Product Description

The loss of clear eyesight is one of the signs of aging. Brightening the eyes is considered an important part of keeping healthy beauty in Chinese medicine. Different from modern methods such as using surgery, Chinese medicine tries to maintain the natural beauty through promoting health. Herbal recipes for eye care can adjust Qi (vital energy), blood, Yin, and Yang of the human body to keep bright eyes. These herbs can help soothe and refresh eyes, remove corneal opacity, improve eyesight, and prevent eye diseases. They are very helpful for weary and aging eyes, and red and puffy eyes. Some recipes can help remove dark circles around the eyes. These recipes are selected and translated from ancient classical Chinese medicine books including Compendium of Materia Medica (Ben Cao Gang Mu), Medical Secrets of An Official (Wai Tai Mi Yao), and Prescriptions for Caring All People (Pu Ji Fang). These recipes have been proven useful for hundreds of years by billions of people. Historical backgrounds of the recipes are introduced. Explanations in terms of Chinese medicine theories are provided for each recipe. Scientific studies of the herbal ingredients in each recipe are reviewed.
