Title

Abstract

Background: The precorneal tear film is a thin layer, about 2–5.5 μm thick, which overlays the corneal and conjunctival epithelium. It functions to lubricate and protect the corneal and eyelid interface from environmental and immunological factors as well as provide an optical medium. When compromised (quantitatively or qualitatively) lead to Shushkakshipaka (dry eye syndrome) with various ocular discomfort symptoms and ultimately the patient may land in corneal blindness. Shushkakshipaka (Sarvagatroga) mentioned in Ayurveda resembles with dry eye syndrome in which Vata-Pitta/Rakta vitiation is there having symptoms like Gharsha(foreign body sensation) ,Toda, Bheda(pricking and piercing pain),Ruksha Darunavartma (Dryness of lids), Krichronmeelana Nimeelanam(difficulty in opening and closing eyes), Vishuskatwam(dryness in eyes), Seetecha( desire for cold)and Paka (Ulceration) Materials And Method: This is the case report of 55 year old Male who approached Shalakya Tantra OPD, complaining of foreign body sensation ,burning sensation and dryness and ocular discomfort on bilateral eyes since 2 months.
