This book is one of the famous ophthalmology works of the Qing Dynasty, written by Huang Ting-jing (1704??). It was initially drafted in the sixth year of the Qianlong reign (1741) and underwent four revisions thereafter, but was never published. The disciple Deng Xueli (Zanfu), upon learning of this book, published it in the tenth year of the Jiaqing reign under the new title Orthodox Ophthalmology. Nine years after its publication, it was discovered by Huang Ting-jing's grandson, who compared it with the family's old manuscript and then republished it, restoring its original form. It was released in the 23rd year of the Jiaqing reign (1818), with a total of over 230,000 words, making it the foremost among all ophthalmology monographs throughout history.

The book consists of three volumes. The first volume establishes theories, the second examines symptoms, and the third categorizes formulas. The beginning of the book contains over 20 essays and includes a "Case Record Format". The discussion of symptoms is divided into 12 categories based on causes and 89 conditions based on symptoms. The end of the book includes 229 ophthalmological formulas, explaining the principles of the formulas and detailing modifications and variations. It also includes 19 external treatment formulas, all of which are practical and effective.
