Acupuncture Relieves Dry Eyes
Acupuncture works well to resolve the symptoms of dry eyes. Treatments nourish the eyes, enabling the body to lubricate the eyes with healthy tear production. The condition of dry eyes is an example of how a small imbalance can lead to big problems. Specifically, a minor deficiency in the eye’s ability to generate lubricant can lead to the debilitating condition of dry eyes.
There are acupuncture points on the face and the body that stimulate tear production. For example, on the lower leg, one very famous point (GB37) has the name “Moisten Eyes.” In addition, distal acupoints (far away) strongly influence the opposite end of the channel. LV3, located on the foot, is a primary point for treating the eyes at the opposite end of the body.
What To Expect
All needles are sterile, single-use, and hair-thin. In fact, you will hardly feel them. Treatments are relaxing – many of our patients fall asleep during their sessions, waking up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.
Acupuncture typically takes between three and six treatments to start showing improvement for dry eyes – it depends on the severity of the condition. Furthermore, a bonus is that treatments have a long-lasting effect. So unlike Western medicines, which rely on constant reapplication, acupuncture seeks to heal your body from the inside out so that you can sustain healthy tear production.

What our Clients are Saying
I’ve had dry eyes ever since my Lasik surgery. The doctor said it would resolve but it never did. That was two years ago. I had been using eye drops about ten times a day to deal with the discomfort. My brother-in-law suggested I try acupuncture. It worked great. The doctor said the treatment “returned my eyes to their normal state”. That’s what it feels like to me. And it’s lasted. Thank you Raleigh Acupuncture for your good work.
Ever since moving here five years ago I had terrible dry eyes. I thought it was allergies, but the doctor ruled that out. After trying everything under the sun, I tried acupuncture. What an amazing experience. It’s like my eyes are back to normal when I was living in Chicago. High praise for Raleigh Acupuncture. They know what they are doing!
Acupuncture treatment helped my chronic dry eyes. Whereas I had to use drops on a daily basis before my treatment, afterwards I didn’t need the drops any longer. The scratchy feeling in my eyes was gone, and my eyes were not nearly as red. I’ve sent two co-workers to Raleigh Acupuncture since being treated, both for eye conditions, and they also got relief. I recommend this practice to anyone struggling with dry eyes.
