Instructions for Use

Take 1 pill at a time, dissolve it in water, and apply it to both inner corners of the eyes using a copper chopstick. For chronic conditions such as blood stasis and eyelid ulcers, this treatment has never failed to cure. For sudden red, itchy eyes, apply it just 2–3 times for a cure; some patients with blood stasis filling the entire eye have seen it completely dissipate upon using this remedy, restoring vision as clear as before the illness.
