The effects on the retina are usually self-limited, although some people are left with permanent vision loss due to progressive and irreversible photoreceptor damage or retinal pigment epithelium atrophy. There have been a number of interventions used in CSC, including laser treatment, photodynamic therapy (PDT), intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agents, and sub threshold lasers. In <em>Ayurveda</em> the signs and symptoms of this can be considered under 1<sup>st</sup> and 2<sup>nd</sup><em> Patalagata Timira </em>which described under<em> Dristi gata Roga </em>in all classics of Ayurveda<em>. </em>Pathogenesis suggests involvement of <em>Pitta </em>and<em> Kapha dosha </em>mainly. Therefore a treatment attempt was planned in the lines of <em>Pitta Kapha </em><em>shamana</em>. After the treatment the quality of vision had been showed significant improvement. Foveal thickness and macular volume in OCT findings also showed significant reduction. The present paper discusses a case study of CSC and its Ayurveda Treatment.</p&gt;}, number={Suppl1}, journal={International Journal of Ayurveda and Pharma Research}, author={Panigrahi, Meera and Naveen B S and Ajoy Viswam and Krishnan Namboodiri G}, year={2021}, month={Nov.}, pages={63-66} }
