The recipe, as shared by Ramdev, includes one spoon of white onion juice, one spoon of ginger juice, and three spoons of Patanjali’s pure honey.

These ingredients, when mixed, form the eyedrop. Ramdev claimed that putting this preparation in the eyes could be beneficial for people with glaucoma.

He also revealed the story behind this remedy. According to him, the technique is not new but inspired by an old yogi from Bengal. He used to live near the banks of the Ganga. This knowledge was then passed down to his disciples and later reached him.

Ramdev said he is simply sharing this wisdom with the world.

For those unfamiliar, glaucoma is a serious eye disease often described as the “silent thief of sight.” The reason is that vision loss happens very slowly, without pain or warning. And, many people don’t even realize they have it until the damage is already advanced.

Glaucoma affects the optic nerve, the part of the eye that carries images to the brain. A major cause is increased pressure inside the eye, also known as intraocular pressure. This condition is more common in older people, especially those above 40. But family history, certain illnesses, and even long-term use of some medicines can increase the risk.
