Cosmeceuticals is a cosmetic product with bio active ingredient proposed to have medical or drug like ben-efits. Cosmeceuticals are safe for long term use and promotes beauty, health and wellness with natural in-gredients. We get lots of reference about cosmeceuticals mentioned in Ayurveda in the form of Rasayana, Varnya, Vrana ropana, Twachya, Sophahara, Keshya and Chakshushya. Changing lifestyles is invariably cause metabolic change that influence the functioning of eye are termed as Achakshushya in Ayurveda and leads to dry eyes, myopia, cataract, diabetic retinopathy etc like disorders. In alternative medicines there is no permanent cure or remedy for above disorders. Chakshushya drugs especially capable of acting in oph-thalmic tissues to bring the Doshas back to their normal path. Chakradutta explained Chakshushya Varga which contain drugs like Triphala, Gogrita, Yava, Madhu, Satavari, Mudga etc. and Padabhyanga like daily regimen too. By this we can understand that to have better healthy life and vision Swasthavritta Charya and intake of Chakshushya drugs are inevitable.

Abstract Eleven small ponds, lined with polyethylene, were used to assess the consequences of applications of *DursbanR at 0.004, 0.030, 0.100 and 1.000 ppm and AbateR at 0.025 and 0.100 ppm active ingredient. The treated ponds showed a more pronounced long-term increase in pH and dissolved oxygen and decreasing total and dissolved carbon dioxide in comparison with untreated ponds. Algal blooms were of longer duration in treated ponds than in controls. Total photosynthetic productivity was higher in treated ponds but bacterial numbers did not change significantly. Photosynthetic productivity was estimated by following the changes in total carbon dioxide.

AbstractThis study aimed to investigate whether long-term HbA1c variability is associated with the development and progression of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in subjects with type 2 diabetes. We retrospectively reviewed 434 type 2 diabetes subjects without DR who underwent regular DR screening. We reviewed fundus findings, collected HbA1c levels, and calculated the coefficient of variation (CV) and average real variability (ARV) of each subject’s HbA1c level. DR was developed in 55 subjects and progressed to moderate nonproliferative DR or worse DR in 23 subjects. On Cox proportional hazards regression analysis, HbA1c ARV, but not HbA1c CV, was significantly associated with DR development. However, the association between HbA1c variability and the DR progression rate to moderate nonproliferative DR or worse DR was not significant. The inter-visit HbA1c difference value on consecutive examination predicted DR development well and more careful screening for DR is needed for those with an absolute value change of 2.05%, an absolute increase of 1.75%, and an absolute decrease of 1.45% in HbA1c levels on consecutive examination. These results indicate that long-term glucose variability measured by HbA1c ARV might be an independent risk factor for DR development in addition to the mean HbA1c level in early diabetic subjects.

Background: The cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes catalyze the production of pain mediators like prostaglandins (PGs) and leukotrienes (LTs) respectively from arachidonic acid. Introduction: The COX and LOX enzyme modulators are responsible for the major PGs and LTs mediated complications like asthma, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, neuropathy and cardiovascular syndromes (CVS). Many synthetic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) used in the treatment have serious side effects like nausea, vomiting, hyperacidity, gastrointestinal ulcers, CVS, etc. Methods: The natural inhibitors of pain mediators have great acceptance worldwide due to fewer side effects on long-term uses. The present review is an extensive study of the advantages of plant-based vs synthetic inhibitors. Results: These natural COX and LOX inhibitors control inflammatory response without causing side-effect-related complicacy. Conclusion: Therefore, the natural COX and LOX inhibitors may be used as alternative medicines for the management of pain and inflammation due to their less toxicity and resistivity.
