There are many reasons why insufficient blood in the liver can lead to flowery and dry eyes, mainly because the liver is considered to have a close relationship with the eyes in TCM theory. One of the functions of the liver is to store blood, and if the liver blood is insufficient, it will cause uncomfortable symptoms such as flowering and dryness in the eyes.
Lack of blood in the liver leads to dizziness and dryness.
The liver opens to the eyes refers to the theory that the five organs of traditional Chinese medicine correspond to the five organs. The blood and qi of the liver are focused on the eyes through the meridians, and the eyes belong to the ends of the liver meridians. The visual function of the eyes depends on the nourishment of liver blood and the discharge of liver qi. Only when the liver blood is sufficient and the liver qi is harmonized, can the eyes play the functions of seeing and distinguishing colors.
1.Insufficient blood in the liver can affect the moisturization of the eyes. In TCM theory, the liver is considered to be the main tendon system, and the tissues of the eye, including the cornea and sclera, belong to the category of tendons. If the liver blood is insufficient, it will lead to insufficient moisture of the eyes, and the lubricating film on the surface of the eyeball cannot be adequately moisturized, resulting in symptoms such as dry eyes, pain, and redness of the eyes.
2.Insufficient blood in the liver can also lead to impaired eye function. One of the functions of the liver is to store blood, and if the liver blood is insufficient, it will lead to insufficient blood supply to the eye, which will affect the normal function of the eye. The proper functioning of the eyes requires adequate nutrition and oxygen**, and a lack of blood supply can lead to symptoms such as decreased vision and flowery eyes.
3.Insufficient blood in the liver can also lead to impaired nerve function in the eyes. In TCM theory, the liver is considered to be the main responsible for emotions, and emotional fluctuations will directly affect the function of the liver, which in turn will affect the nerve function of the eyes. If the liver blood is insufficient, it will lead to the dysfunction of the nerves in the eyes, resulting in symptoms such as bare eyes and dry eyes.
4.Insufficient blood in the liver can also lead to impaired detoxification of the eyes. The liver is considered to be one of the detoxification organs of the human body in traditional Chinese medicine theory, and the lack of liver blood will lead to the impaired detoxification function of the liver, which will lead to the accumulation of toxins in the body, and the accumulation of toxins will lead to damage to the tissues of the eyes, resulting in symptoms such as flowery eyes and dry eyes.
