For instance, in this work, Ibn Sina explains the reason of why he has named a plant as ‘Swallow-Wort’ as follows: Sometimes the newborn nestlings of a swallow suffer from blindness. It was observed that the mother squeezes the extract of this plant onto their babies’ eyelids and then their eyes were healed..
