ABSTRACT

According to Acharya Charaka if a person is endowed with all other sensory faculties, strength, beautiful, appearance etc. but without the eyes the world seems useless. So to protect the eyes is not only a necessity but also a responsibility of every individual. Subconjunctival haemorrhage is a common benign condition of the eye that has characteristic features, such as the painless acute appearance of a sharply circumscribed redness of bleeding underneath the conjunctiva in the absence of discharge, and inflammation in contagious areas. According to Ayurveda Subconjunctival haemorrhage can be correlated with Arjuna. A female patient came to the OPD of Mansarovar Ayurvedic Medical College, Hospital & Research Centre, Bhopal with chief complaint of painless red spot over white surface of right eye and history of trauma in right eye. So taking these things into consideration Triphala ghrita Ashchyotan followed by Yashtimadhu, Haridra Kashaya Parishek and Mahamanjishthadi Kwath orally was prescribed.
