Introduction: Acupuncture is beneficial in improving visual function for myopi periocular acupoints Taiyang can improve contrast sensitivity (CS). In this study, we aim to further investigate the impact of acupuncture at the limbs acupoints-Guangming(GB37) acupoint on visual function, and the neural mechanism of acupuncture at the GB37 acupoint improving visual function through electroencephalography (EEG) microstate.
Methods: A total of 22 myopia were recruited.

Objective: Acupuncture has certain effects to improve myopia visual function, but its neural mechanism is unclear. In this study, we acupunctured at the right acupoint of myopic patients to analyze the effects of acupuncture on visual function and electroencephalographic activity and to investigate the correlation between improvements in visual function and changes in the brain.
Methods: In this study, a total of 21 myopic patients were recruited.
