膏粱之变,是由于滋味过于浓厚所致。气血都旺盛,是因为禀赋浓厚。亢盛的阳气向上炎升,是因为阴气不能制约它。邪气侵入经络,体内没有抵御的力量。因此产生变化,因变化而产生热。
热就是火,火的性质是炎上。足厥阴肝经属木,木生火,母(木)孕育子(火),子(火)以淫胜之势反克母(木),祸患由此发生并导致反克。而肝开窍于目,所以肝受到克制,眼睛也就生病了。这种病症表现为眼屎多、眼睑紧绷干涩、红血丝贯穿眼球。如果伴有脏腑秘结不通的为重证,重证用芍药清肝散主治,或用通气利中丸主治。如果眼屎多、眼睑紧绷干涩、红血丝贯穿眼球,但脏腑不秘结不通的为轻证,轻证减去大黄和芒硝,用芍药清肝散主治,或用黄连天花粉丸主治。若症状稍轻,服用通气利中丸。眼眶溃烂的,内服上述药物,外用黄连炉甘石散涂抹溃烂处,同时配合点眼春雪膏、龙脑黄连膏。鼻用碧云散,以攻除淫热。这是治疗淫热反克的方法。如果不是膏粱之变,不是气血俱盛,不是亢阳上炎,不是邪入经络,不要使用这些方法。如果使用,寒凉药会损伤胃气,导致胃气升降失常,反而受害。治病的人不可不明白这一点。唉,要审慎啊。
芍药清肝散(治疗眼屎多、眼睑紧绷干涩、羞明怕光、红血丝贯穿眼球、脏腑秘结。)
白术、石膏、真川芎、防风、桔梗、滑石(各三钱),荆芥穗、前胡、芍药、甘草、苏薄荷(各二钱半),柴胡、黄芩、知母、山栀仁、羌活(各二钱),芒硝(三钱半),大黄(四钱)。
共研为末。每次服用三钱,用水两钟,煎至一钟,饭后趁热服用。
上方是为治疗淫热反克而设立的。对于风热不受制约的病证,热甚且大便结者,权宜使用。因为这是苦寒药,苦寒伤胃,所以先用白术的甘温、甘草的甘平来生发胃气作为君药;其次用川芎、防风、荆芥、桔梗、羌活的辛温,升发清利作为臣药;又用芍药、前胡、柴胡的微苦,薄荷、山栀、黄芩的微苦寒,既引导又攻伐作为佐药;最后用知母、滑石、石膏的苦寒,大黄、芒硝的大苦寒,祛除驱逐淫热作为使药。只有大便不结的,减去大黄和芒硝。这是逆则攻之的治疗方法。大热服用的,属于反治法。
通气利中丸(主治证候同上)
锦纹大黄(二两半)、滑石(取末另入)、牵牛(取末)、黄芩(各一两半)、云头白术(一两)、白芷、羌活(各五钱)。
除了滑石和牵牛另外研成极细末外,其余合为细末,加入上面的药末和匀,滴水为丸,如梧桐子大。每次服用三十丸,加至一百丸,食后临睡前用茶清送下。
上方以白术的苦甘温,清除胃中热作为君药;白芷辛温解利,羌活苦甘平微温,通利诸关节作为臣药;黄芩微苦寒,治疗热滋化,滑石甘寒,滑利小便,以分清浊作为佐药;大黄苦寒,通大便泻诸实热,牵牛辛苦寒,利大便除风毒作为使药。这是逆攻的方法。对于风热不受制约的病证,热甚而大便结的,也可以兼用。然而牵牛有毒,非神农尝百草时的良药,现在与大黄并用,取其性猛烈而快速。大体上不宜久用,久用损伤元气,这是权宜使用的药物。根据虚实加减用量。
黄连天花粉丸(主治同上)
黄连、菊花、苏薄荷、川芎(各一两),黄柏(六两),连翘(二两),天花粉、黄芩、栀子(各四两)。
上面药物研为细末,滴水成丸,如梧桐子大。每次服用五十丸,加至一百丸,食后临睡前用茶清送下。
上方是为淫热反克、脏腑不秘结的情况设立的。对于风热不受制约的病证,稍微热的也可以服用。以黄连、天花粉的苦寒作为君药,菊花之苦甘平作为臣药,川芎之辛温、薄荷之辛苦作为佐药,连翘、黄芩之苦微寒、黄柏、栀子之苦寒作为使药。合用则能除热清利,治疗目赤肿痛。
黄连炉甘石散(治疗眼眶破烂、畏日羞明,其余治疗同上。)
炉甘石(一斤)、黄连(四两)、龙脑(适量加入)。
先将炉甘石放在大火中烧至通红,另外准备一盆水,用瓷器盛贮,将黄连放入水中,然后将烧红的炉甘石淬火七次,接着将盛有水的瓷器放在太阳下晒干,然后与黄连一起研为细末。欲用时,取一二钱再研极细,随时加入龙脑。每次用少许,井花水调成稠糊状,临睡前用筷子头蘸取敷在破烂处。如果不破烂,点入眼内眦角尤其好,不宜使药进入眼内深处。
上方以炉甘石收湿除烂作为君药,黄连苦寒作为佐药,龙脑除热毒作为使药。凡是目病都可以使用,适合的固然可以,即使不适合的也无害。如果是奇经受邪的病证,酌情加入朴硝泡汤,滴在眼瘀肉黄赤脂上。
龙脑黄连膏(治疗眼中红血丝,像流热炙人一样。)
川黄连(八两)、片脑(二钱)。
上面将黄连去芦,刮去黑皮,洗净锉碎,用三大碗水,贮于瓷器内煎煮,随即放入黄连在内煎煮,用文武火熬,减少大半碗,滤去渣滓,用渣滓再次煎煮,滤净澄清,倒入薄瓷器中存放,隔水蒸炖成膏,约半盏左右,再复滤净,等待几天,去除火毒。临时旋加片脑,以一钱为标准,用时酌量加入,不拘时间,用少许点入眼大眦内。另一方法,加熊胆、蚺蛇胆各少许,更妙。
上方,以黄连治目痛解诸毒作为君药,龙脑去热毒作为臣药,乃君臣药也。凡是目痛的,都适宜使用。
鼻碧云散(治疗肿胀红赤、昏暗羞明、瘾涩疼痛、风热鼻塞、脑酸、外翳攀睛、眵泪稠粘。)

上方以鹅不食草解毒作为君药,青黛去热作为佐药,川芎大辛,除邪破留作为使药,是升透的药物。大体上如同开锅盖的方法,常要使邪毒不闭,令其有出路。然而力少而锐,随喷随效,宜常用来聚集其力。凡是目病,都可以使用。
蕤仁春雪膏(治疗肝经不足,内受风热,上攻头目,昏暗痒痛,瘾涩难开,昏眩赤肿,怕日羞明,不能远视,迎风有泪,多见黑花。)

上方以龙脑除热毒作为君药,生蜜解毒和百药作为臣药,蕤仁去暴热治目痛作为使药。此药与黄连炉甘石散、龙脑黄连膏并用。
