Abstract	Pterygium is a common ocular surface disorder characterized by a triangular fibrovascular growth of conjunctival tissue extending onto the cornea, often associated with chronic exposure to ultraviolet radiation, dust, wind and environmental irritants. It presents with symptoms such as redness, irritation, foreign body sensation and may lead to visual disturbance in advanced stages. In Ayurveda, a comparable condition is described as Arma, classified under Shukla rogas and caused by vitiation of Tridoshas resulting in abnormal tissue growth. Despite surgical management being the mainstay in modern medicine, recurrence remains a concern, emphasizing the need for alternative and supportive therapeutic approaches.
