Treatment for facial black nevi: Take ten grains of glutinous rice (Oryza sativa var. glutinosa) and 0.5 fen (approx. 1.875g) of Pinellia Rhizome (Pinelliae Rhizoma). Grind them together into a fine powder. Mix with water to form a small amount of paste. Use a diamond-point needle to pick up a tiny amount and apply it to the top of the black nevus. Wait until dry, then peel off the blackened skin. If blackness remains, repeat the application as before; if no blackness remains, no further treatment is needed.
Another method: Cut open a cucumber, remove the pulp, and fill it completely with Glauber's Salt (Natrii Sulfas). Bind it tightly with rope around the circumference and hang it in a place without direct sunlight but with air circulation. Place a basin underneath to collect the liquid dripping from the cucumber. Apply this liquid to the nevus. Alternatively, use the sharp corner of a new porcelain bowl or plate to gently scrape off the superficial skin of the nevus, then apply the aforementioned liquid. Both methods are effective.
Treatment for freckles (Spilium): Take equal parts of plum flesh after frost (Prunus mume), cherry branch (Cerasi Ramulus), pig's tooth soap pod (Gleditsiae Sinensis Fructus), and purple-backed duckweed (Lemna minor). Grind into a fine powder. Use it like ordinary face-washing powder; the freckles will naturally disappear.
Treatment for facial sores: Take high-quality Angelica Dahurica Root (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix) alone, grind into a fine powder, and mix with good wine. Apply to the sore. Wait until dry, moisten with well water, sweep away the old medicine, and apply fresh medicine. Repeat changing the dressing three or four times consecutively, and it will heal.
Treatment for red, swollen eyes with nebula and pain: Apply bile from a carp (Cyprinus carpio) to the eye. This also treats nyctalopia (night blindness).
Treatment for sudden bilateral red eyes: Boil two bowls of salt water using running water. After drinking, induce vomiting by probing the throat with a chicken feather. Then, stimulate bleeding from the nose using a grass stem. The condition will resolve.
Treatment for red eye: Grind alum (Alumen) in licorice root water (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma aqueous extract) and apply to the eyelids. Pain stops immediately.
Treatment for wind-induced red eye: Take ten earthworms (Pheretima), roast until dry, and crush into powder. Before bedtime, take 2 qian (approx. 7.5g) mixed with cold tea.
Another method: Take Commelina communis herb (Commelinae Herba), wash clean, crush, and spread over the eye. Tie securely with silk cloth. It heals quickly.

Another method: Fire-calcine green salt (Natrium Chloratum), place under a bowl on the ground to dissipate fire heat, then grind finely. Take half a qian (approx. 1.875g) per dose, soak in one cup of hot water until warm, and wash the ulcerated eye and trichiasis. Effective.
Treatment for cold tearing and blurred vision: Grind large dried ginger (Zingiberis Rhizoma) into powder. Take one zi (approx. 0.3-0.6g) per dose, point and wash with boiling water. Alternatively, take one greasy-white Fritillaria Bulb (Fritillariae Cirrhosae Bulbus) and seven peppercorns (Piperis Nigrum Fructus), grind into powder, and apply to the eye.
Treatment for itchy eyes: Often caused by wiping the orbital area with cloth towels leading to erosion, resulting in "rotating dizziness wind." Do not wipe dry. Take one liang (approx. 37.5g) of alum (Alumen) and one liang of copper green (Chrysocolla), grind finely and mix evenly. Take half a qian per dose, soak in half a cup of hot water, clarify, and dip fingers to wash the eye according to the method. There will be astringency; do not wipe dry. Just sit with closed eyes until the astringency subsides, then open naturally. If the medicine cools, cover the cup with paper and warm it on a hot water bottle before washing again. Wash four or five times a day.
Treatment for persistent nebula/membrane in the eye for many years: Lick the membrane with the tongue three times daily. The membrane will gradually descend due to the body's true qi.

Treatment for epidemic eye disease (Shixing Haiyan) with wind and tears: Take six qian (approx. 22.5g) of Glauber's Salt (Natrii Sulfas), one zhong of water, decoct to seven-tenths volume. Wait for it to cool completely before washing the eye. Wash several times a day. Eyes become clear like a child's. Decoct once a month.
Treatment for foreign body in the eye: Use good ink, grind with clear water, dip chopsticks, and point into the eye to remove the object.
