ABSTRACT
Mamsaja Granthi, a localized glandular swelling, often presents clinically as a cystic lesion and is commonly associated with vitiation of Kapha and Rakta, Mamsa, Meda Dhatus along with local tissue overgrowth. Agnikarma, an ancient para-surgical procedure described in Ayurveda, is indicated in firm, localized swellings and has been found to be effective in cystic lesions. This paper presents a single case study of a 45-year-old female patient with a persistent cyst in the right upper eyelid, successfully managed with Agnikarma. Marked improvement was observed with complete resolution of the lesion within 21 days and no recurrence even after 14 months. The case demonstrates the potential of Agnikarma as a minimally invasive, cost-effective approach for such ophthalmic cystic swellings.
