Hello, I'm Dr. Pan. Did you know that a person's physical condition, especially the degree of filling of the internal organs, essence and blood, can be reflected by observing the state of the eyes. Because traditional Chinese medicine believes that the essence of the five internal organs and the six internal organs are all focused on the eyes, the eyes are closely related to the prosperity and decline of the five internal organs. Today I'm going to explain it to you.
First of all, let's talk about where is the essence of the spleen? That is, our upper and lower eyelids. If the spleen essence is insufficient, and the spleen is deficient, it is easy to lead to edema of the eyelids and enlargement of eye bags, especially when you wake up in the morning. At the same time, there may be a feeling of heaviness in the arms and legs, reluctance to move, loss of appetite, bloating and abdominal pain, and loose stools. In this case, we should pay attention to strengthening the spleen and removing dampness, and we can refer to the use of spleen decoction for conditioning.
Secondly, let's talk about where is the essence of the liver? Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the liver is the main eye, and the eyes need the nourishment of liver blood, because the ability of the eyes to see needs the support of blood. Therefore, when the liver blood is insufficient, symptoms such as blurred vision, eye fatigue, dry and itchy eyes, unclear vision, and tears in the wind may occur. It may also be accompanied by symptoms such as dry skin, cold extremities, and cramps. In this case, we should pay attention to nourishing the liver and nourishing the blood, and we can refer to the use of Gui Paeonia Dihuang Tang or Angelica Angelica Blood Tonifying Decoction for conditioning. If the eyes are not only dry and blurry, but also accompanied by itching, redness, swelling and pain, more eye feces and sticky faint yellowing, and at the same time the mood is irritable, depressed, etc., this may be caused by liver fire fumigation. In this case, we should focus on clearing the liver fire, and we can refer to the use of Angelica Longhui soup or Dan Yu Xiaoyaosan for conditioning.
Thirdly, let's talk about where is the essence of the kidney? It's the pupil, which is the position of the pupil. If the eyes are blank, the dark circles under the eyes are obvious, and at the same time, accompanied by the manifestations of kidney deficiency, such as soreness in the waist and knees, sluggish brain response, forgetfulness, frequent urination and urgency, increased nocturia and other symptoms, it is likely to be kidney essence deficiency or kidney qi deficiency. In this case, you can refer to using Wuzi Yanzong Tang or Jinkui Kidney Qi Tang for conditioning.
Finally, let's talk about where is the essence of the heart? is the outer canthus, which is the corner of the eye. If a person's eyes are red and swollen every time, it is usually the corner of the eye, most likely it is heart inflammation. At the same time, it may be accompanied by red tongue, mouth sores, insomnia at night, yellow urine, and burning sensation in the urethra. In this case, if we want to clear the heart fire, we can refer to the use of Dao Chisan or Cinnabar Tranquility Pill for conditioning. If the color of the corners of the eyes is lighter, the color of the eyelids after pulling down is also lighter, and the color of blood is less, and it may be accompanied by the manifestations of qi and blood deficiency, such as dizziness, palpitations, chest tightness and shortness of breath, insomnia and dreams at night, and light color of lips and nails, etc., which is mostly due to heart, spleen, and blood deficiency. In this case, we can refer to using Gui Spleen Decoction for conditioning.
In short, when there is a lesion in the five organs, the eyes may show specific manifestations, which can be used for your reference. However, it is important to remind everyone that if you feel unwell, you should consult a professional TCM practitioner in time to distinguish the syndrome and do not blindly use medication.
