Abstract

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.
