ZHANG Ren’s academic characteristics of acupuncture for refractory eye diseases in modern times with "homotherapy for heteropathy"
This paper introduces the academic characteristics of Professor
ZHANG Ren
in treatment with acupuncture for refractory eye diseases in modern times
guided by "homotherapy for heteropathy" (same therapy for different diseases sharing the same pathogenesis). The refractory eye diseases in modern times include a variety of conditions such as glaucoma
macular degeneration
diabetic retinopathy
high myopia and its complications
dry eye
cortical visual impairment and genetic eye diseases. The same therapy is used because these diseases share the similar location and pathogenesis. Professor
ZHANG
optimizes the methods of acupoint selection and provides the comprehensive prescriptions
"basic prescription
prescription based on disease differentiation
and supplementary prescription". A variety of acupuncture manipulation techniques are operated in clinical practice
such as compound needling methods
penetration needling
manipulations for promoting
qi
movement and conducting
qi
flow. "Early
regular and persistent" treatment is the common requirement with "the same acupoints
the same prescription and the same acupuncture method" as well as at "the same time". It is also proposed that the treatment should be provided flexibly according to the different symptoms
"identifying the differences within similarities".
