Acupuncture at Jingming (BL 1) requires careful needle depth and direction to avoid injuring the anterior ethmoidal artery and optic nerve. Precise anatomical knowledge is crucial for safe and effective clinical application.

Area of Science:

  • Anatomy
  • Ophthalmology
  • Acupuncture

Context:

  • Jingming (BL 1) is an acupuncture point near the eye.
  • Clinical application requires understanding anatomical risks.

Purpose:

  • To explore anatomical structures and safe needling parameters at Jingming (BL 1).
  • Provide an anatomical basis for safe clinical acupuncture at BL 1.

Summary:

  • Dissection of 48 orbital specimens revealed structures near Jingming (BL 1).
  • Vertical insertion passes through tissues including the medial rectus muscle.
  • Key vessels (ophthalmic artery, anterior ethmoidal artery) and nerves (nasociliary nerve) are located superior to the needle path.

Impact:

  • Needling depth should not exceed 30.36 mm to avoid optic nerve injury.

  • Avoid deep, upward, or backward insertion to prevent anterior ethmoidal artery damage and bleeding.
  • Establishes anatomical guidelines for safe acupuncture at Jingming (BL 1).
