“…Pertinent research indicates that acupuncture, with its simplicity and negligible adverse effects, is fairly effective in treating oculomotor nerve palsy.

Background: Isolated ischemic oculomotor nerve palsy as a type of ophthalmic disease is rarely observed in clinical practice. Quality of life is frequently impacted by isolated ischemic oculomotor nerve palsy due to its lack of treatment options and long-term visual impairment. We describe an acupuncture-treated instance of isolated ischemic oculomotor paralysis. Methods: Acupoints including Jingming (BL 1), Chengqi (ST 1), Cuanzhu (BL 2), and Sizhukong (TE 23) on the right side, and bilateral Fengchi (GB 20), Waiguan (TE 5), Hegu (LI 4), and Zulinqi (GB 41) were selected for needling. Each treatment lasted for 30 minutes, once every other day. Acupuncture treatment was administered for a total of 11 times. Results: Acupuncture is a promising treatment option for isolated ischemic oculomotor nerve palsy. Conclusions: Ischemic oculomotor nerve paralysis can affect the quality of life of patients. Acupuncture intervention can promote the recovery of the disease is a very effective treatment measure.

Background: The aim of this report is to report the effect of Acupotomy on Oculomotor Nerve Palsy. Methods: A 78-year-old male patient was diagnosed with Oculomotor Nerve Palsy and complained of Diplopia, right eye movement disorder. This patient received acupuncture treatment on the anterior border of posterior tubercle of cervical transverse process, upper border of right zygomatic arch, right Jingming acupoint (BL1). Results: As a result of 20 acupotomy treatments from November 14 to February 20, adduction in the right eye completely improved, and the diplopia which occurred when looking to the left also disappeared. Conclusion:This study suggests that acupotomy treatment may be effective in eye movement disorder caused by oculomoter nerve palsy and diplopia.
