However, its contents are from 『Dongeuibogam』 「Ahn」. We need to compare 『Mokgwaillam』 with 『Dongeuibogam』 「Ahn」 and find out how they are different or similar. Method : Contents comparison between 『Mokgwaillam』 and 『Dongeuibogam』 「Ahn」 was conducted in contents movement, deletion, transformation and so on. Result : The most content of 『Mokgwaillam』 derived from 『Dongeuibogam』 「Ahn」 even though 『Mokgwaillam』 adjusted several parts of 『Dongeuibogam』 「Ahn」 as a book of ophthalmology. Conclusion : Because 『Mokgwaillam』 contents are not outright and remarkable in ophthalmology field, 『Mokgwaillam』 has its limit. On the contrast, we suggest that 『Mokgwaillam』 could represents speciating ophthalmology field in Traditional Korean Medicine. The reason is that 『Mokgwaillam』 tried to remake 『Dongeuibogam』 「Ahn」 contents as a ophthalmologic book in some aspects ; contents movement, deletion, transformation and so on.
