Chapter 1747: : Dry eyes

Ye Chen followed Yu Shaohua, the person in charge of Chicago's Chinatown, Uncle Tang, after visiting the five Chinese families separately, it was already past five in the afternoon.
After dinner in the hotel, Ye Chen was walking in Chinatown alone.
Chicago Chinatown is also very big here, with three main streets and other small streets and alleys scattered around. I am afraid that it will take an hour or two to go shopping.
However, now that Ye Chen was alone, he remembered that he didn't know where Anne was now, and he was in no mood at all.
Chicago is good in all aspects, and there are also many attractions, but he found that after half an hour of shopping in Chinatown, he was not in the mood.
When returning to the hotel room, Ye Chen took a shower and rested in the room. At about eleven o'clock in the evening, I heard Sun Xiaowei and the others calling, asking about his current situation.
Many domestic media knew that Ye Chen was splashed with royal water in Los Angeles Chinatown. Therefore, Sun Xiaowei saw the news and realized that it was so dangerous in the United States.
After Ye Chen talked with them and let them not worry, he had nothing to do. Ye Chen hung up the phone and lay down and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Ye Chen got up early to wash, put on his clothes, and got dressed. When he went outside, he already saw Yu Shaohua and the others waiting for Ye Chen.
Originally, the members of the exchange group were all around forty or fifty years old. They usually get up very early, unlike those young people who slept late.
Now Ye Chen and them went to the hotel to have breakfast, and then went to the meeting room of the Chinatown branch for a meeting.
Now, in addition to the 70 or 80 representatives of Chinese doctors in Chinatown, there are also Chinese Daily, Overseas Chinese Daily, and other Chinese media in Chinatown in Chicago to cover this exchange meeting.
Ye Chen has become accustomed to this kind of exchange meeting, and he found that in addition to understanding the level of Chinese medicine skills of the overseas Chinese here, the exchange of ideas and experience is also very beneficial to individuals.
The morning exchange meeting was over, and then we took group photos together. After lunch in the hotel, a free clinic was held in Chinatown in the afternoon.
This event has been very popular among the Chinese and overseas Chinese. At the beginning of the afternoon, many Chinese and overseas Chinese came to line up for the free consultation.
From Chinatown in San Francisco, to Chinatown in Los Angeles, to Chinatown in Chicago today, Ye Chen no longer knows how many patients he treated.
However, he knew that it would definitely have an effect, and it would alleviate the pain and financial burden for those patients.
Now when the first patient sat down, Ye Chen saw that it was a middle-aged man with a strong Hokkien accent, and guessed that his hometown should be in Fujian or Taiwan.
"Uncle, hello, what is your name and how old is this year?" Ye Chen asked.
This middle-aged man, who claimed to be Zhou, was born in Fuqing and he was a first-generation immigrant. However, all his children came to Chicago with him.
Now, what makes him uncomfortable is his dry eyes for more than half a year, which is very uncomfortable, especially when he is still working as a kitchen in a Chaoshan restaurant in Chinatown. If the smoke from cooking evaporates, his eyes will be even more uncomfortable.
I heard that when Ye Chen came to the United States, he had been paying attention. He waited until today to see Ye Chen come to Chicago and participate in the free clinic activities. He hurriedly asked for leave and came to line up.
After Ye Chen checked his eyes carefully, and then looked at the tongue and pulse conditions, Ye Chen could confirm that it had something to do with his usual work.
This Uncle Zhou usually uses Ai Li and Wei Di Xi eye drops, which have some effects, but they are not obvious. Moreover, after repeated use, the effect is even more general.
After confirming his symptoms, Ye Chen took the medical record paper and began to write on the medical record paper: "Zhou, male, 45 years old. His eyes were dry for half a year."
"First visit: The patient’s eyes were dry for half a year, and the local hospital diagnosed it as'dry eye syndrome'. He used eye drops such as Aili, Wei Dixi, etc., and it improved. Normally he is busy at work. Checked in the Western Hospital, the right eye vision: 0.03 (corrected 1.5), left eye vision: 0.04 (correction 1.5). Now check: the patient’s conjunctiva is congested. Tongue: red and slightly dry tongue, thin and white coating. Pulse: narrow pulse. TCM dialectic: the symptoms are white and dry Syndrome. The patient’s heart and spleen are darkened, injures the yin and relieves dryness, resulting in dry eyes. Treatment: nourish yin, clear away heat and expel wind."
"15 grams of Asparagus, 15 grams of Ophiopogon japonicus, 15 grams of Scrophulariaceae, 15 grams of Anemarrhena, 12 grams of Nepeta, 12 grams of Parsnip, 12 grams of peppermint, 15 grams of red peony, 20 grams of Salvia, 20 grams of Rehmannia glutinosa Grams, 15 grams of schisandra, 12 grams of mulberry leaves, 10 grams of chrysanthemum. 14 doses, decocted in water, 1 dose a day."
Ye Chen finished writing, and after careful inspection, he gave the prescription to Uncle Zhou and asked him to pay attention to his life and rest. Don’t be too tired. It’s best to take time off for taking medicine recently and take a good rest for a period of time until the dry eyes no longer appear. It’s never too late to work after waiting for symptoms.
After all, no amount of wealth can buy physical health.
The uncle Zhou thanked Ye Chen, and after leaving with the prescription, the diseases that Ye Chen treated the patients were mainly headache, cold, cough, and even toothache.
He believes that if it is those who are seriously ill, such as cancer, it is also impossible to come to him.
Therefore, in the face of these minor illnesses, Ye Chen can easily prescribe a prescription for these patients, and he knows that as long as the patients drink these Chinese medicines, they will basically recover.
However, in the United States, if you go to those big hospitals for medical treatment, in addition to making long appointments and queuing, you must spend several hundred dollars at a time. This will naturally be heartache.
However, here, except to buy medicine by yourself, everything else is free.
From one o’clock in the afternoon until five o’clock in the afternoon, Ye Chen showed all the patients in the queue for free. During this period, when Ye Chen chatted with them, he knew that among the Chinese immigrants to the United States, there was a generation , The second generation, the third generation, even the fourth and fifth generations.
Among them, the first and second generations are still very concerned about the domestic affairs of the mainland. When they see Ye Chen, they are also very enthusiastic. If it is the fourth and fifth generations, they basically no longer pay attention to domestic affairs.
The reason why I came to see Ye Chen this time was because it was free, and because I knew that Ye Chen's Chinese medicine skills were good, and being able to look after the disease would naturally relieve them of their pain.
After watching this free clinic, Ye Chen and Yu Shaohua returned to the hotel to have dinner, and they would fly to New York tomorrow morning.
According to the process this time, there is about one week left. The cultural exchange between the representatives of the Shanghai Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Chinese Americans may be about to end.
However, when I heard that I was going to New York, many members of the representatives seemed very happy. Originally, the representatives of these doctors were the doctors in the tertiary hospitals in Shanghai. They were good in every aspect, so they had friends, relatives, and classmates who immigrated to New York.
In the past, they happened to chat with those friends, relatives, and classmates.
