عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمٍ مَوْلَى عَلِيِّ بْنِ يَقْطِينٍ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَلْقَى مِنْ رَمَدِ عَيْنَيْهِ أَذًى قَالَ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ (عليه السلام) ابْتِدَاءً مِنْ عِنْدِهِ مَا يَمْنَعُكَ مِنْ كُحْلِ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عليه السلام) جُزْءُ كَافُورٍ رَبَاحِيٍّ وَ جُزْءُ صَبِرٍ أُصْقُوطْرَى يُدَقَّانِ جَمِيعاً وَ يُنْخَلَانِ بِحَرِيرَةٍ يُكْتَحَلُ مِنْهُ مِثْلَ مَا يُكْتَحَلُ مِنَ الْإِثْمِدِ الْكَحْلَةُ فِي الشَّهْرِ تَحْدُرُ كُلَّ دَاءٍ فِي الرَّأْسِ وَ تُخْرِجُهُ مِنَ الْبَدَنِ قَالَ فَكَانَ يَكْتَحِلُ بِهِ فَمَا اشْتَكَى عَيْنَيْهِ حَتَّى مَاتَ.
583. Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr, from Suleym the slave of Ali Bin Yaqteen, who has said: He said: ‘I had conjunctivitis in my eye which hurt. ‘Abu Al-Hassan  wrote to me about it initiating from himself ; ‘What is preventing you from applying the application of Abu Ja’far , a part of Rabahiyya Camphor, Aloe of Asqutry, crushed together and sifted by silk. You should apply from it like the application from the powder, once in a month. It would chase away every illness in the head and exit it from the body’. He said, ‘He used to apply it, and had no complaints for his eyes until death’.
