Eyes hold a unique position among all the sense organs. Eyes are the most valuable gift of God to the living beings. Primary importance has been given for the protection of eyes by ancient Indian scholar because without eyes whole world is full of darkness. Acharya Vagbhata says that as long as there is desire for liv-ing, so long all efforts should be made always by men to protect the eyes; because for the blind man, night and day are the same; all the things of this world are useless though he might have plenty of money. In this present time, the human lifestyle has been radically changed.

As the passage of time, science become more developed more and more vehicle develop for liveli-hood. These days, no longer he requires hunting in the forests. Rather, he has to track the internet on com-puter in a closed compartment. With over 560 million internet users, India is the second largest online mar-ket1 in the world, ranked only behind China. By 2021, there will be over 600 million internet users in India. But in modern system of medicine there is no permanent cure except temporary relieve by artificial tears. Ayurveda is good treatment of the choice.
