简要总结
The purpose of the study is to testify the efficacy of treating oculomotor nerve palsy with ocular electroacupuncture or ocular acupuncture, and to compare the efficacy between these two interventions.
详细描述
The purpose of the study is to testify whether ocular electroacupuncture or ocular acupuncture is effective for oculomotor nerve palsy (ONP), through treating ONP patient for 6 weeks, using self-invented acupoints according to anatomy of extraocular muscles innervated by oculomotor nerve, and using sham acupuncture as controlled group, and try to provide clinical evidence for promoting these new techniques.
