世之最贵者,莫过于人。人之最贵者,莫过于目。眼乃一身之珍宝,能观万物,
照耀无穷,内连五脏,外应五行。今时患眼者,皆因外受风寒暑湿,内为忧思喜怒,
五劳七伤,四气七情,或餐五辛,或好淫色,早乘烟雾,久视灯光,皆为患眼之源。
轻则昏蒙,重则翳障,致成 肉遮睛,眵泪烂眩。或被五风所害,或然障膜所侵,
无须治眼,先保元阳。切宜洗心涤虑,然后服药,随证治之或洗,或针,
或烙,或割,封贴,明辨患证,切宜细心医治。(其功难述。)
夫眼者,五脏之精华,一身之至宝,如天之日月,其可不保护哉!骨之精为瞳
人,(属肾。)筋之精为黑睛,(属肝。)血之精为脉络,(属心。)气之精为白睛,(属肺。)肉
之精为约束,(属脾。)人之造化皆从眼,目生于肝、心、脾、肺、肾、肢体、手足。
今人多好淫欲,耗散元阳,五脏不和,上盛下虚,血不能流传,致令热气上攻,眼
目赤肿,疼痛隐涩难开,翳膜遮睛,羞明怕日。或然表虚,外受风寒,其气在
里,内须头痛发作无时,经年日久,致令翳障,侵睛内障。或饮酒过多,常食
热物,皆为损眼之源。明辨数方,济无之周。凡有眼证,察其义理,随患证治之。
人禀五行造化,阴阳匹配成形,是曰∶五轮有位,八廓分形。五轮应五行,按
五方,内五脏,出五运,曰金、木、水、火、土者也。人质之中,皆荷五应之扶持。
所谓八廓者,分八卦,应八廓。故眼为清净之宝,属日月之通幽。胆脉相连,配于
天道之象,随于瞻视,其用清虚,外通五轮,内应八廓,其经故无正名。内间为之
天、地、水、火、风、雷、山、泽,应是八廓,而有病根,形于证候。凡观察于何
经廓位,虚实冷热,气之所侵用药。士大夫详推至理矣。
世间最珍贵的,莫过于人。人之中最珍贵的,莫过于眼睛。眼睛是身体的珍宝,能观察万物,光辉照耀无穷无尽,内部连接五脏,外部对应五行。如今患眼病的人,都是因为外受风寒暑湿侵袭,内因忧思喜怒等情绪影响,加上五劳七伤、四气七情失调,或者食用五辛(葱、蒜、韭、薤、兴渠),或喜好淫欲色情,早起接触烟雾,久视灯光,这些都是导致眼病的根源。轻则视力昏蒙,重则形成翳障,甚至长成胬肉遮蔽瞳孔,眼屎多、流泪、眼睑溃烂、眩晕。或者被五风所害,或者被障膜所侵,治疗时不需要只盯着眼睛治,而要先保全元阳(人体先天之本的能量)。务必洗涤心灵、清除杂念,然后服药,根据症状进行治疗,或清洗,或针刺,或烙法,或手术切割,或敷贴封盖,明确辨别病症,务必细心医治。(其功效难以详尽描述。)
眼睛是五脏精华的汇聚,是一身的至宝,就像天上的日月,怎么可以不保护呢!骨头的精华表现为瞳仁(属肾)。筋的精华表现为黑睛(虹膜部分,属肝)。血的精华表现为脉络(属心)。气的精华表现为白睛(巩膜部分,属肺)。肉的精华表现为约束(眼睑,属脾)。人的造化都源于眼睛,目生于肝、心、脾、肺、肾以及肢体、手足。现在的人大多喜好淫欲,耗散元阳,导致五脏不和,上盛下虚,血液不能正常流通,致使热气上攻,眼睛红肿,疼痛、隐涩难开,翳膜遮蔽瞳孔,怕光畏日。或者因为表虚,外受风寒,邪气在里,内部出现头痛发作无常,经年日久,导致翳障,侵入睛内形成内障。或者饮酒过多,常食热性食物,都是损害眼睛的根源。明白辨别上述几种情况,救济那些没有知识的人。凡是有眼证,要考察其义理,根据患病症状进行治疗。
人禀受五行的造化,阴阳匹配形成形体,这就是所说的:五轮有固定的位置,八廓分明的形态。五轮对应五行,按照五方,内应五脏,外出五运,即金、木、水、火、土。人的体质中,都承受着五应的扶持。所谓八廓,分为八卦,对应八廓。所以眼睛是清净的宝物,属于日月通幽之处。与胆脉相连,配合法天道之象,随着瞻视动作,其作用清虚,外通五轮,内应八廓,其经络因此没有正式的名称。内部分别称为天、地、水、火、风、雷、山、泽,对应这八廓,如果有病根,就会显现于证候。凡是观察在哪一经廓位,判断虚实冷热,根据气之所侵来用药。士大夫们详细推究其中的至理了。
Among all things in the world, nothing is more precious than human beings. Among humans, nothing is more precious than the eyes. The eyes are the treasures of the body, capable of observing all things, shining with infinite radiance, internally connected to the Five Zang Organs (Five Viscera), and externally corresponding to the Five Elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water). Currently, those suffering from eye diseases do so because they are externally affected by Wind-Cold, Summer-Heat, and Dampness, and internally influenced by Worry, Thought, Joy, Anger, etc., compounded by the Five Exertions and Seven Injuries, imbalances of the Four Qi and Seven Emotions, consumption of the Five Pungent Spices (Garlic, Leek, Chives, Shallot, Asafoetida), indulgence in lust and sexual desire, exposure to smoke early in the morning, or prolonged gazing at lights. All these are sources of eye disease. Mild cases result in blurred vision; severe cases lead to nebulae and opacities, growing into pterygium covering the pupil, excessive discharge, tearing, eyelid ulceration, and dizziness. Or one may be harmed by the Five Winds, or invaded by membranes. There is no need to treat only the eyes; first, preserve the Yuan Yang (Primordial Yang Energy). One must cleanse the mind and eliminate distracting thoughts, then take medicine, treating according to the syndrome: whether washing, acupuncture, cauterization, surgical incision, or application of plasters. Clearly distinguish the disease, and treat with great care. (The efficacy is difficult to fully describe.)
