- It addresses superficial visual obstruction caused by Toxic Heat, childhood spots and rashes that endanger the eyes, and night terrors that disrupt sleep.
- The white portions are held to enter the Qi level, while the purple portions enter the Blood level.
- It opens and clears the water passages, expels toxins, and directs Blood downward.
- It is applied to clear urinary blockage, edema, leg Qi, macular rashes, childhood superficial visual obstruction, and toxicity of all kinds.

- Both Zi Bei Chi and Fossilia Dentis Mastodi Long Chi enter the Liver channel to calm the Liver, anchor Yang, and settle fright; Zi Bei Chi, being neutral in nature, is more effective at anchoring Yang and brightening the eyes, whereas Long Chi is heavier and more astringent, making it better suited to calming and quieting while also stabilizing and binding.
- The calcined form, Calcined Cowry Shell Duan Zi Bei Chi, is prepared for use as eye drops.
- Alternative names include Bei Ci and Zi Bei.
