Objective: To observe the therapeutic effect of oculo acupuncture therapy in the treatment of cerebral infarction induced hemiplegia. Methods: 58 cases of stroke patients were randomly divided into treatment group (n=30) and control group (n=28). In treatment group, on the basis of medication plus rehabilitation treatment, patients voluntarily accepted oculo acupuncture therapy (acupuncture of Upper Jiao Area and Lower Jiao Area). In control group, patients only accepted medication and rehabilitation treatment. The therapeutic effect was evaluated with Brunstrom’s 6 stages Assessing Method. Results: After 24 sessions of treatment, the ratios of the diseased limbs reaching stage VI and more in functional activity in the patients of treatment group increased from 16.7% (upper limb) and 20.0% (lower limb) before treatment to 70.0% and 90.0% respectively; while in control group, those ratios of the upper and lower limbs increased from 10.7% and 28.6% before treatment to 39.2% and 60.7% separately. There was a significant difference between two groups in the therapeutic effect (P<0.05). Conclusion: Oculo acupuncture plus medication is superior to simple medication treatment in improving functional activity of the hemiplegic limbs.
