地黄丸（系许学士方）
况且治疗眼病的方法，最为繁多复杂。并非只有一种单一的模式，不可以轻视怠慢。比如患目昏花看不清楚，并不是一种症状。肝肾虚弱，导致看近处不清晰；脾虚，导致眼前出现白色花影；气虚，导致视物模糊不清；血虚，则感觉有飞虫乱舞（飞蚊症）；血冷，则瞳孔散大；肾虚，则瞳孔缩小。或者视物不明，是气机不和所致。黑花散乱，乃是精血亏虚。再加上迎风流泪不止，时而昏花，这是思虑过度损伤心神，以及膀胱受损的表现。最适宜使用调和气血、强壮元气的药物，千万不可用针刀切割或点药。只宜服用收敛明目、平和补益的药物。
第一问：眼睛发红且疼痛是怎么回事？答：这是因为五脏的积毒蕴结在肝之外围（白睛），感受了邪热，使得血液在肝经中运行紊乱，所以眼睛发红且疼痛。应服用《局方》八正散。
《局方》八正散方：车前子、瞿麦、扁蓄、滑石、甘草、栀子、木通、大黄（各等分）。
以上药材切碎。每次服用一两，加水两碗，灯心草七根，煎至八分满，去渣滓，饭后温服。
第二问：眼睛发红但不疼痛是怎么回事？答：这是肝实证。肝是血的源头，其征候反映在眼睛上。血盛则是肝实，血液旺盛则流入四肢，气血上冲，流注于眼睛。血液侵入眼球，眼球受到血液的影响，所以发红但不疼痛。适宜使用《局方》拨云散、秘方顺肝散、退赤散。如果治疗眼痛、热泪长流、昏涩肿胀，适宜使用秘方拨云散。
《局方》拨云散方：羌活、防风、柴胡、甘草（各等分）。

以上研为极细末。每次服用二钱，饭后用茶清调服。如果眼睛发红且有肉侵睛（胬肉攀睛），用淡竹叶汤调服。
第三问：眼睛发红是怎么回事？答：这是肝虚证。肝属木，木生火，火发则木灭。火对应心，红色灌注于黑睛（瞳神），侵入眼球则肿胀。适宜服用秘传黄丸、活血煎、当归丸。
秘传黄丸方：黄（蜜炙）、防风、茴香（炒）、白蒺藜（炒）、牡丹皮（各等分）。
以上研为细末，用酒糊制成梧桐子大小的丸药。每次服用三十丸，饭后用盐汤送服，或者用酒送服也可。妇人用艾醋汤送服。

当归丸方：上方秘传黄丸内去掉黄，加入当归，名为当归丸。
第四问：黑睛（瞳神）发红是怎么回事？答：这是心实证。五轮分布中，黑睛属心。心是帝王南面而坐的尊贵之位，其征候在黑睛。黑睛发红，乃是心实证。适宜使用三黄丸、菊花散。
三黄丸方：黄连（去皮）、黄芩（去芦）、大黄（各等分）。

以上切碎。每次服用三钱，饭后临睡前用茶清调服。常服可清利头目，洗肝祛风。忌食发风淹炙爆等食物。
第五问：黑睛周围发红是怎么回事？答：这是心虚证。心是五脏六腑的宗主，上应荣卫，属于南方之位。五行生克中，火生土，土实则火虚。黑睛周围发红，是心虚证。适宜服用茯苓散、定光朱砂膏。
茯苓散方：白附子、玄参（各五钱）、白茯苓（七钱五分）、川续断、白僵蚕（各一两）。

以上研为极细末，煎蜜做成膏剂。每次用铜箸蘸取点在大小黑睛内，立见疗效。
第六问：眼睛经常流泪是怎么回事？答：这是肺实证。肺属西方庚辛金，金生水，水发动则流注。金属肺经，其色白。《五轮八廓经》说：泪本是肺的精华。眼睛出眵（眼屎）且硬，是肺实证。适宜使用秘方泻肺汤。
泻肺汤方：桑白皮、地骨皮、甘草（各等分）。
以上切碎。每次服用一两，加水一碗半，煎至一碗，饭后服。
第七问：怕日光羞明是怎么回事？答：这是脾实证。脾属土，土生湿气，气结传导给肺，肺受脾邪，向上腾涌于眼睛。眼睛受到脾的湿气影响。脾主肌肉，内热难开，属于太阳经。真气向上腾涌，土湿稍胜，精华涩结，不能滋养眼睛。适宜使用秘方密蒙花散、千里光汤、《局方》羊肝丸。
千里光汤方：千里光（即石决明）、海金沙、甘草、菊花（分量相同）。
以上切碎。每次服用八钱，加水一碗半，煎至一碗，去渣饭后温服。

