How Advanced Is Medical Knowledge & Tech in Eorzea?

[gumas]

medical knowledge? i say lower than our current world tech. frankly speaking i never see any scene/dialogue regarding someone getting medical operation or someone getting a medicine or some sort, even throughout my play when i see someone sick on bed or visiting sick ward, i never see a medical contraption around it, just a bed and a drawer beside it, thats all. the best i can think is probably like herbal tea or leaf patch than an actual medicine if there is any.

probably because magic play larger part when it come to healing, when the healing fail, then the medical knowledge act as a support/backup plan. i mean, if medical knowledge is far more potent than healing, then we as healer will be busy throwing regular/high/X potion inside dungeon instead of casting cure skill lol

off course this all based as us on eorzean side. the empire side still remain mystery but considering they have something like producing gas weapon and even clone tech. i say they maybe more or less on the same as our current tech.
