Discussion on the theory of acupuncture for oculomotor paralysis based on meridian differentiation
Based on diverse clinical symptoms caused by various reasons,this paper,in conjunction with the circulation of meridians,characteristics of acupoints,and the relationship between functions of zangfu organs related to the eyes,conducted syndrome differentiation and meridian tropism,categorizing oculomotor paralysis into four dis-tinct syndrome types:syndrome of liver-gallbladder meridian,heart meridian,spleen-stomach meridian,and kidney meridian.By organizing the ancient relevant meridians literature and sorting out clinical acupuncture acupoint selec-tion regulations,the paper discussed meridian differentiation and acupoint selection,providing a reference for clini-cal acupuncture in the treatment of oculomotor paralysis.