Variations from rich and greasy food are caused by excessive richness of taste. Qi and blood are both abundant due to a robust constitution. Hyperactive Yang flares upward because Yin fails to restrain it. Pathogenic factors enter the meridians, and there is no internal defense. Consequently, changes occur, and heat arises from these changes.
Heat is Fire; the nature of Fire is to flare upward. The Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian belongs to Wood; Wood generates Fire. The Mother (Wood) nourishes the Child (Fire). When the Child (Fire) overcomes excessively, it counter-attacks the Mother (Wood), leading to pathological counter-restriction. Since the Liver opens into the eyes, when the Liver is restricted, the eyes also become diseased. Symptoms include excessive eye discharge, tightness and dryness, and red vessels traversing the eyeball. If accompanied by constipation of the Zang-Fu organs, it is a severe case, treated primarily with Shaoyao Qinggan San (Peony Decoction to Clear the Liver) or Tongqi Lizhong Wan (Pill to Unblock Qi and Benefit the Middle). If there is excessive eye discharge, tightness, dryness, and red vessels traversing the eyeball, but without constipation of the Zang-Fu organs, it is a mild case. For mild cases, reduce Dahuang (Rhubarb Rhizome) and Mangxiao (Mirabilite), treat primarily with Shaoyao Qinggan San (Peony Decoction to Clear the Liver) or Huanglian Tianhuafen Wan (Coptis and Trichosanthes Pill). If symptoms are slightly less severe, take Tongqi Lizhong Wan (Pill to Unblock Qi and Benefit the Middle). For ulceration of the eye sockets, take the above medicines internally, and externally apply Huanglian Luguanshi San (Coptis and Calamine Powder) to the ulcerated areas. Additionally, use Dianyan Chunxue Gao (Eye-Dropping Spring Snow Ointment) and Longnao Huanglian Gao (Borneol and Coptis Ointment) for eye application. Use Biyun San (Blue Cloud Powder) nasally to attack the exuberant heat. This is the method for treating exuberant heat counter-restriction. Do not use this if it is not a variation from rich and greasy food, if Qi and blood are not both abundant, if hyperactive Yang does not flare upward, and if pathogenic factors have not entered the meridians. Using this will damage the Stomach with cold-cooling herbs, causing the Stomach Qi to fail in ascending and descending, resulting in further harm. Physicians must understand this clearly. Alas, exercise caution.
