In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Saikumar Gandapodi, Board-Certified Doctor of Oriental Medicine, Ayurvedic practitioner, and Founder and Director of Netra Eye Institute, to explore the tradition of Ayurvedic ophthalmology. We trace its classical roots in texts like the Sushruta Samhita, and then hold those ideas up against the standards of modern evidence.

Dr. Gandapodi explains how ancient concepts such as the doshas and Rakta Dhatu can serve as interpretive frameworks rather than literal biology, and how a handful of Ayurvedic botanicals are now being studied for oxidative stress and ocular surface health. He is candid about the limits of the current evidence, distinguishing laboratory findings from animal work from real human clinical trials.

We also discuss Netra Restoration Therapy, an integrative approach he frames strictly as a complement to standard ophthalmic care, and what an educated patient should take away when weighing tradition against trials.
