Photon structure function has been a solid platform in testing strong interaction along with nucleon structure function. Strong Interaction has the property that it is perturbatively calculable at high energy but becomes non-perturbative at low energy. This nature makes QCD hard to handle theoretically in factorizing these two regions. The fundamental dimensional parameter, so called the QCD scale parameter, $\lms$, is one of key players to factorize two energy regions. In this work, we extract the QCD scale parameter from the photon structure function by separating the perturbative QCD and non-perturbative QCD. In the process we use the vector dominance model for the non-perturbative energy region of the photon structure function.
