Abstract:AIM: To observe the effects of honghua injection iontophoresis combined with acupoint stimulation in the treatment of traumatic vitreous hemorrhage.
METHODS: There were 100 cases 113 eyes with traumatic vitreous hemorrhage in our study. Sixty cases 71 eyes were treated with p-aminomethyl benzoic acid(PAMBA)0.2g+9g/L sodium chloride injection 10mL, after diluted it was used in muscle injection combined with oral taking Chinese medicine, at the same time honghua iontophoresis was performed through Jingming, Chengqi, Cuanzhu, Laogong acupoints in observed group. Forty cases 42 eyes were treated only with PAMBA 0.2g + 9g/L sodium chloride injection 10mL, after diluted it was used for muscle injection combined with oral taking Chinese medicine in control group. The changes of visual acuity and fundus were investigated before and after treatment.
RESULTS: Effective rate was 87.32% in the observed group, 59.52% in control group. The result showed a higher effective ratio in observed group than in control group. There was significant difference between two groups(P <0.01).
CONCLUSION: Chinese medicine honghua injection iontophoresis combined with acupoint stimulation is an effective and simple therapy for traumatic vitreous hemorrhage.
