脉∶眼本火病，心肝数洪；右寸关见，相火上冲。
夫人之有两眼，犹天之有日月也。视万物、察纤毫，何莫而不至？日月有一时晦者，风云雷雨之所致也。
目之失明者，四气七情之所害也。大抵眼目为五脏之精华，一身之至要也，故五脏分五轮，八卦名八廓。五轮
者，肝属木，曰风轮，在眼为乌睛；心属火，曰火轮，在眼为二 ；脾属土，曰肉轮，在眼为上下胞；肺属金，
曰气轮，在眼为白睛；肾属水，曰水轮，在眼为瞳子。至若八廓，无位有名。胆之腑为天廓；膀胱之腑为地廓；
命门之腑为水廓；小肠之腑为火廓；肾之腑为风廓；脾之腑为雷廓；大肠之腑为山廓；三焦之腑为泽廓。此虽
为眼目之根本，而面为包络五脏。或蕴积风热，或七情之气郁结不散，上攻眼目，各随五脏所属，或肿赤而痛，
羞明怕日，隐涩难开，或云翳内障、白膜遮睛，共症七十有二。治之须究其所因。风则驱散之，热则清凉之，
气结则调顺之，翳障则点退之，肿痛则消止之，此治疗之大略耳。切不可用针刀割取，偶得其愈，出乎侥幸。
唯此万明膏药，该内外之五行，合表里而一致，因虚实之异用，论新久之浅深，分老幼而不拘一定，尽变通而
随疾加减。目疾之名虽多，而药品之治无遗。且不可过用凉剂冰其面目，而血不流畅，恐成痼疾矣。又肾虚者，
令人眼目昏花，当补暖下元，以益肾水。虽然亦有南北之分。北方之人患眼者甚多，皆是日冒风沙、夜卧热炕，
二气交蒸使然。治之宜用凉药，与南方不同故也。然小儿痘疹之后，毒瓦斯流于心肝二经，不能自己，以致上攻
眼目，视物不明，常见黑花，当风多泪，隐涩难开，久生翳障；或妇人面风时发，眼目暴赤。或因气恼伤于心
肺二经，日久生翳，白膜遮睛；因循不治，云翳渐浓，视物不明，而为终身之害矣。用此万明膏一点，如风吹
云散，日显光明，何物不照也？世人谚语，以为动土者，有犯鬼神作祟，甘心祷祝，此乃愚人之谬，非明医之
至论也。所以自纳于盲瞽之地有由然也。高明者宜详辩之。予着点服二药，诸列于后方，亲试屡有奇效，广传
与人，以为人济世之宝也。得之者，最宜珍重。
眼者，五脏六腑之精华也。大 赤、红肉堆起者，心经实热也；小 赤、红丝血胀者，心经虚热也；乌睛
红白翳障者，肝病也；白珠红筋翳膜者，肺病也；上下眼胞如桃者，脾病也；迎风出泪、坐起生花者，肾病也。
赤而痛者，肝实热也。羞明怕日者，脾实也；视物不真者，脾虚也。眵多结硬者，肺实也；眵稀不结者，肺虚
也。拳毛倒睫者，脾风也。攀睛 肉者，心热也。雀目者。昼则明而夜则不见也。青盲者，瞳子黑白分明，直
物而不见也。
眼科秘传经验者，天下第一方也。

人两眼角出烟雾，此肝火也。以柴胡、黄连等分，大剂水煎，临卧频频服之，数剂乃瘥。
脉象：眼睛本质上是火病，心肝二经多见洪大之脉；若右寸、右关脉出现此象，则是相火上冲所致。
人的双眼，就像天空中的太阳和月亮。观察万物、洞察细微，没有不到的地方。日月偶尔会有昏暗的时候，那是风云雷雨造成的。
眼睛失明，是由于四时气候异常和七情内伤所损害。大体上，眼目是五脏精华的汇聚，是一身至关重要的部位，所以五脏分为五轮，八卦名为八廓。所谓五轮：肝属木，称为风轮，在眼睛对应黑睛（乌珠）；心属火，称为火轮，在眼睛对应两眦（眼角）；脾属土，称为肉轮，在眼睛对应上下眼睑；肺属金，称为气轮，在眼睛对应白睛（巩膜）；肾属水，称为水轮，在眼睛对应瞳孔。至于八廓，虽无固定位置但有名称。胆为腑，对应天廓；膀胱为腑，对应地廓；命门为腑，对应水廓；小肠为腑，对应火廓；肾为腑，对应风廓；脾为腑，对应雷廓；大肠为腑，对应山廓；三焦为腑，对应泽廓。这虽然是眼目的根本，但面部包裹着五脏。如果蕴积风热，或者七情之气郁结不散，向上攻冲眼目，各自随所属脏腑的不同，或出现红肿疼痛，羞明怕日，隐涩难睁，或有云翳内障、白膜遮睛等症状，共有七十二种病症。治疗时必须探究其病因。风邪则驱散它，热邪则清凉它，气结则调理顺气，翳障则点药消退，肿痛则消除止疼，这是治疗的大略原则。切不可用针刀割取，偶然治愈也是侥幸。唯有这个万明膏药，涵盖内外五行，表里一致，根据虚实的不同用法，论述新久病的深浅，区分老幼而不拘泥于定法，完全变通而随疾病加减。眼疾的名称虽然多，但药品的治疗没有遗漏。而且不可过度使用凉剂冰镇面目，导致血液不流畅，恐怕形成顽固性疾病。另外肾虚的人，会导致眼目昏花，应当补暖下元，以益肾水。虽然也有南北地域的区别。北方人患眼病的很多，都是因为白天冒风沙、晚上睡热炕，两种气息交蒸造成的。治疗适宜用凉药，与南方不同。然而小儿出痘疹后，毒瓦斯流注于心肝二经，不能自行消散，以致向上攻冲眼目，视物不明，常见黑花飞舞，迎风流泪，隐涩难开，日久生成翳障；或者妇人面风时常发作，眼目突然红赤。或者因为气恼损伤心肺二经，日久生翳，白膜遮睛；拖延不治，云翳逐渐浓厚，视物不明，成为终身的危害。使用这个万明膏一点，如同风吹云散，日光显现光明，有什么照不到呢？世人谚语，认为动土者有犯鬼神作祟，甘心祈祷祝告，这是愚人的谬误，不是高明医生的至理名言。所以自陷于盲瞽之地是有原因的。高明的人应该详细辨别。我撰写的点服两种药物，都列在后面，亲自试用屡次有奇效，广泛传播给人，作为济世救人的宝物。得到的人，最应该珍重。
