Abstract INTRODUCTION :-Kacha is one among the Dristigata roga of Netraroga explained in Ayurvedic classics. When the dosas gets localized in the 3rd Patala of netra, the person gets the disease called Kacha, in which he sees objects present above but not below, objects seen are covered with thin cloth, area of vision assumes the colour related to dosha and gradually the vision diminishes. Immature cataract is charecterized by a variable amount of opacification, present in certain areas of lens. It is a vision impairing disease charecterised by gradual progressive loss of vision. It is one of the leading causes of preventable blindness.MATERIALS AND METHODS:- A patient with presenting symptoms of kaphaja kacha or immature cataract was selected from the Shalakya Tantra OPD of ITRA Jamnagar. Both internal as well as local treatments were given to the patient.RESULTS:- Patient showed marked improvement in the Visual Acuity both aided and unaided after 3 months of treatment.DISCUSSION:-Anjana is one among the Netra Kriyakalpas in which medicine is applied as collyrium in the eyes. It is administered only when the Amavastha is removed and the dosas are localised only on the eyes. In this case Anjana played a major role in reducing and controlling the progress of immature cataract or Kacha.
