Those persons who have chicken pox in childhood, have herpes zoster later in life ( whenever the immunity is low).
This demands in clinic examination of the eye. Please consult as soon as possible.
Since this is a serious problem, please take advice of an allopathic Dr.

Please consult local ophthalmologist for complete eye examination. It's difficult to comment on anything without examining your eyes. Also for ayurvedic treatment, you need to consult Ayurvedic specialist.
