mù形体官窍
概述
The Eye (Mu) is the sensory organ of vision and is considered the orifice of the Liver, one of the five sense organs. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the essence of all five viscera and six bowels converges in the eye, and the Five Wheel theory assigns different parts of the eye to the five viscera.
理論要點
- The eye is the orifice of the Liver, and Liver Qi and Blood nourish the eye to enable vision and color discrimination.

- The Five Wheel theory maps the pupil to the Kidney, the iris to the Liver, the inner and outer canthi to the Heart, the sclera to the Lung, and the eyelids to the Spleen.
- Adequate Liver Blood and harmonious Liver Qi ensure normal visual function.
常見病機
