A new system of acupuncture developed in Denmark utilizing areas on the soles of the feet and palms of the hands increases blood flow to the eye including the retina. This therapy improves vision by increased circulation to the retina, and optic nerve.

Conditions that have improved using these points include macular degeneration, retinal tears, glaucoma, retinopathy, iritis, stroke, optic nerve inflammation and degeneration. Measurable improvements can be documented by your eye Dr.. This NIH article documents improvements and can be shared with your Dr

This technique takes time, 10 treatments can inhibit progression of disease and up to 50 treatments, especially when performed frequently can bring improved vision.

I also encourage patients to include daily use of a peizio pen on the sole and palm points to support retinal blood flow. I encourage patients to keep up with vision specific vitamins and supplements.

Other health concerns esp those that impact circulation can be addressed in conjunction with this therapy to increase effectiveness of treatments. I hope patients maintain contact with their eye Drs to assess and measure progress. Using the acupuncture protocol does not interfere or complicate your Drs treatments which can be done simultaneously. I often find that combining acupuncture with Western Medicine gives good results.

* Improvement has been shown for wet or dry macular degeneration, Stargardt’s, retinitis pigmentosa, and diabetic retinopathy
