XXIV. Some Authors make the superficiary Ʋlcer to be fourfold. 1. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, Caligo, a Misti∣ness and Dimness of the Sight. 2. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, Nubecula, a little Cloud; which is deeper than the former. 3. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, Ʋl∣cus ad Iridem, an Ulcer grow∣ing about the Iris, posses∣sing part of the white, and part
of the black of the Eye; by some said to be Albugo, a Pearl in the Eye; which in the Iris appears white, but without it is reddish. 4. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, Ʋlcus simplex Cculi, a simple Ulcer or Erosion of the Cornea in the Eye, which makes it ragged, and of an ash-colour.
XXV. But of all these, the last, which is a Sore of the Eye caused by Erosion, can only be called an Ʋlcer; the Cure of which only we shall here treat of; for that those things which cure or help the latter, will certainly cure the former.
