Abstract
Objectives : Strabismus refers to the muscle imbalanced that results from improper alignment of the visual axes of the two eyes. It may be divided into paralytic and nonparalytic strabismus. Paralytic strabismus is primarily result from neurologic problem and nonparalytic strabismus is more strictly opthalmologic problem. We try to improve the remedial value of acute paralytic strabismus. Methods : We treated the cases by use of electra-acupuncture at paralytic extraocular muscles. The cases were treated almost daily and every treatment were enforced 10 minutes. We use the PG-306 electra-acupuncture products(Suzuki Iryoki Co. Japan) and apply the low consequence wave of 1-8Hz Results : We found that two cases were recovered almost three months and one case is treated till now and improved. So we try to apply this treatment in many cases and make the treating protocol of acute paralytic strabismus.
