To probe into a treatment method for increasing clinical therapeutic effect on xerophthalmia.
Forty-five cases were randomly divided into acupuncture group 1, acupuncture group 2 and control group. The acupuncture group 1 were treated with acupuncture based on syndrome types, and the acupuncture group 2 with acupuncture at local acupoints, and the control group with dripping of artificial tears. Local symptoms of eyes, S1T, BUT and FL were observed before and after treatment.
S1T and BUT increased after treatment in the two groups (P < 0.01, P < 0.05), but did not significantly change in the control group (P > 0.05). There were significant differences in change of FL as the control group compared with the acupuncture group 1 and 2. The total effective rate was 86.7%, 66.7% and 33.3% in the acupuncture group 1, 2 and the control group, respectively.
The integral syndrome differentiation acupuncture can improve secretion of tear, increase stability of tear film, improve local symptoms of eyes with a therapeutic effect better than acupuncture at local acupoints and artificial tears.
探讨提高干眼症临床治疗效果的治疗方法。
将45例患者随机分为针刺1组、针刺2组和对照组。针刺1组采用辨证取穴针刺治疗，针刺2组采用局部穴位针刺治疗，对照组采用人工泪液滴眼治疗。观察治疗前后眼部局部症状、泪膜破裂时间（S1T）、泪液分泌试验（BUT）及角膜荧光素染色（FL）情况。
两组治疗后S1T及BUT均升高（P<0.01，P<0.05），对照组无明显变化（P>0.05）。对照组与针刺1组、针刺2组FL变化有显著性差异。针刺1组、针刺2组及对照组总有效率分别为86.7%、66.7%、33.3%。
整体辨证针刺能改善泪液分泌，增加泪膜稳定性，改善眼部局部症状，疗效优于局部穴位针刺及人工泪液。