第八问：视物不明是怎么回事？答：这是脾脏虚证。眼轮属五脏，有青黄白黑之色。黄轮属脾，即指眼睑（揭睛）。眼睛本应其色青，属木。脾土被肝木所克制，青黄相争，不青不黄，眼睛杂色，而视物不明。适宜服用秘方苍术汤、千里光汤（方见前）。
秘方苍术汤方：苍术、玄参、甘草、远志、茺蔚子（各等分）。
以上切碎。每次服用五钱，加水一碗半，煎至一碗，加秦皮一片，饭后温服。药渣再煎。
第九问：眼睛常见黑花如绳牵拉是怎么回事？答：这是肾脏实证。肾属水，其应北方黑色，乃肝之母。母实，肝肾之邪伤于经脉，胆是眼的经脉，也是神水的源头。肾邪入目，时常落下如蝇羽般的黑影，是肾实证。适宜使用秘方猪苓汤、苦参汤。
秘方猪苓汤方：猪苓、木通、栀子、大黄、金毛狗脊、蓄（各等分）。
以上切碎。每次服用五钱，加水一碗半，煎至一碗，去渣温服，不拘时候。

以上切碎。每次服用五钱，加水一碗半，煎至一碗，去渣温服，不拘时候。
第十问：迎风流泪是怎么回事？答：这是肾家虚证。五轮说黑睛属肾。肝属木，木生风。肾属水，水枯不能滋木，所以迎风流泪。这是肾虚证。用石燕子散、艾煎丸、蚕沙汤。服用这些药能止住眼泪，大有神效。
石燕子散方：石燕子（一双，醋淬十次）、玳瑁、羚羊角（各一两）、犀角（五钱）。

蚕沙汤方：蚕沙（四两，炒）、巴戟（去皮）、川楝肉、马蔺花（各二两，去梗）。
以上研为细末。每次服用二钱，用无灰酒，不拘时候调服。
第十一问：眼中红筋附着在眼球上是怎么回事？答：这是心肝同病。心属火，火主血。肝属木，木主筋。血液侵入筋脉，是肝的征候。血是肝的源头，传入眼睛，逐渐灌注到瞳人，所以说侵睛。适宜服用当归散为主。
当归散：当归、防风苗（炮）、蒺藜（炒）、牡丹皮（各等分）。
以上研为细末。每次服用二钱，用生葱、薄荷、茶清调服。或者切碎煎服也可以。
第十二问：白膜遮盖眼球是怎么回事？答：这是肺克肝。肝属木，肺属金，金能克木。金色白，风邪犯肺克肝，严重时火旺。白轮（白睛）胜者，轮在睛上，复即灌交，是母子相刑。五花白膜遮睛，故金克木。适宜使用秘方连翘散、蝉花散、密蒙花散（方在七问下）。

地黄丸（系许学士方）
Moreover, the methods for treating eye diseases are numerous and complex. They are not limited to a single pattern and should not be treated lightly or with negligence. For instance, when suffering from blurred vision (myopia/amblyopia), it is not just one symptom. Deficiency of the Liver and Kidney leads to difficulty in focusing on near objects; Spleen deficiency causes seeing white spots; Qi deficiency results in vague vision; Blood deficiency manifests as floating flies (floaters); Cold Blood leads to dilation of the pupil; Kidney deficiency leads to constriction of the pupil. Or, unclear vision may be due to disharmony of Qi. Scattered black flowers indicate deficiency of Essence and Blood. Furthermore, continuous tearing upon exposure to wind, accompanied by intermittent blurriness, suggests injury from excessive thinking affecting the Heart, and damage to the Bladder. It is most appropriate to use herbs that harmonize Blood, strengthen Qi, and tonify Yuan Qi. One must absolutely avoid using needles, blades, or cauterization. Only mild, balancing, and tonifying medications for preserving vision should be taken.
Question 1: What causes redness and pain in the eyes?
Answer: This is caused by accumulated toxins from the Five Viscera gathering in the exterior of the Liver (the sclera). After contracting pathogenic Heat, the Blood becomes chaotic within the Liver Meridian, resulting in redness and pain. The patient should take Ba Zheng San (Eight-Justice Powder) from the *Ju Fang* (Imperial Formulary).
**Ba Zheng San Formula:** Che Qian Zi (Plantaginis Semen), Qu Mai (Dianthi Herba), Bian Xu (Polygoni Avicularis Herba), Hua Shi (Talcum), Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Zhi Zi (Gardeniae Fructus), Mu Tong (Akebiae Caulis), Da Huang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma) [all in equal proportions].
Prepare the herbs by cutting them. Take 1 liang per dose, add two bowls of water and seven stems of Deng Xin Cao (Junci Medulla), decoct until reduced to 80%. Strain and take warm after meals.
Question 2: What causes redness without pain in the eyes?
Answer: This indicates Excess in the Liver. The Liver is the source of Blood, and its manifestations appear in the eyes. When Blood is abundant, it represents Liver Excess. Excessive Blood flows to the four limbs, while Qi and Blood rush upward and flow into the eyes. When Blood invades the eyeball, it becomes red but not painful. It is suitable to use Bo Yun San (Cloud-Dispelling Powder) from the *Ju Fang*, Shun Gan San (Liver-Pacifying Powder) secret recipe, and Tui Chi San (Red-Removing Powder). If treating eye pain with hot tears, blurriness, dryness, and swelling, use the secret formula Bo Yun San.

