[Prescription Verse] Jun Du (Fungus Toxin) arises at the edge of the eyelashes, resembling a fungus with a yellow, bright, and round blister. The head is large while the stalk is small, gradually hanging out; it is caused by Spleen dampness and stagnant heat condensing firmly.

[Annotation] This condition arises at the margin of the upper and lower eyelids near the eyelashes. Initially, it resembles a fungus, with a large head and a small stalk, appearing as a yellow, shiny blister. There may also be cases where the head is small and the stalk is large. It gradually grows and hangs outward, becoming hard and firm without pain. Some cases linger for years without healing, leading to eye diseases. Since the eyelids belong to the Spleen, this condition arises from pre-existing damp-heat in its meridians, combined with emotional stagnation and Qi constraint. In the early stage, washing with Qingliang Yuan (Cooling Circle) can eliminate it. If the skin has thickened after many years and washing is ineffective, the treatment method should involve moistening the area of the Jun Du on the eyelid with soft cotton paper dipped in water. After a short while, use the thumbnail of the left hand to pad the root of the lesion, and hold a Bizen needle (a type of ancient surgical needle) in the right hand to cut off the base flush with the root. Do not wipe the blood that flows out; immediately apply a thick paste made from Cuiyun Ding (Emerald Cloud Pill) ground with water to stop the bleeding. Internally, administer Liangge Qingpi Yin (Cooling the Diaphragm and Clearing the Spleen Decoction). Avoid seafood and fried foods.
