What Are the Traditional Chinese Medicine Therapies for Blurred Vision?

1. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), liver and kidney yin deficiency is commonly seen in conditions of long-term consumption and yin damage, meaning liver blood is gradually dissipated, leading to chronic symptoms such as dizziness, inattention, disturbed sleep, fatigue, and eye strain.

2. Blurred vision is generally an acute symptom that arises over a short period due to factors such as persistent anger, impatience, continuous staying up late, sexual activity, malnutrition, and liver blood deficiency caused by dissipation. This is also related to kidney yin deficiency. In such cases, we must first pay attention to our emotions, especially during spring. It is said that spring is beneficial to the liver, and as wood is associated with sourness, emotions should be kept moderate. We must stay calm. This is a matter of the heart, the primary heart condition.

3. The principle of massage therapy for this condition is to nourish the liver and kidney, soothe the eyes, harmonize qi and blood, relieve eye muscle fatigue, and enhance vision. Clinical observations have shown that massage therapy has a significant effect on blurred vision. For massage therapy, adopt a seated position and use the middle finger's belly to massage Bamboo, Eyes, Crying, Sibai, Pupil, Silk Bamboo Hole, Tianying, Taiyang, and Wind Pool points for 1 minute each.
