治血虛眼昏. 生乾地黃ㆍ熟地黃ㆍ玄參ㆍ石膏 各一兩. 右爲末, 蜜丸梧子大, 空心茶淸下五七十丸. 《入門》
Translation
Treats blood vacuity with dim eyes. Dried raw rehmannia, prepared rehmannia, scrophularia and gypsum 1 nyang each. Powder them, make honey pills the size of parasol-tree seeds, and take fifty to seventy on an empty stomach with clear tea. — Uihak Immun 入門 (Donguibogam · An)
Clinical commentary 臨床
Four medicinals, two of them the same root raw and cooked — the raw to cool the blood and the prepared to fill it, which is the whole method. Gypsum in a blood tonic is the Immun's concession to the chapter's rule that there is no cold in eye disease. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
