Doctors thought it was excess Liver Qi causing diplopia, taught taking Liver-Qi tonics but none worked. What disease is this? I said: Sun Simiao stated, the eye connections attach to the back of the head, emerging from the neck. Evil strikes the head, encountering body deficiency. When bowing, evil follows eye connections into the brain; when turning, eye connections tighten, causing dizziness and rotation. Evil strikes the eyeball. If the strike points are inconsistent, the eyeball scatters. Scattered eyeballs cause divided vision, hence seeing one object as two. Later, having him take wind-dispelling brain-penetrating medicine cured it.

Buyan Fang (Supplement Words Formula): The method described is most unique, claiming to treat itchy tearing, nebula formation, or red/painful eyes.
Use Xuanzhou Coptis Rhizome (Xuan Zhou Huang Lian) crushed into powder, Ruan Kernel (Rui He Ren) peeled and ground into paste. Mix equal parts. Take three dry dates without disease, cut off the top slightly keeping it, remove the pit. Fill the cavity with the two ingredients. Replace the date top to seal. Wrap thinly in cotton. Measure half a bowl of water in a tea cup, place in a silver pot. Decoct over high fire until it forms a mass the size of a chicken egg. Filter through cotton, wait for it to cool, and instill into eyes. Tested on several people with success. Also effective for food-induced nebula. Thus attached here, never failing in verification.
Buyang Tang (Supplement Yang Decoction): Treats Yang unable to overcome Yin, i.e., Yin excess and Yang deficiency, leading to blockage of the nine orifices. Currently, blue-white nebula is seen in the inner canthus and blocked in Foot-Taiyang and Foot-Shaoin meridians. Foot-Jueyin Liver Meridian Qi cannot ascend, causing internal obstruction of blue-white nebula. One should act below the Nine Origins in Taiyang/Shaojin meridians, allowing Yang Qi from the Monitor Palace to rush upward. This first supplements Yang, then drains Fire from Foot-Jueyin Liver Meridian at the Taiyang Mark (Head). Yin governs below Yang. *Neijing* states: In Yin excess/Yang deficiency, first supplement Yang, then drain Yin. This method is correct. Every morning, when the stomach is empty of residual food, take Buyang Tang. Before bed, take Yiyin Wan. If weather changes to extreme cold/heat or labor is heavy, and diet/spirit were previously unregulated, first supplement Yang so Qi ascends, connecting to the end of the Liver Meridian, bringing benefit.

Fan Ning of Jin Dynasty suffered from eye pain and sought a prescription from Zhang Zhan.

It was passed down generations to Han Du Zixia and Jin Zuo Taichong. All these sages had eye ailments. Obtaining this prescription says: Reduce reading one, reduce thinking two, focus on inner vision three, simplify external observation four, rise late five, sleep early six. These six items are cooked with divine fire, seasoned with qi, stored in the chest. After seven days, place them in the square inch (heart/mind).
