What Is AcuNova?

AcuNova, also known as “Acupuncture for the Eyes,” is a modern technique developed in Denmark that focuses on stimulating specific points in the hands, feet, and body that correspond to the visual system. Unlike traditional acupuncture, which targets meridians, AcuNova works through the nervous system to activate the brain’s visual processing areas, enhancing blood flow and communication between the eyes and the brain.

This method is often used as a complementary therapy for people seeking alternatives to conventional eye treatments, supporting both visual clarity and overall eye comfort.

Conditions AcuNova May Help With

AcuNova acupuncture has been used to support patients experiencing a variety of eye-related conditions, including:

  • Macular degeneration (dry or wet)
  • Glaucoma
  • Retinitis pigmentosa
  • Diabetic retinopathy
  • Optic nerve atrophy
  • Cataracts (early stage support)
  • Eye strain and visual fatigue
  • Dry or irritated eyes
  • Blurry vision or sensitivity to light

While results vary from person to person, many patients report improved visual clarity, reduced discomfort, and a greater sense of eye relaxation after a series of treatments.

Benefits of AcuNova Eye Acupuncture

The AcuNova approach focuses on improving both eye health and whole-body balance. Benefits may include:

  • Better visual sharpness and contrast sensitivity
  • Reduced inflammation and eye strain
  • Improved blood circulation to the retina and optic nerve
  • Relaxed eye muscles and reduced tension
  • Support for nervous system regulation and stress relief

Because AcuNova is gentle and non-invasive, it can be used safely alongside conventional eye treatments or medications.

What to Expect During Your AcuNova Session

Your first visit begins with a thorough consultation to understand your vision concerns, medical history, and lifestyle factors that may affect eye health.

During treatment, fine sterile needles are placed in specific points on the hands, feet, and other body areas that correspond to visual function.

AcuNova most often involves a series of 10–20 treatments over 1–2 weeks, typically with two sessions per day to stimulate neurological signaling at a therapeutic intensity. As improvement or stabilization is observed, we recommend transitioning to a maintenance schedule tailored to your condition — this may include weekly, monthly, or periodic booster series to help sustain results and support long-term eye health.
