Quick Facts
- Patient: 54-year-old female
- Condition: Ischemic Optic Neuropathy – Optic neuritis in right eye (OD)
- Context: “Curtain” over vision; MRI/CAT negative; no inflammatory/traumatic cause; stress suspected. Prior steroids failed.
- Protocol: Duration from onset to start not specified. 18 treatments over ~2 months. Eye Protocol (point 2). Weekly acupuncture.
- Outcome Highlights: Acuity ~20% better (to 20/40); field defects 14 → 9 at series end; → 5 one month later.

Case Details
Medical History: None reported
Medications at Start: Prednisone (discontinued)
Practitioner Notes:
- Continued improvement after the series ended
- Color fields expanded; fewer blind spots
- Patient noticed clearer vision near/far, better peripheral awareness
Patient Comment:
“It’s a lot less and so a lot less disturbing.”
Follow-up: Lost to follow up
Related science:
-
Coordinated low-intensity therapies — combining gentle electrical stimulation, millimeter-wave fields, and low-intensity laser, synchronized to patient rhythms — improved acuity and fields in partial optic-nerve atrophy across etiologies (n=443 eyes; vascular subgroup n=88, Baranov 2016), paralleling this case’s VA/field gains.
-
Magnet-based regimens enhanced conduction and perfusion in glaucoma (n=634 eyes, Kamenskikh 2015). In addition, transcranial magneto-laser therapy elevated neurotrophic factors and improved afferent conduction (n=217 eyes; 126 treated vs 91 controls, Egorov 2016), supporting mechanisms of optic-nerve recovery.
