Effect of Xiepi Chure Decoction Combined with Acupoint Application in the Treatment of Pterygium
Objective To observe the clinical effect of Xiepi Chure decoction combined with acupoint application in the treatment of pterygium.Methods From January 2022 to July 2023,64 patients with pterygium in our hospital were selected as the research objects and using the random number table method,patients were divided into control group and study group,with 32 patients in each group.While,patients in the control group were treated with diclofenac sodium eye drops for symptomatic and supportive treatment,and patients in the study group were treated with Xiepi Chure decoction combined with acupoint application on the basis of the control group.The clinical efficacy,Visual Analogue Scale(VAS),clinical symptoms(dry eye,congestive hypertrophy,foreign body sensation)score,eye function index[corneal fluorescence staining score(CFS),tear film rupture time(BUT)]and clinical adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with 78.13%of the total effective rate of the control group,the total effective rate of the study group was higher,reaching 93.75%(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the VAS,CFS scores and scores of eye dryness,congestion and hypertrophy,foreign body sensation were lower,BUT was larger in the study group after treatment(P<0.05).Compared with 9.38%of the incidence of adverse reactions in the control group,the incidence of adverse reactions in the study group was 6.25%,but there was no significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The clinical effect of Xiepi Chure decoction combined with acupoint application in the treatment of pterygium is ideal,which can reduce clinical symptoms,improve eye function indicators,and does not increase the incidence of adverse reactions.It is an effective and feasible treatment plan.
