Donguibogam 東醫寶鑑
治久年眼生黑花昏暗. 蒼朮 二兩, 椒目(炒) 一兩. 右爲末, 醋糊和丸梧子大, 茶淸下五十丸. 《入門》
Translation
Treats black flowers and dimness of the eyes of many years. Atractylodes lancea 2 nyang; pepper seed (stir-fried) 1 nyang. Powder them, bind with a vinegar paste into pills the size of parasol-tree seeds, and take fifty down with clear tea. — Uihak Immun 入門 (Donguibogam · An)
Clinical commentary 臨床
Two medicinals, both drying, for floaters that have been there for years — the Immun reading them as damp turbidity risen into the eye rather than as a vacuity. The seed of the Sichuan pepper rather than the husk is specified, which is the part held to go downward. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
