Abstract

|
|
Objectives: The purpose of this study is to report the effectiveness of Korean medicine on treating paralytic strabismus in childhood.
Methods: We treated a 4-years-old patient who was diagnosed with paralytic strabismus with herbal medicine, laser acupuncture, T-acupuncture and moxibustion.
Results: After 5 months of the Korean medicine treatment, the child's strabismus, diplopia, and limitation of abduction were improved. There was no recurrence of the symptoms for 1 year and 4 months.
Conclusions: Korean medicine treatment can be effective in improving symptoms of paralytic strabismus. However, further studies are needed to demonstrate the treatment benefits to abducens nerve palsy.
