ABSTRACT
Objective:
To observe the effect of acupuncture in the treatment of accommodative myopia in children.Methods:
A total of 76 children with accommodative myopia who met the inclusion criteria were divided into a control group or a test group according to the random number table method,with 38 cases in each group.The control group was given education on eye hygiene,and the test group was treated with acupuncture twice a week for 2 months in addition to the intervention used in the control group.The patient's uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA),refraction,and axial length(AL)were measured before treatment and 1 month and 2 months after treatment.Results:
After 1 month of treatment,there was no significant difference in the UCVA between the two groups(P>0.05);after 2 months of treatment,the UCVA of the test group was better than that of the control group(P<0.05).After 1 and 2 months of treatment,the refraction of the two groups was significantly different from that before treatment(P<0.01),but there was no significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05).After 1 and 2 months of treatment,the AL in the control group was increased compared with that before treatment(P<0.05),while there was no significant change in the test group(P>0.05),and there was no significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion:
Acupuncture treatment can improve UCVA in children with accommodative myopia.
