De Egritudini bus Oculorum is a very popular and extensive medieval treatise on eye diseases. This paper aims at exploring the presence of the different languages present in the lexicon of this particular work; special attention is paid to the names of diseases and also to the anatomical nomenclature, following previous works in the area (Norri 1992, 1998). This article will explore this map of etymologies in order to see whether they contributed towards an early standardisation of the specific terminology in this field of science.
