Common questions

What is Chinaherb Eye Tonic used for?+

Eye Tonic (Ming Mu Di Huang Wan) is a Traditional Chinese Medicine formulation for supporting eyesight. In TCM terms it nourishes the Liver and Kidney, and it is used for blurred vision, eye fatigue, dryness and discomfort of the eyes, and eyes that are sensitive to wind and light.

Can Eye Tonic help with tired eyes from too much screen time?+

The product's TCM description notes that looking at a computer for prolonged hours and staying up late can lead to blurred vision, sore or dry eyes and tearing, and that taking Eye Tonic is good for improving eye fatigue of this kind. In TCM terms it works by nourishing Liver Blood and Kidney Essence.

Why does an eye formula work on the Liver and Kidney?+

In the Five-Element Theory of Chinese medicine, the Liver stores Blood and the Kidney stores Essence, and visual function depends on the nourishment of both. That is why TCM approaches eye complaints by nourishing the Liver and Kidney — exactly what Eye Tonic is formulated to do.

Should I still see someone about my vision while taking Eye Tonic?+

Yes — a rapid and significant loss of vision should always be taken seriously and checked by a professional. Speak to your healthcare provider if you are pregnant, nursing or on medication, and our consultants can help with how the formula is traditionally used.

Product details

明目地黄丸 / Ming Mu Di Huang Wan

Treats the following symptoms:



Eye Tonic is a formulation for improving eyesight. In the Five-Element Theory, Liver belongs to Wood, Kidney belongs to Water, Water can produce Wood, Liver stores Blood, and Kidney stores Essence. The Essence and Blood of the Liver and Kidney are closely related. Traditional Chinese Medicine treats eye diseases, often starting from the Liver and Kidney. Eye Tonic is a recipe for nourishing the Kidney and nourishing the Liver and improving the vision caused by visual fatigue and various fundus diseases.

Modern people look at the computer for prolonged hours and often stay up late, which will make the Liver Fire rise. This leads to symptoms of blurred vision, eye expansion, sore eyes, dryness and discomfort of the eyes, or tearing. Taking Eye Tonic is also good for improving eye fatigue.

 

BLURRED VISION (EYE PROBLEMS)

Disease description:

The term blurred vision describes the loss of sharpness of one’s eyesight, making objects seem hazy and out of focus. Those affected might only recognize objects or the environment as if they are looking “through a veil”. Eye strain from using screens for prolonged periods or focusing on something for too long without taking a break, driving at night or poor weather can result in blurred vision. Blurred vision may affect one or both of the eyes and depending on the cause, it could either be temporary or permanent. A rapid and significant loss of vision should be taken seriously, as it may be a condition such as glaucoma or cataract. Furthermore, migraine attacks, brain disorders, diabetes or multiple sclerosis can also cause changes in one’s vision.

Explanation according to the Traditional Chinese Medicine:

Chinese medicine believes that visual function depends on the nourishment of Liver Blood and Kidney Essence. Therefore, the loss of Liver Blood and Kidney Essence is the main cause of blurred vision and needs to be nourished.

Possible syndromes causing these problems:

Liver and Kidney Yin Deficiency

Blurred vision, eye fatigue, lusterless hair, flaky nails, dry gritty eyes, eyes that tear-up in the wind, light sensitivity and night blindness.
