宝石：主治去除眼翳、明目，用于点眼药。若灰尘进入眼睛，用宝石珠擦拭拂拭即可去除（《本草纲目》）。【名称】（李时珍说）红色的称为刺子，碧色的称为靛子，翠绿色的称为马价珠，黄色的称为木难珠，紫色的称为蜡子。又有鸦鹘石、猫睛石、石榴子、红扁豆等。【产地】出产于西番回鹘地区的各个坑井内，云南、辽东也有出产。（《山海经》说）骒山多玉，凄水从那里流出，向西注入海中，盛产采石，采石就是宝石。碧色的宝石唐代人称之为瑟瑟，红色的宋代人称之为[缺字]，现在通称为宝石，用来镶嵌首饰和器物。（张勃《吴录》说）越隽、云南、河中地区出产碧珠，需要祭祀后才能取得，有缥碧、绿碧、深碧，这些就是碧色的宝石。【质地】大的如手指头大小，小的……无毒。
水精（水晶）：主治熨烫眼部以消除热泪（《本草拾遗》），也用于点眼药。穿串后吞咽可推引各种哽塞之物（《本草纲目》）。【名称】水晶、水玉、石英。（李时珍说）晶莹透彻、光芒如水之精英，取其意而命名。（《山海经》）称之为水玉，《广雅》称之为石英。【产地】倭国出产的水精最多，为第一。南方的水精白色，北方的水精黑色，信州、武昌出产的水精浑浊。【质地】性质坚硬而脆，刀刮不动。颜色清澈如泉水，清明而晶莹，置于水中若无瑕疵则看不见，这样的珠子为佳。【颜色】有黑、白、青、紫几种。（《类书》说）太康四年，林邑王范能进献紫水精唾壶一个，青白水精唾壶两个。【味道】辛。【性味】寒。【伪品】（古语说）冰化谬言也。药物烧制而成的有气眼，称之为硝子，又名海水精。（《抱朴子》说）交州、广州的人制作假水精，大概就是这个。火珠（《纲目》附录）（李时珍说）《说文解字》称之为火齐珠，《汉书》称之为玫瑰（音枚回）。（《唐书》说）东南海中有罗刹国，出产火齐珠，大的如鸡蛋大小，形状类似水精，圆白，光照数尺，中午时用艾草承接即可得火，用于艾灸，艾炷不伤人。现今占城国有名曰朝霞大火珠的。（又据《续汉书》说）哀牢夷出产火精。琉璃则是火齐乃火精之讹误，正与水精相对。石（音[缺字]）（《纲目》附录）（李时珍说）出产于雁门，石次于玉，白色如冰，也有红色的。（《山海经》说）北山多[缺字]石。
Precious Stone (Baoshi): Primarily treats the removal of corneal opacity (Yi) and brightens the eyes; used in eye drops. If dust enters the eye, wiping it with a precious stone bead removes it immediately (*Bencao Gangmu*). [Names] (Li Shizhen states): Red ones are named Cizi; greenish-blue ones are named Dianzi; emerald-green ones are named Majiazhu; yellow ones are named Munanzhu; purple ones are named Lazhi. There are also Yahu Shi, Maojing Shi, Shiliuzi, and Hongbiandou. [Origin]: Produced in the pits and wells of Xifan Huihu regions; also found in Yunnan and Liaodong. (*Shanhaijing* states): Guo Mountain has much jade; Qi River flows from there westward into the sea, abundant in Caishi, which is Precious Stone. Greenish-blue stones were called Sese by Tang people; red ones were called [missing character] by Song people; now generally referred to as Baoshi, used for inlaying jewelry and vessels. (Zhang Bo's *Wu Lu* states): Bibe pearls are produced in Yuejun, Yunnan, and Hezhong, obtained only after sacrifices; varieties include Piao Bi, Lv Bi, and Shen Bi, which are greenish-blue precious stones. [Quality]: Large ones are finger-sized, small ones... Non-toxic.
Water Crystal (Shuijing): Primarily treats warming the eyes to eliminate hot tears (*Bencao Shiyi*); also used in eye drops. Swallowed while threaded, it can push out various foreign bodies causing choking (*Bencao Gangmu*). [Names]: Water Crystal, Shuiyu, Shuangying. (Li Shizhen states): Crystalline and transparent like the essence of water, named by meaning. (*Shanhaijing*) calls it Shuiyu; *Guangya* calls it Shuangying. [Origin]: Wa country produces the best Water Crystal. Southern Water Crystal is white; Northern Water Crystal is black; those from Xinzhou and Wuchang are turbid. [Quality]: Hard yet brittle, cannot be scratched by a knife. Color is clear as spring water, bright and lustrous; if placed in water without flaws it becomes invisible, such pearls are superior. [Color]: Black, white, cyan, and purple. (*Leishu* states): In the 4th year of Taikang, Fan Neng, King of Linyi, presented one purple Water Crystal spittoon and two cyan-white Water Crystal spitoons. [Taste]: Acrid (Xin). [Nature]: Cold. [Counterfeits] (Ancient saying): The notion that ice transforms into this is false. Medicinal substances fired into glass have air bubbles and are called Xiaozi, also known as Haishuijing. (*Baopuzi* states): People in Jiaozhou and Guangzhou make fake Water Crystal, likely referring to this. Fire Pearl (Appendix to *Gangmu*) (Li Shizhen states): *Shuowen Jiezi* calls it Huoqi Zhu; *Han Shu* calls it Meigui (pronounced Mei Hui). (*Tang Shu* states): In the southeast sea lies the Kingdom of Luocha, producing Huoqi Zhu, large as chicken eggs, round and white like Water Crystal, illuminating several feet; at noon, moxa held beneath catches fire; used for moxibustion, the moxa cone does not harm the skin. Currently, the Kingdom of Champa has a variety named Zhaoxia Dahuo Zhu. (Also according to *Houxuhan Shu*): The Ailao Yi produce Huojing. Liuli is an error for Huoqi/Huojing, standing opposite to Water Crystal. Shi (sound [missing]) (Appendix to *Gangmu*) (Li Shizhen states): Produced in Yanmen, inferior to jade, white as ice, some are red. (*Shanhaijing* states): North Mountain has much [missing] Shi.
