Abstract The eye serves as a window to systemic health, reflecting both wellness and disease. Often, ocular manifestations are the first indicators of underlying systemic conditions. One such disease of importance is Abhishyanda, a Sarvagata Roga considered in particular as a localized eye condition or that which is involving the Urdhwajatrugata Srotas but the pathology can pervade throughout the body. The term 'Abhishyanda' or 'Syanda' in various contexts of the Samhitas signifies 'Sroto Syandana'—discharge through bodily channels. Classical Ayurvedic texts also highlights its association with conditions such as Jwara, Prameha, Ardita, Kushtha and Rajayakshma, where ocular symptoms like redness, discharge, and irritation are described which signifies systemic involvement. The disease Abhishyanda which can be correlated to the inflammatory disorders of the eye has its manifestation due to various conditions such as metabolic, autoimmune or infectious conditions. This paper explores the systemic associations of Abhishyanda, integrating insights from both Ayurveda and modern medicine. By correlating ancient Ayurvedic concepts with contemporary clinical findings, we can uncover meaningful connections between ocular inflammation and broader systemic conditions. This approach not only enriches our understanding of disease pathogenesis but also supports the development of more timely diagnostic and treatment strategies.