Shaoyao Qinggan San (Peony Decoction to Clear the Liver): Treats excessive eye discharge, tightness and dryness, photophobia, red vessels traversing the eyeball, and constipation of the Zang-Fu organs.
Ingredients: Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma), Shigao (Gypsum Fibrosum), Zhen Chuanxiong (Ligusticum Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), Jiegeng (Platycodonis Radix), Huashi (Talcum) (each 3 qian); Jingjiesui (Schizonepetae Spica), Qianhu (Peucedani Radix), Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix Alba), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Su Bohe (Menthae Haplocalycis Herba) (each 2.5 qian); Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix), Zhimu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma), Shanzhiren (Gardeniae Semen) (each 2 qian); Mangxiao (Mirabilite) (3.5 qian), Dahuang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma) (4 qian).
Grind all into powder. Take 3 qian per dose, decoct with two zhong of water until one zhong remains, and take warm after meals.
The above formula was created to treat exuberant heat counter-restriction. It is used prudently for conditions where Wind-Heat is uncontrolled and heat is severe with constipation. As it consists of bitter-cold herbs that can damage the Stomach, Baizhu's sweet-warm nature and Gancao's sweet-neutral nature are used as Sovereign herbs to generate Stomach Qi. Next, Chuanxiong, Fangfeng, Jingjie, Jiegeng, and Qianghuo's acrid-warm nature serves as Minister herbs to ascend and clear. Shaoyao, Qianhu, and Chaihu's slightly bitter nature, along with Bohe, Shanzhi, and Huangqin's slightly bitter-cold nature, act as Assistant herbs to guide and attack. Finally, Zhimu, Huashi, and Shigao's bitter-cold nature, along with Dahuang and Mangxiao's greatly bitter-cold nature, serve as Envoy herbs to expel exuberant heat. For those without constipation, reduce Dahuang and Mangxiao. This is the treatment method of attacking against the reverse flow. Taking it hot is a contrary treatment method.
Tongqi Lizhong Wan (Pill to Unblock Qi and Benefit the Middle): Treats the same syndromes as above.
Ingredients: Jinwen Dahuang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma) (2.5 liang), Huashi (Talcum) (take powder separately), Qianniu (Pharbitidis Semen) (take powder), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix) (each 1.5 liang), Yuntou Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) (1 liang), Baizhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix), Qianghuo (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix) (each 5 qian).
Except for Huashi and Qianniu which are ground separately into fine powder, mix the rest into a fine powder, combine evenly with the above powders, add drops of water to form pills the size of tung seeds. Take 30 pills per dose, increasing up to 100 pills, taken after meals and before sleep with tea liquor.
In the above formula, Baizhu's bitter-sweet-warm nature clears Stomach heat as Sovereign. Baizhi's acrid-warm nature resolves and benefits, and Qianghuo's bitter-sweet-neutral and slightly warm nature unblocks and benefits various joints as Ministers. Huangqin's slightly bitter-cold nature treats heat transformation, and Huashi's sweet-cold nature lubricates urination to clarify turbidity as Assistants. Dahuang's bitter-cold nature unblocks bowels and purges excess heat, and Qianniu's bitter-acrid-cold nature unblocks bowels and removes wind-toxin as Envoys. This is a method of reverse attack. For conditions where Wind-Heat is uncontrolled and heat is severe with constipation, it can also be used concurrently. However, Qianniu is toxic and not an ideal herb; combined with Dahuang here, its fierce and rapid action is utilized. Generally, it should not be used long-term as it damages Yuan Qi; it is a prudent medicine. Adjust dosage according to deficiency or excess.
Huanglian Tianhuafen Wan (Coptis and Trichosanthes Pill): Treats the same as above.
Ingredients: Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma), Juhua (Chrysanthemi Flos), Su Bohe (Menthae Haplocalycis Herba), Chuanxiong (Ligusticum Chuanxiong Rhizoma) (each 1 liang), Huangbai (Phellodendri Cortex) (6 liang), Lianqiao (Forsythiae Fructus) (2 liang), Tianhuafen (Trichosanthis Radix), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix), Zhizi (Gardeniae Fructus) (each 4 liang).
Grind all into fine powder, add drops of water to form pills the size of tung seeds. Take 50 pills per dose, increasing up to 100 pills, taken after meals and before sleep with tea liquor.
The above formula is for exuberant heat counter-restriction without Zang-Fu constipation. For Wind-Heat uncontrolled conditions with slight heat, it can also be taken. Huanglian and Tianhuafen's bitter-cold nature serves as Sovereign; Juhua's bitter-sweet-neutral nature as Minister; Chuanxiong's acrid-warm nature and Bohe's bitter-acrid nature as Assistants; Lianqiao, Huangqin's bitter-slightly-cold nature, and Huangbai, Zhizi's bitter-cold nature as Envoys. Combined, they clear heat and benefit, treating redness, swelling, and pain of the eyes.
