Zhang Taiqing once suffered from dim vision. Physicians in the capital advised him to moxa the Ganshu (BL18) acupoint, which resulted in complete blindness. He then obtained this formula, took it, and his vision recovered. A man suffering from internal cataracts was treated ineffectively by doctors. I gave him the remaining portion of this prescription. One night by lamplight, he told his family: "I happened to see something just now, as if seeing fire through a crack in the door." By morning, upon examination, the pterygium or film in his eye had cracked like a thread. Zhang Zhongjing said: This medicine is efficacious; do not give it to others lightly, for neglecting it will render it ineffective. I felt my understanding was limited and wished to disseminate it widely.

This formula also treats acute red eye. Patients with red eyes should avoid wet noodles and alcohol. The Chu Ye (Broussonetiae Folium) must be truly leaf-only without fruit; otherwise, it is unsuitable. If not, all other medicines will be ineffective. During preparation, baking is prohibited, and contact with iron vessels must be avoided. In observing this formula, the selection of Chu Ye must be leaf-only without fruit. This is because Yin and Yang entities must correspond: fruit-bearing represents Yang, while leaf-only represents Yin.

The *Su Wen* states: Prolonged viewing damages Blood. Blood is governed by the Liver; thus, diligent writing injures the Liver. The primary symptom is blurred vision. When the Liver is injured, wind generates internally. Heat rises to accumulate in the eyes, causing severe blurring. One should not exclusively take tonifying medicines; instead, one must take medicines that nourish Blood, calm the Liver, and brighten the eyes, such as Dihuang Wan.
