A Clinical Study on the Decreased Visual AcuityWe observed 79 patients, who visited the Department of Oph. & Otorhinolaryngology in Oriental medicine of Kyung Hee University Medical Center from July 1995 to June. 1996, with the complaint of decreased visual acuity. The results were as follows. 1. In the incidence of decreased visual acuity, men's was $46.84\%$ 수식 이미지(37 cases) and women's was $53.16\%$ 수식 이미지(42 cases), which showed that more women were suffering decreased visual acuity than men. In the incidence of myopic ametropia and astigmatic ametropia among the total patients, men's was $44.62\%$ 수식 이미지(29 cases) and $37.50\%$ 수식 이미지(9 cases) each, and women's was $55.38\%$ 수식 이미지(36 cases) and $62.50\%$ 수식 이미지( 15 cases) each, which also showed that more women were suffering myopia and astigmatism than men. 2. The average age of patients was 11.08 years at the first visit. The most were the patients from 6 to 15 years old, with 63 cases($79.74\%$ 수식 이미지). 3. The age of onset in the decreased visual acuity was mainly 6∼10 years with 45 cases($56.96\%$ 수식 이미지). In the case of myopic ametropia and astigmatic ametropia, the age of onset was also mainly 6∼10 years with 65 cases($60.00\%$ 수식 이미지), and with 12 cases($50.00\%$ 수식 이미지) each. 4. In ABO blood type, the frequency was, A type, O type, B type and AB type in order. In men, O type was the most, while in women, A type. 5. In the liking for cool or warm food or tepidity, the liking for cool food was the most in both men and women. 6. The type of decreased visual acuity was mainly myopic ametropia with 65 cases($82.28\%$ 수식 이미지). Astigmatic ametropia was $30.38\%$ 수식 이미지 with 24 cases, hyperopic ametropia $2.53\%$ 수식 이미지 with 4 cases, and the decreased visual acuity accompanied by amblyopia $7.59\%$ 수식 이미지 with 4 cases. 7. At the first visit, the average visual acuity of O.D. was 0.29 and that of O.S.. 0.24, which showed that O.S.. is worse than O.D.. The visual acuity below 0.2 was the most, $63.29\%\;in\;O.D..\;72.15\%$ 수식 이미지 in O.S.. 8. In the treatment period, 4∼7 weeks occupied $35.44\%$ 수식 이미지 with 28 cases, 8∼11 weeks $30.38\%$ 수식 이미지 with 24 cases, so the treatment period was mainly these two periods with 52 cases($65.82\%$ 수식 이미지). 9. The average frequency of acupuncture treatment per week was mainly 2.1∼3.0 times with 45 cases($56.96\%$ 수식 이미지). In this case, men was 24 cases($53.33\%$ 수식 이미지) and women 21 cases($46.67\%$ 수식 이미지), so men was more than women. 10. The frequency of herbal prescription was mainly Gamijungjitang and Gamijingjibogansan with 76 cases(85.39%)

We observed 79 patients, who visited the Department of Oph. & Otorhinolaryngology in Oriental medicine of Kyung Hee University Medical Center from July 1995 to June. 1996, with the complaint of decreased visual acuity. The results were as follows. 1. In the incidence of decreased visual acuity, men's was 46.84%(37 cases) and women's was 53.16%(42 cases), which showed that more women were suffering decreased visual acuity than men. In the incidence of myopic ametropia and astigmatic ametropia among the total patients, men's was 44.62%(29 cases) and 37.50%(9 cases) each, and women's was 55.38%(36 cases) and 62.50%( 15 cases) each, which also showed that more women were suffering myopia and astigmatism than men. 2. The average age of patients was 11.08 years at the first visit. The most were the patients from 6 to 15 years old, with 63 cases(79.74%). 3. The age of onset in the decreased visual acuity was mainly 6∼10 years with 45 cases(56.96%). In the case of myopic ametropia and astigmatic ametropia, the age of onset was also mainly 6∼10 years with 65 cases(60.00%), and with 12 cases(50.00%) each. 4. In ABO blood type, the frequency was, A type, O type, B type and AB type in order. In men, O type was the most, while in women, A type. 5. In the liking for cool or warm food or tepidity, the liking for cool food was the most in both men and women. 6. The type of decreased visual acuity was mainly myopic ametropia with 65 cases(82.28%). Astigmatic ametropia was 30.38% with 24 cases, hyperopic ametropia 2.53% with 4 cases, and the decreased visual acuity accompanied by amblyopia 7.59% with 4 cases. 7. At the first visit, the average visual acuity of O.D. was 0.29 and that of O.S.. 0.24, which showed that O.S.. is worse than O.D.. The visual acuity below 0.2 was the most, 63.29% O.D.72.15% in O.S.. 8. In the treatment period, 4∼7 weeks occupied 35.44% with 28 cases, 8∼11 weeks 30.38% with 24 cases, so the treatment period was mainly these two periods with 52 cases(65.82%). 9.
