Ocular allergy represents one of the most common conditions encountered by allergists and ophthalmologists. Allergic conjunctivitis is often underdiagnosed and consequently undertreated. Allergic diseases have dramatically increased in the last decades . Seasonal allergic conjunctivitis (SAC) and perennial allergic conjunctivitis (PAC) are the most common forms of ocular allergies. Estimates vary, but these types of allergy are said to affect at least 15–20% of the population .%. Due to increased incidence of allergens world-wide and environmental pollution, it stands to be an unsolved mystery in modern medicine. Hypersensitivity of the body's immune system to these allergens is the main etiological factor and also it is common in people who have other signs of allergic diseases, such as asthma, eczema, hay fever and rhinitis .As per Ayurveda it can be correlated with Abhishyanda on the basis of symptoms like Toda (Pricking pain), Sangharsha (foreign body sensation), Achchasruta (watering), Alpa Shopha (mild chemosis), Vishushka Bhava (feeling of dryness), Parushya (dryness), Alpa Dushika (discharge), Kandu (itching) etc. Vata is the main culprit and other Doshas are associated with this entity. In these studies, Mridwikadi Kashaya, Haridrakhanda, were used as treatment. These treatment modalities showed good results in relieving the signs and symptoms of disease.
