Objectives : The aim of this study is to report the effect of long-term acupuncture on a amblyopia derived from astigmatism. Methods : A 39-month-old-female child presented with decreased visual acuity with simple astigmatism and amblyopia in the left eye. She took long-term acupuncture treatment once or twice a week for almost four years. And the autorefractor follow-up were conducted per every 6 months. Results : At the initial visit, naked eye visual acuity was 0.1/0.7(OD/OS), Sph. +0.00D, Cyl. -2.25D, AXIS 148° in the right eye, and Sph. +0.00D, Cyl. -0.25D, AXIS 49° in the left eye. After acupuncture treatment for about 4 years without correctional glasses, the visual acuity of the right eye was 1.0, the right eye had Sph. +0.00D, Cyl –0.50D, AXIS 146°, and the left eye had Sph. -0.25D, Cyl –0.50D, AXIS 154°. The visual acuity was maintained until 1 year follow up as 0.9/1.0(OD/OS). Conclusions : This study shows the possibility of using acupuncture treatment for amblyopia derived from astigmatism.
