13. The symptomes troubling the eyes.

1. Blindnesse and debility of sight, which is caused, by the vice of the brain, not yeelding spirits, or of the animal spirits, not

being lucid, thin, or many, or of the optick nerves, humours, and tunicles; it's cured, if curable, by cephalick purgers, masticatories, gargarismes, apophlegmatismes, vesicatories, & cauteries, &c. oxy∣derkicks, topick roborants, sapphir water, and other ophthal∣micks.

2. The depravation of sight, as duplication of the species, caused, by an unlike position of the eye: Also things seeme inverse, by reason of the mutation of the site of the crystalline humour; and of an other colour, when the cornea or aqueous humour is tinged; false visions are from the vice of the aqueous humour, in∣quinated by vapours or humours; light appearing before the eyes, is by the reflex of the animal spirits, when the waterish humour is condensed above the crystalline. Things seeme perforate if there be a little suffusion in the center of the ball; they are cured, according to the cause, as aforesaid.

3. The vices of the excrets of the eyes, sc. the lema, or copious sordes issuing out of the eyes, chiefely in the night, and time of sleep, which glew together the eyelids, as it were, caused, by the afflux of humours, incras∣sate; they are cured, by evacuation of the body, averters, abster∣sives, and convenient topicks, rose and eyebright water, &c. The ephiphora, which is an impetus of a thin humour, made into the eyes, either cold and aquose, hot, sharp, or salt, from the braine to the annate tunicle, and chiefely to the angles, causing involuntary weeping; is cured by phlebotomy, purgation, revulsiō, discutients, roborāts, exsiccants, astringents, cauteries, vesicatories, the white of an egge in the hot with a linnen cloth, & austere wine in the cold; if the teares are bloudy, use venesection in the foot, emmenonago∣gicks, astringents, alterants, catharticks, & fontanels in the armes & leggs.
