Dr. Sachin. Deva

Abstract :

Any substance that can get digested, assimilated & metabolized by human beings to get energy in the form of carbohydrates, protein, fat, vitamins, minerals & also help in building tissue is called Ahara (Food). The path which helps in the transformation of substances is called Srotas (Channels) and precisely Srotas has 3 basic characters Avakasha (Space), Sravana(Flow) and Parinamam Aapadhyamananam Dhatunam Abhivahini (Transformation). Andhyatva (Blindness) is an important and interesting symptom among Sushruthokta Annavaha Srotoviddha lakshanas (Injured GIT symptoms). The logical understanding of the same even without sophisticated equipments is incredible and praiseworthy. So here an attempt will be made to analyze the pathology of blindness due to consumption of Annavaha Srotodusti Nidana(causes for GIT diseases) considering Vitamin A deficiency which leads to Keratomalacia further causing blindness as its complication.