眼睛，是五脏六腑精华的汇聚。大眦红、红肉堆起，是心经实热；小眦红、红丝血胀，是心经虚热；黑睛红白翳障，是肝病；白珠红筋翳膜，是肺病；上下眼睑如桃子般肿胀，是脾病；迎风流泪、坐起眼前生花，是肾病。红且痛，是肝实热；羞明怕日，是脾实；视物不清，是脾虚；眼屎多且结硬，是肺实；眼屎稀且不结，是肺虚；睫毛拳曲倒睫，是脾风；胬肉攀睛，是心热；雀目（夜盲），是白天明亮夜晚看不见；青盲，是瞳孔黑白分明，直视物体却看不见。
眼科秘传经验方，是天下第一方。

Pulse: The eyes are essentially a fire disease; the Heart and Liver pulses are frequently rapid and surging (Hong). If these appear at the Right Cun and Guan positions, it indicates an upward rush of Ministerial Fire (Xiang Huo).
The human eyes are like the sun and moon in the sky. They observe all things and perceive the finest details without exception. When the sun and moon become dim for a time, it is caused by wind, clouds, thunder, and rain. Similarly, blindness or visual impairment is caused by damage from the four climatic factors (Si Qi) and the seven emotions (Qi Qing). Generally speaking, the eyes are the gathering place of the essence of the five Zang organs and are vital to the whole body. Therefore, the five Zang organs correspond to the Five Wheels (Wu Lun), and the Eight Trigrams correspond to the Eight Palaces (Ba Kuo).
The Five Wheels are as follows: The Liver belongs to Wood, called the Wind Wheel (Feng Lun), corresponding to the cornea/pupil area (Wu Jing) in the eye; the Heart belongs to Fire, called the Fire Wheel (Huo Lun), corresponding to the canthi (corners of the eyes); the Spleen belongs to Earth, called the Flesh Wheel (Rou Lun), corresponding to the upper and lower eyelids; the Lung belongs to Metal, called the Qi Wheel (Qi Lun), corresponding to the sclera (white part of the eye); the Kidney belongs to Water, called the Water Wheel (Shui Lun), corresponding to the pupil.
