The Acupuncture Treatment of

Blepharospasm

Chief Complaint: inability to open eyelids

Western Diagnosis: blepherospasm
Age:36, sex:female, Occupation:clerk
Medical History: The patient was suffering from the blepherospasm for more than one year.
she could not open her both eye lids voluntarily. she consulted all type of medical doctors
from all over the world. but there is no cure. she has taken botulinium injections around 6
times. she has tried aurveda, homeopathy, and naturopathy also. but their is no
improvement.
OM Diagnosis: I did not go for traditional diagnosis for this patient since my basic
qualification is modern medicine and very sure about this case and I never heard about cure
for this disease.
Treatment Principle: I wish to go for acupuncture, since these kind of cases i got very good
results in acupuncture. So first I first tried to reduce her spasm.
Point Prescription: First I select points surrounding the both eyelids(Ex2, UB1, SJ23, GB1).
then I put Ear press needle in the eye point. Then I choose liver point 3 since liver opens to
the liver. The point Li4 was also added since it is one of the important distal point special
sense organs and face. the treatment was given only acupuncture for 10 days daily for
about 20 minutes. after leaving a 10 days gap same treatment was given for another 10
days.
Herbal Formula: nil

Lifestyle Prescription: nothing

Results: in the first course of treatment she got response on second day itself. she can able
to open her eyelids for around 2 hours. while ending of the first course of treatment she can
able to open her eyes on full days but relapse was there. so after leaving a gap I decided to
go for second course. on the second course for the first three days she got sometimes
unable open her eyelids. after that she did not had any problem.
