虽然在中国文化中,外科通常不被视为医疗实践的主要部分,但在隋朝(公元581-618)和唐代(公元618-907),外科在眼科领域显示出显著的繁荣。有迹象表明,它与印度的内外科思想密切相关,并传递给中国。这一证据可以在历史记录、通俗文学以及医学著作和汇编中找到。有趣的是,这种传播的起源可以在汉末佛教传入中国(公元25-220年)期间出现的中国佛教典籍以及随后的相互接触中看到。
Although in Chinese culture surgery has not usually been seen as a major part of medical practice, during the Sui (A.D. 581–618) and the Tang dynasties (A.D. 618–907) it showed a marked flowering in the field of ophthalmology. There are indications that it was closely related to Indian medical and surgical ideas which were transmitted to China. The evidence is found in historical records, popular literature and also in medical works and compilations. Interestingly, the origins of this transmission are seen in Chinese Buddhist canonical literature which emerged during the introduction of Buddhism into China in the late Han period (A.D. 25–220) and the mutual contacts which followed immediately thereafter.