Huanglian Luguanshi San (Coptis and Calamine Powder): Treats ulceration of eye sockets, photophobia, and other symptoms as above.
Ingredients: Luguanshi (Calamina) (1 jin), Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma) (4 liang), Longnao (Borneolum Syntheticum) (appropriate amount).
First, place Luguanshi in a strong fire until red-hot. Prepare a basin of water in a porcelain vessel, submerge Huanglian in the water, then quench the red-hot Luguanshi seven times. Place the porcelain vessel in the sun to dry. Then grind together with Huanglian into a fine powder. When using, take 1-2 qian and grind again into extreme fineness, adding Longnao as needed. Mix a small amount with well water into a thick paste. Before sleep, dip the tip of a chopstick and apply to ulcerated areas. If not ulcerated, applying to the inner canthus is best; avoid entering the interior of the eye.
In the above formula, Luguanshi absorbs dampness and heals ulcers as Sovereign; Huanglian's bitter-cold nature as Assistant; Longnao removes heat-toxin as Envoy. It can be used for all eye diseases; suitable ones benefit, unsuitable ones are harmless. For diseases of the extraordinary vessels with pathogenic factors, add Poxiao (Natrii Sulfas) dissolved in water to drip on yellow-red lipid on the cornea.
Longnao Huanglian Gao (Borneol and Coptis Ointment): Treats red vessels in the eyes, feeling like flowing heat burning the person.
Ingredients: Chuan Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma) (8 liang), Pian Nao (Borneolum Syntheticum) (2 qian).
Remove the rhizome base of Huanglian, scrape off black skin, wash, and chop finely. Add three large bowls of water to a porcelain vessel and boil. Add Huanglian and decoct using medium-low heat until reduced by half a bowl. Filter out dregs, re-boil the dregs, filter cleanly and clarify. Store in a thin porcelain vessel, steam in a double boiler until it becomes an ointment, about half a cup. Filter cleanly again, wait several days to remove "fire toxicity". Add Pian Nao just before use, standardizing at 1 qian, adjusting as needed. Apply a small amount to the outer canthus anytime. Another method: add Xiongdan (Ursi Fel) and Ranshedan (Bungarorum Fel) each in small amounts for better effect.
In the above formula, Huanglian treats eye pain and resolves toxins as Sovereign; Longnao removes heat-toxin as Minister. These are Sovereign and Minister herbs. All cases of eye pain are suitable for use.
Bi Yun San (Blue Cloud Powder): Treats swelling, redness, dimness, photophobia, itching, dryness, pain, Wind-Heat nasal congestion, sourness in the brain, external pterygium growing onto the cornea, and sticky eye discharge and tears.
Ingredients: E Bushi Cao (Centipedae Herba) (2 qian), Qingdai (Indigo Naturalis), Zhen Chuanxiong (Ligusticum Chuanxiong Rhizoma) (each 1 qian).
Grind into fine powder. Use an amount the size of a soybean. First, fill the mouth with water, then spray into the nose until tears flow. Time is not restricted.
In the above formula, E Bushi Cao resolves toxins as Sovereign; Qingdai removes heat as Assistant; Chuanxiong's great acridity dispels evil and breaks stagnation as Envoy. It is an ascending and penetrating herb. Generally, it acts like opening a pot lid, ensuring pathogenic toxins do not close in but have an exit. Its power is small but sharp, effective immediately upon use. It is suitable for gathering force. It can be used for all eye diseases.
Rui Ren Chunxue Gao (Vitamin A Ointment / Prunus Glandulosa Spring Snow Ointment): Treats Liver Meridian deficiency, internal Wind-Heat invasion, attacking head and eyes, dimness, itching, pain, difficulty opening eyes, dizziness, redness and swelling, photophobia, inability to see far, tearing in wind, and frequent appearance of black spots.
Ingredients: Rui Ren (Pruni Glandulosae Semen) (skin, shell, and heart removed, oil pressed out, 4 qian), Longnao (Borneolum Syntheticum) (5 fen, ground).
First grind Rui Ren finely, mix with Longnao evenly. Add 1.2 qian of fresh, high-quality Sichuan white honey, grind and mix evenly. Dip the tip of a hairpin and apply to the inner canthus.
In the above formula, Longnao removes heat-toxin as Sovereign; raw honey resolves toxins and harmonizes hundred herbs as Minister; Rui Ren removes sudden heat and treats eye pain as Envoy. This medicine is used concurrently with Huanglian Luguanshi San and Longnao Huanglian Gao.
