中医在小儿针眼治疗中的应用

Application of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the Treatment of Pediatric Hordeolum

摘要: 针眼为临床中常见的小儿眼科疾病，病情常会反复发作，致使患儿长时间承受痛苦及不适。目前现代医学治疗主要以局部抗菌药物为主，但其存在起效时间相对较长的局限性，且长期给药可能诱发眼表的不良反应。相比之下，中医治疗小儿针眼疗效确切，且副作用较小，更易于受到患儿及家属的接纳，具有显著的优势。本文总结分析近年来中医治疗小儿针眼的研究成果和临床实践经验，旨在更好地指导用药，为后续的研究提供参考和借鉴。

Abstract: Hordeolum represents a common pediatric ophthalmic condition encountered in clinical practice, characterized by a tendency toward recurrent episodes that impose prolonged suffering and discomfort on affected children. Current conventional treatment primarily relies on topical antibacterial agents; however, this approach is limited by a relatively slow onset of action, and long-term administration may induce adverse reactions on the ocular surface. In contrast, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) offers a more favorable therapeutic profile for pediatric hordeolum, demonstrating reliable efficacy with fewer side effects, thereby gaining greater acceptance among both children and their caregivers. Given these significant advantages, this article synthesizes and critically evaluates the research findings and clinical practical experience pertaining to TCM treatment for pediatric hordeolum in recent years, with the aim of optimizing therapeutic guidance and providing a reference for future investigations.