As for the Eight Palaces, they have names but no fixed positions. The Gallbladder corresponds to the Heaven Palace (Tian Kuo); the Bladder to the Earth Palace (Di Kuo); the Ming Men (Gate of Life) to the Water Palace (Shui Kuo); the Small Intestine to the Fire Palace (Huo Kuo); the Kidney to the Wind Palace (Feng Kuo); the Spleen to the Thunder Palace (Lei Kuo); the Large Intestine to the Mountain Palace (Shan Kuo); and the San Jiao (Triple Burner) to the Marsh Palace (Ze Kuo). Although these constitute the root of the eyes, the face envelops the five Zang organs. If wind-heat accumulates, or if the qi of the seven emotions becomes stagnant and does not disperse, it attacks the eyes upward. Depending on the affected Zang organ, symptoms may include swelling, redness, pain, photophobia (aversion to light), difficulty opening the eyes due to grittiness, clouding opacities (Yun Yi), cataracts, or white membranes obscuring the vision. There are seventy-two such syndromes. Treatment must investigate the cause. For wind, dispel it; for heat, cool it; for qi stagnation, regulate and smooth it; for opacities, apply drops to clear them; for swelling and pain, reduce swelling and stop pain. This is the general principle of treatment. One must absolutely avoid using needles or knives for surgical removal; occasional success is merely luck. Only this Wan Ming Gao (Ten Thousand Brightness Ointment) encompasses the Five Elements internally and externally, unifies the interior and exterior, adapts to deficiency and excess, considers the depth of new versus chronic diseases, and adjusts for age without rigid rules, varying freely with the illness. Although eye diseases have many names, the medicinal treatments cover them all. Furthermore, one must not overuse cold/clearing agents to freeze the face and eyes, which would impede blood flow and potentially lead to stubborn diseases. Additionally, Kidney Deficiency causes blurred vision; one should warm the Lower Yuan (Lower Origin) to nourish Kidney Water. However, there are regional differences. People in the North suffer from eye diseases frequently because they expose themselves to wind and sand during the day and sleep on heated kang beds at night; the steaming effect of these two factors causes the disease. Treatment should use cooling herbs, differing from the South.
However, after children suffer from smallpox/rash, toxic heat flows into the Heart and Liver meridians and cannot dissipate on its own, attacking the eyes upward. Symptoms include unclear vision, seeing black spots, tearing in the wind, grittiness, and eventual formation of opacities. Or, women suffering from facial wind may experience sudden redness of the eyes. Or, anger and frustration injure the Heart and Lung meridians, leading to opacities and white membranes obscuring vision over time. If neglected, the clouding thickens, vision becomes unclear, causing lifelong harm. Applying a dot of Wan Ming Gao disperses the cloud like wind blowing away mist, revealing the bright sun, illuminating everything. Folk sayings attribute eye issues to offending spirits during earth-moving, leading people to pray foolishly. This is the error of fools, not the profound theory of enlightened physicians. Thus, falling into blindness has its reasons. Enlightened individuals should discriminate carefully. I have written down two internal/external medications listed below, which I have personally tested with miraculous effects. I spread them widely to benefit the world as treasures. Those who obtain them should cherish them greatly.
The eyes are the essence of the six Fu organs and five Zang organs. Redness and flesh proliferation at the outer canthus indicate Excess Heat in the Heart Meridian; redness and engorged blood vessels at the inner canthus indicate Deficient Heat in the Heart Meridian. Redness and white opacities on the cornea indicate Liver disease; red veins and membranes on the sclera indicate Lung disease; swollen eyelids resembling peaches indicate Spleen disease; tearing in the wind and seeing spots when sitting up indicate Kidney disease. Redness with pain indicates Liver Excess Heat; photophobia indicates Spleen Excess; unclear vision indicates Spleen Deficiency; excessive hard discharge indicates Lung Excess; thin non-sticky discharge indicates Lung Deficiency; curled eyelashes (trichiasis) indicate Spleen Wind; pterygium (fleshy growth over the cornea) indicates Heart Heat; nyctalopia (night blindness) is seeing clearly by day but not by night; cyanopsia (green blindness) is clear pupils but inability to see objects directly.
This secret empirical formula for ophthalmology is the number one prescription under heaven.

All seventy-two ingredients are cut into fine slices. Use one bucket of child's urine clarified with water, placed in a porcelain basin. Add three jin of Calcined Calamine (Lu Gan Shi), soak for one day and night, clarify, and soak again. Remove the Calamine, place it in a Hun Yuan Ball (a grinding vessel), and roast it red. Soak it in the medicinal liquid. Repeat this ten-plus times. After cooling, remove the Calamine, seal it in a Yangcheng jar, and fire it. Each jar fires for the duration of three incense sticks. The lighter, clearer portion combined with subsequent herbs treats blindness; the heavier, bottom portion treats fiery eyes. Herb modifications follow. If not fired in a jar, grind the Calamine finely, wash with water to separate clear and turbid parts for dual use.
If preparing ten liang of processed Calamine, add five qian of Succinum (Hu Po), eight qian of Pearl (Zhen Zhu), all passed through the Hun Yuan Ball to become extremely fine powder.
