As the COVID-19 epidemic continues, when it comes to studying at home or working from home, there are no escape devices. They serve as an important link in human life and learning and the working environment. As with any useful tool, certain digital devices can sometimes be "very good." The COVID-19 epidemic has led to increased use of digital devices, which poses a greater risk of developing digital eye symptoms. Eye care professionals should educate patients about screen time limitations and digital eye signage management, leading to the challenge of annual visual programs. The effects of ocular surface health and circadian rhythm abnormalities associated with ocular disease such as computer vision syndrome, dry eyes, astigmatism, near vision, muscle mass etc. are increasing. In this covid epidemic 19 the widespread use of Herbal medicine and the use of Ayurvedic medicine increases when conventional medicine does not work in the treatment of diseases. Ayurveda is considered to be one of the best remedies for disease and lead to a healthy lifestyle in ancient India. Trataka treatments and head rubbing are also a good exercise for eye health. Oncological diseases ayurvedic remedies such as Haritaki, Malaki, Vibhitaki, Alovera are widely used. Triphala is a powerful Ayurvedic tonic containing three traditional fruits that have long been used to treat various health conditions of ocular disease. This is a traditional eye procedure and is very easy to keep the eyes healthy. Ginkgo biloba is used in traditional medicine recommended to enhance vision.
