Abstract
Objectives : The aim of this study is to report the effect of Korean medicine treatment on bilateral internuclear ophthalmoplegia without abnormal findings on brain magnetic resonance imaging.Methods : The patient was treated by using acupuncture, electroacupuncture treatment and hominis placenta pharmacoacupuncture. The change of eye movement and strabismus were evaluated by comparison the photographs of the extraocular movements of patient. Strabismus also was evaluated by corneal reflex test.Results : Adduction of both eyes were improved after Korean medicine treatment. The amplitude and frequency of nystagmus showed a tendency to decrease in both eyes.Conclusions : Korean medicine treatment should be effective for the idiopathic bilateral internuclear ophthalmoplegia.
