Description

 The invention relates to ophthalmology and physiotherapy.

 A known method of reflex acupuncture effects on the optic nerve and tract (Gavaa Luvsan. Traditional and modern aspects of external reflexology. M.: Nauka, 1986, p.334). Its disadvantage is the limited effectiveness and duration of treatment.

 A known method of treating the optic nerve and tract using magnetic stimulation (Linnik LF, Shlygin VV, and others. A method of treating diseases of the optic-nervous apparatus) (RF patent 2149609).

 Its disadvantage is also in the limited effectiveness and duration of treatment.

 The objective of the invention is to increase the efficiency and reduce the duration of physiotherapeutic treatment.

 For this, acupuncture effects on biologically active points VI Qing-min, TR 23 Sy-chu-kun, VV 20 Feng-chi, RS 13 i-min, C 7 shen-men, GI 4 he-gu, F 5 li are additionally carried out -go, VV 37 guan-min associated with the optic nerve and tract, for 40-90 minutes for 7-10 sessions, and in the process of acupuncture exposure, the places of needle insertion are stimulated with a pulsed magnetic field with asymmetric pulses with an amplitude of 75 mT, with a steep leading edge of no more than 50 m / s, with a frequency of less than 1 Hz, with a constant or changing polarity.

 Additionally, through the needles, an electric current can be applied due to the electromotive force induced by the magnetic field.

 The invention is illustrated in figure 1 and figure 2, which shows a diagram of the mutual orientation of acupuncture needles, external pulsed magnetic fields and local currents due to acupuncture, pre-existing in the body of electric fields and electromagnetic induction.

 In FIG. 1 shows a diagram of the introduction of acupuncture needles, in the vicinity of which a pulsed magnetic field acts as a generator. Here, a pulsed magnetic field generator can have a twofold effect, namely, due to the asymmetric shape of the pulses, its high-frequency components of the Fourier decomposition induce an electromotive force (EMF) in the needles 1 (like an antenna), which is proportional to the derivative of the electromagnetic field.

 Secondly, due to the law of electromagnetic induction, an external pulsed magnetic field induces EMF in the pre-existing natural effective electrical circuits of biological surface microstructures in which local currents flow due to the electric field of the heart and muscles during their excitability and contractions.

 Depending on the clinical indications, the duration of one session is 40-90 minutes, and the total number of sessions is from 7 to 10.

 Figure 2 shows acupuncture needles 1, wires or pairing resistors 2 of acupuncture needles 1 with an inductor 3, an external magnetic field generator 4.

 It can be seen that the induced EMF in the inductor 3 redistributes in a certain way the electric potentials between the needles 1, which can cause a regular local electric current between them in the surface tissues of the body.

 The method is as follows.

 The patient is in a supine position. Acupuncture needles are introduced in a standard manner at the indicated biologically active points. In the vicinity of the injection sites, sequentially or in parallel, depending on the number of magnetic stimulants available, for example, such as the Medoptika MS-7 type, they are exposed to a pulsed magnetic field, and for each place for 5-7 minutes.

 Treatment is carried out once a day for a time of the order of 40-90 minutes for 7-10 days.

 The course of treatment is repeated every six to twelve months, depending on the dynamics of the deterioration of the initial therapeutic effect.

 Clinical examples.

 1. Patient A. The diagnosis of partial atrophy of the optic nerve. Before treatment, visual acuity of 0.2 left eye and 0.25 right eye. After a course of acupuncture and magnetic exposure, visual acuity became 0.4 left eye and 0.4 right eye.

 2. Patient T. The diagnosis is amblyopia. Before treatment, visual acuity of 0.3 left eye and 0.4 right eye. After the course of the proposed method, including acupuncture, magnetic and electrical effects, visual acuity became 0.5 left eye and 0.5 right eye.

 Thus, the combination of magnetic stimulation and acupuncture exposure increases efficiency and reduces treatment time.
