Suwayd bin Ghafalah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates: We met Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), and in the winter season he was wearing (only) two garments. We said: "Do not be deceived by this land of ours; this land of ours is bitterly cold, it is not like your land." He said: "I used to feel the cold severely (before). Then, when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me to Khaybar, I said: 'My eyes are sore.' So he (peace and blessings be upon him) applied his saliva to my eyes, and after that I never felt cold or heat, and my eyes never became sore again."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Habib bin Abi Thabit except Sa'ad bin Sulayman, and Hasan bin Husayn is alone in narrating it."
There is also a difference over the name of Sa'ad bin Sulayman: some say "Sa'ad" and some say "Mas'ud".
