Dṛṣṭiprasāda (दृष्टिप्रसाद) refers to “brightness of look”, and is mentioned in verse 2.8 of the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā (Sūtrasthāna) by Vāgbhaṭa.—The abstract nouns dṛṣṭiprasāda (“brightness of look”), puṣṭi (“plumpness”), and sutvaktva (“beauty of skin”) have been turned into their concrete pendants mig gsal (“bright eyes”), lus rgyas (“plump body”), and pags ’jam (“smooth skin”), whereas the pregnant nouns āyus (“long life”) and svapna (“sound sleep”) have been paraphrased by thse ’phel (“growing life”) and gñid oṅ (“oncoming sleep”). With regard to puṣṭi it may be noted that embonpoint is considered a mark of beauty; cf. Carakasaṃhitā 15.89.

Even the kings of gods bow to the feet of those men who have acquired a drop of the grace of seeing you (dṛṣṭiprasāda-lava-lābhavat). Kings of all the rich lands extending to the four oceans [bow to them] all the more, illuminating their footrests with the studded jewels of their elevated crowns”.
