Abstract

Ayurveda defines Indriyas as sense organs that acquire knowledge for the Atma. According to Acharya Charaka, Indriyas are instruments that distinguish between living and non-living things. Because the Panch Mahabhuta (five elements) contributed to the composition of Indriyas, different sense organs function differently. Indriyas exist in minute form within their Indriya adhishtanas (anatomical organs) and perform the function of perceiving senses and communicating that perception to the brain or body organs for further stimulation. According to modern science, the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and skin are sensory organs that perceive vision, sound, smell, taste, and touch, respectively. The Doshic preponderance and Mahabhuta found in Indriyas are related to their distinct physiological functions, and the vitiation of linked Doshas can alter the functioning of Indriyas. Nayana is Pradhana among all Indriyas. It needs to be safeguarded with extra thought and care. Major eye problems are estimated to affect 27 million people worldwide, with 7 million in India. The majority of ocular problems are triggered through poor eye care in contemporary culture. If the primary causes are not addressed, this may give rise to more severe disease. Stopping the causative element is a treatment itself. Ayurvedic diagnosis relies on two important elements, namely Roga Pariksha and Rogi Pariksha. Among these, Roga pariksha provides us with extensive information on a disease, from its aetiology through its manifestation. The five fundamental parts of Roga Pariksha are called Nidana Panchakas and are Purvarupa, Rupa, Samprapti, and Upashaya. Nidana—the most important component—not only provides awareness of causative causes but also aids in treatment by avoiding them. Since it is better to prevent eye diseases than to treat them, here is an attempt to evaluate Netraroga Nidanas (causative elements of eye disorders) to present living style and make it easier for everyone to comprehend and adjust in lifestyle

Keywords: Netra roga, Nidana Panchaka, Nidana, Eye care
