论述说:目昏暗这种疾病的症状主要有两种情况。肝气不足则血液虚弱,肾气不足则精髓衰少。血液虚弱、精髓衰少,不能滋养眼睛,逐渐导致视力昏暗。另外,《病源》中说,眼睛是五脏六腑阴阳之气汇聚之处,这些气都上注于目。如果气血充实,则视物清晰分明;如果气血虚竭,则风邪容易侵袭,因此导致眼睛昏暗不明。
治疗因患伤寒后,早起余热未消,身体虚弱尚未恢复,又多吃热性食物,从而导致眼疾,或者看见黑花飞舞,瞳孔散大,病情发作间歇不定,眼睑发红流泪,瘀肉肿胀,适宜服用熊胆丸方。

Commentary states: The symptoms of dim vision (Mù hūn àn) mainly present in two aspects. When Liver Qi is deficient, blood becomes weak; when Kidney Qi is deficient, essence declines. Weak blood and declining essence fail to nourish the eyes, gradually leading to dim vision. Furthermore, *Bing Yuan* (Source of Diseases) states that the eyes are the convergence point of Yin and Yang Qi from the Five Zang and Six Fu organs, all of which ascend to the eyes. If Qi and blood are sufficient, vision is clear and distinct; if Qi and blood are exhausted, Wind pathogen easily invades, causing dim and unclear vision.
For treating eye diseases caused by lingering residual heat after contracting Cold Damage (Shāng Hán), rising early while the body is still weak and un-recovered, and consuming excessive hot-natured foods, resulting in seeing black spots floating in vision, dilated pupils, intermittent attacks, red eyelids with tearing, and swelling of fleshy growths, it is appropriate to take Xiongdan Wan (Bear Gallbladder Pill).
