"These are presbyopic glasses?"
Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan each held a pair of presbyopic glasses and looked around curiously.
After Li Yuan's birthday, the news of Mo's curing presbyopia spread in Chang 'an. Elder Hua and Sun Simiao couldn't wait to go to Mo's house and try the glasses themselves.
Although they took good care of themselves, they were old and had different degrees of presbyopia. After putting on the glasses, their vision was as clear as when they were young.
"This thing is amazing." Sun Simiao exclaimed. He was old, so it was difficult for him to see patients and write prescriptions. With the help of the glasses, it would be very convenient.
"Who would have thought that the secret to curing presbyopia was hidden in the small hole imaging." Hua Yuan also clicked his tongue. The Medical School was obsessed with medical skills and paid attention to taking medicine to cure diseases. If it went on like this, they might not be able to overcome presbyopia even after a thousand years.
Meton explained, "The small hole imaging is a reflection of a straight line, but our eyes are a reflection of a curved surface. They are very similar, but presbyopia is …"
As Meton spoke, he drew the reason for presbyopia on a piece of paper.
"I see." Hua Yuan was a famous surgeon. Hearing this, he immediately understood and sighed, "It seems that Mo Hospital will have a separate department, ophthalmology!"
Sun Simiao nodded solemnly. The eyes were the most fragile organ in the human body. For a long time, once there was a problem with the eyes, even Hua Tuo couldn't save it. Who would have thought that presbyopia couldn't be cured with medicine, but with external help?
Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao couldn't help but look at each other. With the continuous prosperity of the Medical School, there were gradually different voices in Mo Hospital. They believed that the Medical School could be separated from the Mo Family.
However, now it seemed that without the support of the Mo Family, the Medical School would soon return to its original state. Perhaps the Mo Family and the Medical School were destined to be separated in the future. At least, as long as Mo Jiazi was still alive, the Medical School would not be separated from the Mo Family.
"How much is the price?" Sun Simiao asked with concern.
If this thing was promoted to the Tang dynasty in the future, few people would be able to afford it if the price was too high.
"A pair of presbyopic glasses!" Meton thought and said.
"A pair of coins?" Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan exclaimed.
Meton was stunned. Looking at the two elders, he couldn't help but carefully say, "How about 500 coins? If that's not possible, we can negotiate the price!"
Hua Yuan waved his hand and nodded, "Fine, 500 coins it is!"
Such a sparkling and translucent object that was comparable to jade only cost five hundred copper coins. The two of them couldn't help but feel like they were dreaming. Furthermore, five hundred copper coins would definitely allow the old man's eyes to be reborn. Anyone would think that it was extremely worth it.
. Mememe... profiteer... but if they knew the price of's, they, they would's, if they, they, they, when they, they knew ''... of it, ''............
Soon, the three of them discussed some matters regarding the construction of the Qu Chi Fang Medical School and were about to get up and leave.
.................... calling...
Now that Black Five was learning from the two Divine Physicians, it wasn't wrong for him to address them as his teacher.
.............. '' ''t't......... s
"His Majesty has specially requested for Young Master to accompany him." Mo Wu paused for a moment before continuing.
Meton was puzzled, but he could only follow the two of them.
The carriage quickly arrived at the Imperial Palace. The three of them alighted and saw that Li Shimin was already waiting for them outside the Hall of Governance.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!" The three of them bowed.
"You may dispense with the formalities!" Li Shimin raised his arm and said.
"Your Majesty, but the Empress's condition …" Sun Simiao stood up and hurriedly asked.
"Many thanks for Divine Doctor Sun's pointers. This empress's condition has improved greatly," said Empress Zhangsun as she walked out of the hall. She was dressed in palace attire and looked elegant and graceful.
"That's good!" Sun Simiao's heart calmed down slightly.
"Your Majesty, may I know …" Hua Yuan was puzzled. Since the Empress Niangniang is safe and sound, I wonder what important matter Li Shimin summoned her here.
Li Shimin pondered for a moment before saying, "Today, I have summoned the two of you because I have a question to ask."
"Your Majesty, please speak!" Hua Yuan said.
"I believe the two of you already know that presbyopia has been cured by the Mo Family. The elderly can be corrected with presbyopia glasses, but how do you treat presbyopia in youths?" Li Shimin looked at the two divine doctors and asked. However, his gaze involuntarily drifted to Mo Jiazi.
"Youths have presbyopia!" Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao looked at each other.
Hua Yuan's heart skipped a beat. "Could Your Majesty be referring to the symptoms of youths studying hard all year round, causing their vision to become blurry when they look afar?"
He had encountered such patients before. When he heard Li Shimin's words, he immediately understood. The symptoms were very similar to presbyopia. However, presbyopia was difficult to see clearly at close range, while youths were unable to see clearly from afar.
"Indeed, it is as Divine Doctor Hua said!" Li Shimin nodded.
Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao couldn't help but laugh bitterly in their hearts. No wonder Li Shimin specifically asked Meton to come. It turned out that the attending physician today wasn't them, but Meton.
"Minister, here is a pair of presbyopia glasses. Has Your Majesty tested it before to see if it works?" Sun Simiao took out a pair of presbyopia glasses and asked.
Li Shimin shook his head. "I have already tried this. Not only did it not improve, it even worsened. Even walking became difficult."
"If that's the case, I'm afraid there's nothing we can do!" Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan shook their heads. When it came to presbyopia, the medical world was practically a blank slate. Naturally, they wouldn't know how to treat it.
In that instant, everyone's eyes focused on Moton. Since Moton was the one who discovered and found a cure for presbyopia, it was likely that only Moton could cure the young man's vision problem.
Meton saw the situation and could only step forward. Li Shimin probably had the same intention for asking him to come.
"This is a short-sighted phenomenon!"
As soon as Moton opened his mouth, everyone was delighted. If Moton could name the eye disease, then there was a great chance of curing it.
"Presbyopia in old age makes it difficult to see near objects clearly, but distant objects are normal. Myopia is normal for near objects, but distant objects are blurry. It most often appears in youths who read books. In severe cases, one can't see a person's face clearly even if they are close at hand. It's almost like they are lying on the book while reading," Meton explained.
"Yes, that's it!" Empress Zhangsun said eagerly.
Li Shimin's face couldn't help but darken when he heard this. "Is it possible to recover from this myopia?"
Meton shook his head. "If it's short-term acute myopia, it's possible to recover. If it's caused by long-term reading habits, I'm afraid it's permanent."
Empress Zhangsun's face paled when she heard this. Her body couldn't help but sway.
Li Shimin couldn't help but clench his fist and said, "Then can it be like presbyopia that can make glasses that can improve myopia?"
Meton nodded and said, "In theory, presbyopia and myopia must be related. The Minister is confident that he can make glasses for myopia."
Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun finally let out a sigh of relief.
"However, myopia is different from presbyopia. Everyone's situation is different. I'm afraid that only by seeing the real person can we determine how to make glasses for myopia," Merton said.
Presbyopia was a function of the human body. The degree was roughly the same for every age. However, myopia wasn't the same. Meton had seen a young boy with a thick bottom of a wine bottle in his previous life.
"Come in! Let Meton examine you. "Li Shimin sighed.
A young girl dressed in palace attire walked in leisurely from the inner hall. Meton raised his head and saw who it was. He couldn't help but open his mouth.
