
  • Stress-related headaches
  • Early signs of computer vision syndrome

Whether you are a student, a corporate professional, or an elderly person, Netradhara can help restore your eye comfort and clarity.

Lifestyle Tips for Healthy Eyes

In addition to Netradhara therapy, small daily changes can help maintain eye health:

  • Follow the 20-20-20 rule – Every 20 minutes of screen use, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
  • Wash your eyes twice daily with cool water.
  • Include carrots, spinach, ghee, and amla in your diet.
  • Sleep for at least 7–8 hours a day.