Question 3: What causes redness in the eyes?
Answer: This indicates Deficiency of the Liver. The Liver belongs to Wood, Wood generates Fire. When Fire flares, Wood is extinguished. Fire corresponds to the Heart. Redness flooding the Black Wheel (pupil/cornea) and invading the eyeball causes swelling. It is suitable to take Mi Chuan Huang Wan (Secret Yellow Pill), Huo Xue Jian (Blood-Invigorating Decoction), and Dang Gui Wan (Angelica Pill).

Answer: This is Heart Excess. In the distribution of the Five Wheels, the Black Wheel belongs to the Heart. The Heart is the sovereign sitting facing south. Its manifestation is in the Black Wheel.

Answer: This is Heart Deficiency. The Heart is the master of the Five Viscera and Six Bowels, corresponding to Ying and Wei above, and belonging to the Southern position.

It is suitable to use the secret formula Xie Fei Tang (Lung-Draining Decoction).

Answer: This is Spleen Excess. The Spleen belongs to Earth, which generates Dampness. Qi condenses and transmits to the Lung. The Lung receives Spleen pathogenic factors, which ascend to the eyes. The eyes receive Spleen Dampness. The Spleen governs muscles; internal heat makes opening difficult, relating to the Taiyang channel. True Qi ascends, Earth Dampness slightly prevails, essence becomes astringent and knotted, failing to nourish the eyes.

Complete five courses. Treats various eye diseases, including cataracts and blindness. Avoid pork and cold water.
Question 8: What causes unclear vision?
Answer: This is Spleen Viscera Deficiency. The Eye Wheel belongs to the Five Viscera, showing colors green, yellow, white, and black. The Yellow Wheel belongs to the Spleen, referring to the eyelids. The eye originally corresponds to the color green, belonging to Wood. Spleen Earth is controlled by Liver Wood. Green and Yellow contend, resulting in neither green nor yellow, but mixed colors in the eyes, causing unclear vision. It is suitable to take Cang Zhu Tang (Atractylodis Rhizoma Decoction) secret recipe and Qian Li Guang Tang (see previous question).
**Cang Zhu Tang Formula (Secret Recipe):** Cang Zhu (Atractylodis Rhizoma), Xuan Shen (Scrophulariae Radix), Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Yuan Zhi (Polygalae Radix), Chong Wei Zi (Leonuri Fructus) [all in equal proportions].

Question 10: What causes tearing upon exposure to wind?
Answer: This is Kidney Home Deficiency. The Five Wheels state the Black Cornea belongs to the Kidney. The Liver belongs to Wood, Wood generates Wind. The Kidney belongs to Water; if Water is dried up, it cannot nourish Wood. Thus, tearing occurs upon exposure to wind. This is Kidney Deficiency. Use Shi Yan Zi San (Stone Swallow Powder), Ai Jian Wan (Mugwort Paste Pill), and Can Sha Tang (Silkworm Sand Decoction). Taking these medicines stops tearing with great efficacy.
**Shi Yan Zi San Formula:** Shi Yan Zi (Swallow Stone) [one pair, quenched in vinegar ten times], Dai Mao (Testudo Carapax et Plastrum), Ling Yang Jiao (Antilopis Cornu) [each 1 liang], Xi Jiao (Rhinocerotis Cornu) [5 qian].

Question 11: What causes red veins attaching to the eyeball?
Answer: This involves both Heart and Liver. The Heart belongs to Fire, Fire governs Blood. The Liver belongs to Wood, Wood governs Tendons. When Blood invades the tendons, it is a sign of the Liver. Blood is the source of the Liver, transmitting to the eyes, gradually flooding the pupil. Hence, it is called "invading the eyeball." It is suitable to treat with Dang Gui San (Angelica Powder).
**Dang Gui San:** Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Fang Feng Miao (Schizonepetae Herba tip) [fried], Ji Li (Tribuli Fructus) [stir-fried], Mu Dan Pi (Moutan Cortex) [all in equal proportions].

Question 12: What causes a white membrane covering the eyeball?
Answer: This is Lung controlling Liver. The Liver belongs to Wood, the Lung belongs to Metal. Metal controls Wood. Metal's color is white. Wind pathogen attacks the Lung, which controls the Liver. Severe cases involve flourishing Fire. When the White Wheel (sclera) prevails, the wheel is on the eyeball, intersecting, representing mutual punishment between mother and child.

Question 14: What causes morning blurriness in the eyes?
Answer: This is Head Wind attacking the head. The eyes are the head of the Taiyang channel. The Liver is Yang; vigorous Qi causes Head Wind to attack the eyes. It is suitable to take Xiong Ju San (Ligusticum and Chrysanthemum Powder) *Ju Fang*, Bai Ji Li San (Tribulus Powder), and Shi Gao San (Gypsum Powder).

It is suitable to use Xie Gan Tang (Liver-Draining Decoction) from Question 6 and Ku Shen Tang (Sophora Decoction) from Question 9.
Question 18: What causes floating nebula covering the eyeball?
