Acupuncture for Glaucoma: What the Evidence Shows

There is no scientific evidence to support the use of acupuncture as a treatment for glaucoma. Acupuncture has been shown to have some benefits for other eye conditions, such as dry eye and age-related macular degeneration, but there is no evidence that it can help with glaucoma.

Glaucoma is a serious eye condition that can lead to vision loss. It is important to see an eye doctor regularly for checkups and to follow the doctor's recommendations for treatment. Acupuncture should not be used as a substitute for medical treatment for glaucoma.
