Zhangyanming Pian

Zhangyanming Pian is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formulated as tablets, primarily indicated for the treatment of early and middle-stage senile cataracts. It is classified as a non-prescription Chinese patent medicine. The drug's therapeutic actions, rooted in TCM principles, include tonifying the liver and kidney, clearing liver and brightening eyes, dispelling nebula, promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, moistening intestines, and promoting bowel movement. Its complex composition consists of numerous herbal ingredients, which collectively aim to alleviate symptoms associated with liver and kidney deficiency, such as dry eyes, monocular diplopia, and blurred vision. Recent research also explores its potential in conditions like diabetic retinopathy, dry eye syndrome, and retinitis pigmentosa, suggesting broader ophthalmic applications beyond its traditional use.