The eyes are the essence of the Five Zang Organs and the supreme treasure of the body, like the sun and moon in the sky; how can they not be protected? The essence of bone manifests as the pupil (associated with the Kidney). The essence of sinew manifests as the black part of the eye (Iris, associated with the Liver). The essence of blood manifests as the collaterals (associated with the Heart). The essence of Qi manifests as the white part of the eye (Sclera, associated with the Lung). The essence of flesh manifests as the constraints (Eyelids, associated with the Spleen). Human creation stems from the eyes; the eyes originate from the Liver, Heart, Spleen, Lung, Kidney, limbs, and hands/feet. Nowadays, people often indulge in lust, dissipating their Yuan Yang, causing disharmony among the Five Zang Organs, resulting in excess above and deficiency below, preventing smooth blood circulation. This leads to heat rising upward, causing redness and swelling of the eyes, pain, a sensation of grittiness making them hard to open, nebulae obscuring the pupil, photophobia, and fear of sunlight. Or, due to exterior deficiency, external Wind-Cold invades; the pathogenic factor resides inside, causing intermittent headaches. Over years, this leads to opacities invading the interior of the eye, forming internal cataracts. Or, excessive drinking and frequent consumption of hot-natured foods are all sources of eye damage. Understand and distinguish these formulas/situations to aid the ignorant. For any eye syndrome, examine its principles and treat according to the specific symptoms.
Humans inherit the creation of the Five Elements, formed by the matching of Yin and Yang. This is called: the Five Wheels have fixed positions, and the Eight Palaces have distinct forms. The Five Wheels correspond to the Five Elements, align with the Five Directions, internally correspond to the Five Zang Organs, and externally emerge from the Five Movements (Wu Yun), namely Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. The human constitution relies on the support of these five correspondences. The so-called Eight Palaces are divided into the Eight Trigrams, corresponding to the Eight Palaces. Thus, the eyes are treasures of purity, connecting the profound mysteries of the sun and moon. They connect with the Gallbladder Meridian, aligning with the imagery of Heavenly Dao, following the act of looking, functioning with clarity and emptiness. They externally connect to the Five Wheels and internally correspond to the Eight Palaces; therefore, their meridians do not have formal names. Internally, they are named Heaven, Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, Thunder, Mountain, and Marsh, corresponding to the Eight Palaces. If there is a root of disease, it manifests in the clinical signs. Whenever observing which meridian or palace position is involved, determine the deficiency/excess and cold/heat, and prescribe medication based on the pathogenic Qi invasion. Scholars should carefully deduce this ultimate principle.
