Reawaken the retina. Restore the vision you thought was gone.
Vision Acupuncture (MicroAcupuncture & AcuNova) is a treatment for degenerative eye conditions. It is not a cure — it helps the eyes heal from the damage caused by the disease by restoring blood flow to damaged retinal cells, reducing inflammation, waking up dormant retinal cells, and reducing oxidative stress.
This specialized procedure is performed by only a select few practitioners worldwide. Patients travel from all over the country to Dr. Hanson's Tampa, FL clinic to restore lost vision.

The program
Our 4-Day MicroAcupuncture Vision Treatment Program in Tampa, FL
Our MicroAcupuncture program for vision loss is designed to be intensive yet convenient, spanning just 4 days in Dr. Hanson's Tampa, FL clinic with sessions lasting about 1 hour each day. During this time, we deliver 4 targeted MicroAcupuncture treatments per session, focusing on stimulating specific acupuncture points to support eye health and potentially improve visual fields and acuity and reverse vision loss.
We start with a comprehensive baseline assessment, including a visual field scan and visual acuity testing using an eye chart. This helps us track your progress accurately from the outset. Each day, you'll receive the 4 MicroAcupuncture treatments, with fine needles placed exclusively in the hands and feet — absolutely no needles are inserted in or around the eyes. We perform follow-up visual field scans daily to monitor improvements in real time.
In our experience, over 90% of patients demonstrate measurable progress in expanding their visual fields during the treatment period. On average, the benefits from one week (4 days) of treatments last approximately 4–6 months, while two weeks may extend results up to about 1 year. We recommend returning for follow-up sessions every 6 months to 1 year or whenever you notice any decline in vision to maintain optimal results.
Clinically, more than 90% of treated patients report enhancements in acuity or visual fields, and even the remaining 10% often experience stabilization of their condition — which is a significant achievement in preventing further deterioration. Reduced vision is a natural part of aging that can't be permanently cured, but MicroAcupuncture can help slow its progression and mitigate its effects. However, ongoing treatments are key to sustaining these benefits, as factors like stress, nutrition, and lifestyle all influence the aging process and treatment efficacy.
This specialized procedure is performed by only a select few practitioners worldwide (Dr. Hanson in Tampa, FL has been providing MicroAcupuncture for Vision Loss for 10+ years), ensuring you receive expert, personalized care tailored to your vision needs. If you're dealing with degenerative eye conditions or age-related vision changes, contact us to learn how MicroAcupuncture could make a difference for you.
