초록
Objectives : Myopia is a disease which can be easily found in the child and it considers as a prevalent disease. This study has a reference of the literatures of oriental medicine on the myopia to investigate treatment principles of the myopia. Methods : This study is based on the literatures of oriental medicine. Results : According to the literatures of oriental medicine, there were two opposite opinions those could cause myopia. One was 'lack of Yinqi(陰氣)', the other was 'lack of Yangqi(陽氣)'. Originally many scholars thought that myopia was caused by laking of Yinqi(陰氣). The representative scholar was LiGao, and his work is Dongwonsunsangsihyobang(東垣先生試效方). But, some scholars insisted the opposite opinions, and the next generations accepted this opinion. The representative scholar was WangHaoGu(王好古), his work was Chasanangi(此事難知). Euihakgangmok(醫學綱目) published conversely the opinion of LiGao. Therefore, after ages appreciated that LiGao and WangHaoGu(王好古) insisted the same opinions-the cause of the myopia was lack of Yangqi(陽氣). So the most latest generation scholars knew that the cause of myopia was lack of Yangqi(陽氣). Conclusions : Historically many scholars insisted that myopia was caused by lack of 'Yangqi(陽氣)'. But that is the result of false transmission through the generation.
