Abstract:
For HCQ retinopathy with CME, acupuncture combined with periocular injection can be used to improve the CME and protect the central vision. Subsequent research endeavors involving a more extensive cohort and extended observation periods are warranted to evaluate the effectiveness and safety profile of the intervention.
