足太阳经是眼睛的上眼睑（目上纲）。足阳明经是眼睛的下眼睑（目下纲）。若受热邪影响，筋脉松弛，导致眼睛无法睁开。适宜服用助阳活血汤。（参见卷二。）另外，小儿刚出生时下眼睑不睁开，是因为产母在孕期过食辛辣温热之物，从而造成此病。治疗方法应当用少许熊胆蒸水清洗眼部，每日七次。如果三天后仍不睁开，则内服生地黄散。凡是小儿出生后未能清洁干净，污秽汁液必然浸渍眼中，导致眼睛红肿溃烂，直至长大也无法痊愈。

集成：所谓“直视”，是指注视物体时眼珠不转动。如果眼珠能转动，就不是直视。伤寒病出现直视症状，是因为邪气壅盛，蒙蔽正气，使神气昏昧，脏腑之气不能上行荣养于目，从而导致眼睛直视。伤寒发展到直视阶段，说明邪气已至极点，证候已属逆证，大多难以治愈。《内经》说：经常鼻出血的人不可发汗，若误用发汗法，会导致额部凹陷，脉象紧急，眼睛直视不能闭目，不能安眠。因为肝受血滋养才能视物，失血过多则肝气已虚，目气已弱，再加上发汗导致亡阳，这是阴阳俱虚所致。这种情况虽然错乱逆乱，但还算不太严重。等到出现胡言乱语、反白眼直视，则是肾气绝的表现；直视且摇头，则是心气绝的表现，这都是脏腑之气脱绝的现象。出现直视、谵语、喘满的会死亡，四肢厥逆的也会死亡。病情更重的出现发狂不识人，抓摸衣被床沿，惊恐不安，微喘且直视，脉象弦涩的也会死亡，这都是邪气盛而正气脱绝的结果。《素问》说：少阳经气终绝时，全身关节松弛无力，目系断绝。王冰注解说：“”指直视如受惊的样子。目系断绝，所以眼睛不动而直视。
The Foot-Taiyang Meridian serves as the upper eyelid (Shanggang of the eye). The Foot-Yangming Meridian serves as the lower eyelid (Xiagang of the eye). When affected by Heat, the tendons become flaccid, resulting in the inability to open the eyes. It is appropriate to administer Zhuyang Huoxue Tang (Assisting Yang and Invigorating Blood Decoction) [see Volume 2]. Additionally, when an infant's lower eyelids do not open at birth, it is caused by the mother consuming excessive spicy and hot substances during pregnancy, leading to this condition. The treatment method should involve washing the eyes with water steamed with a small amount of Xiongdan (Bear Bile), seven times a day. If they remain closed after three days, Shengdihuang San (Rehmannia Root Powder) should be taken internally. If a newborn is not cleaned properly, foul fluids will inevitably soak into the eyes, causing redness and ulceration that may persist until adulthood without healing.
Renshen Tang (Ginseng Decoction) (Treats Toufeng Xuanxuan [Head Wind Dizziness], where one feels the ground and houses are spinning, and the eyes are tightly closed and dare not open.)
Renshen (Radix Ginseng), Maimendong (Ophiopogonis Radix, heart removed), Danggui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis, wine-processed), Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma), Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix) (each 8 fen), Baishaoyao (Paeoniae Radix Alba), Duhuo (Angelicae Pubescentis Radix), Huangqi (Astragali Radix) (each 1 qian 2 fen), Guigui (Cinnamomi Ramulus, bark removed, 7 fen).
Crush these ingredients into pieces. Add two zhong of clear water, decoct until eight fen remains, remove the dregs, and take after meals.
Shengdihuang San (Rehmannia Root Powder)
Shengdihuang (Rehmanniae Radix Preparata), Chishaoyao (Paeoniae Radix Rubra), Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Dangguishen (Radix Angelicae Sinensis, root body), Tianhuafen (Trichosanthis Radix) (each equal parts).
Grind these into a fine powder. According to the patient's age/size, mix with Dengxin Tang (Junci Medullae Decoction), and apply inside the mouth.
Chengji: "Zhishi" (Fixed Gaze) refers to staring at objects without the eyeballs moving. If the eyeballs move, it is not Zhishi. In Shanghan (Cold Damage Disease), Zhishi occurs because pathogenic factors are abundant and obstruct the healthy Qi, causing the Shen Qi (Spiritual Energy) to become dull. The Qi of the Zang-Fu organs fails to ascend to nourish the eyes, resulting in fixed gaze. When Shanghan progresses to Zhishi, it indicates that pathogenic factors have reached their extreme and the syndrome has become rebellious; it is mostly difficult to treat. The Classics state: Those who suffer from frequent epistaxis (Nujia) should not undergo sweating therapy. If sweating is induced erroneously, the forehead may sink, the pulse becomes tight and urgent, the eyes stare fixedly unable to close, and sleeplessness ensues. This is because the Liver receives blood to enable vision; loss of blood makes Liver Qi deficient and Eye Qi weak. Furthermore, sweating causes Yang depletion, leading to deficiency of both Yin and Yang. Although this disorder is rebellious, it is not yet severe. However, when delirious speech, reversed eyes, and fixed gaze appear, it signifies Kidney exhaustion; fixed gaze accompanied by head shaking signifies Heart exhaustion. These are all manifestations of Zang-Fu Qi exhaustion. Fixed gaze with delirium and fullness in the chest with panting leads to death; Jueni (Cold extremities) also leads to death. In more severe cases, mania with inability to recognize people, grasping at clothes and bedrails, fearfulness and restlessness, slight panting, fixed gaze, and a wiry and choppy pulse indicate death. These are all due to excess of pathogenic factors and exhaustion of healthy Qi. Suwen states: When Shaoyang Qi terminates, the joints become flaccid, and the Musi (Eye Ties/Meridian connections) sever. Wang Bing's commentary notes: "Mu" refers to the appearance of fixed gaze like shock. Since the Musi are severed, the eyes do not move but stare fixedly.
