  • Objectives : Strabismus refers to the muscle imbalanced that results from improper alignment of the visual axes of the two eyes. It may be divided into paralytic and nonparalytic strabismus. Paralytic strabismus is primarily result from neurologic problem and nonparalytic strabismus is more strictly opthalmologic problem. We try to improve the remedial value of acute paralytic strabismus. Methods : We treated the cases by use of electra-acupuncture at paralytic extraocular muscles. The cases were treated almost daily and every treatment were enforced 10 minutes. We use the PG-306 electra-acupuncture products(Suzuki Iryoki Co. Japan) and apply the low consequence wave of 1-8Hz Results : We found that two cases were recovered almost three months and one case is treated till now and improved. So we try to apply this treatment in many cases and make the treating protocol of acute paralytic strabismus.

  • Objectives : Strabismus refers to the oculomotor muscles imbalance that results from improper alignment of the visual axes of the two eyes. It may be divided into paralytic and nonparalytic strabismus. Paralytic strabismus is primarily result from neurologic problem and nonparalytic strabismus is more strictly opthalmologic problem. At first we used this method(electroacupuncture at oculomotor muscles) and gained good recoveries for adult paralytic strabismus cases or Miller-Fisher syndrome, and I tried to know the effective and safety for children cases. Methods : We treated the case by using the electroacupuncture at paralytic oculomator muscles. The case was treated almost daily and every treatment was enforced 10 minutes. We use the PG-306 electra-acupuncture products(Suzki Iryoki Co. Japan) and apply the low consequence wave of I-8Hz Results : We found that the case was recovered perfectly in short term and appealed any sides effect or compliant. So I try to apply this treatment in many children cases and make the treating protocol for them.

One Case of traffic accident induced paralytic strabismus (oculomotor nerve palsy) which was treated with electroacupuncture at oculomotor muscles (외안근 전침요법을 이용한 교통사고 유발 마비성 사시 환자의 치험 1례)

  • Objectives : We already reported the effectiveness of this treatment method(electroacupuncture at oculomotor muscles) at the adult and young idiopathic paralytic strabismus patients and Miller-Fisher syndrome. Then I explored the possibility for improvement of the traumatic injury paralytic strabismus case. Methods : I treated the case by using the electroacupuncture at both paralytic lateral rectus muscle lesions. The case was treated almost daily and every treatment was enforced 10 minutes. I use the PG-306 electra-acupuncture products(Suzuki Iryoki Co. Japan) and apply the low consequence wave of 1-8Hz. Results : We gained good results from the case and not observed any sides effect or compliant. So I hope to apply this treatment for traumatic and post-operative nerve injury cases and am sure to make the treatment protocol for them in the future.
