Understanding and Healing Itchy Eyes Through Traditional Chinese Medicine

Itchy, irritated eyes can be frustrating and persistent, often resisting conventional treatments. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), eye health is closely linked to the liver, making this organ a key focus in addressing eye-related concerns. The liver is believed to “open to the eyes,” meaning its health directly influences vision and eye comfort. When the liver is imbalanced, heat or stagnation can accumulate, causing inflammation and symptoms like itching, redness, or dryness. This pattern, known as “Liver Heat” or “Liver Fire,” is often exacerbated by stress, poor diet, excessive alcohol, or environmental factors like wind and dryness. Patients with Liver Heat may experience red, bloodshot eyes, itching, dryness, a bitter taste in the mouth, irritability, or headaches. These signs reflect internal heat rising to the head and affecting the delicate tissues around the eyes.


The goal of TCM treatment is to address the root imbalance causing the symptoms. For itchy eyes linked to Liver Heat, therapies focus on clearing heat, soothing the liver, and restoring the free flow of qi (energy) and blood. Acupuncture points such as LI4, LV3, LI11, and local points like UB2, Taiyang, and ST2 are used to calm the nervous system, reduce inflammation, and improve circulation to the eyes. Herbal medicine, such as Liver Fire Clear or Long Dan Xie Gan Tang, may be prescribed to cool the liver and reduce inflammation. Dietary and lifestyle adjustments, like avoiding spicy or greasy foods and incorporating liver-friendly options such as leafy greens and chrysanthemum tea, are also recommended. Adjunct therapies like lymphatic drainage and craniosacral therapy further support detoxification and inflammation reduction, offering relief for chronic eye irritation.
