概要 This study was performed to evaluate effect to BCVA and asthenopia of acupuncture, by setting up acupoints stimulation, sham acupoints stimulation and sham acupuncture needle. 7 subjects who complained of asthenopia were recruited for this study. UB 2, LI 4 and Taiyang points were stimulated by acupuncture for 10 min. On the different day, the same subjects received sham acupoints for 10 min at 5 cm apart from acupoints.The other day, the same subjects received tapping needle tube without acupuncture at above acupoints as sham acupuncture. VAS in eye fatigue were performed and HR were performed at pre- and post-stimulation. Acupoints stimulation significantly improved BCVA. Acupoints and sham acupoints significantly decrease VAS. Acupoints and sham acupoints significantly decrease HR. The improvement of BCVA and decrease of VAS suggested the effectiveness of acupuncture. The decrease of HR suggested the acupuncture might rise parasympathetic nerve.
