After 10 days (acupuncture etc.) I could already read better. Today’s check-up with the ophthalmologist has confirmed the improvement so far. I don’t need an injection because my right eye is dry. Thank you very much Mrs. Noll and the team.”

4. Feel-good factor
The whole team is friendly, the atmosphere is comfortable and “problems” are dealt with and responded to immediately.
5. Personal note
I am simply happy to have found Mrs Noll’s practice. I had already made an attempt to have my glaucoma treated a few years ago, but had not found a therapist who appealed to me.

3. Therapy success
Subjectively: I see more clearly with my right eye, colours are more intense. Also according to eye tests clear improvements. That is how happy I am about it. I consider the eye acupuncture as a chance to delay or even stop the glaucoma disease.

Ms Christel P., 70 years old from Gießen / Germany, reports her eye acupuncture experience
The patient came to us in May 2021 with a diagnosis of macular oedema and a diagnosis of glaucoma. After the 14-day therapy, we received the following experience report by questionnaire:

Very friendly reception
My questions about the treatment of my macular oedema and glaucoma were answered in detail and in an understandable way.
The conversation was characterised by good listening2. Acupuncture
Very pleasant atmosphere
Well-structured procedure: entertaining despite long waiting time

An improvement in the left eye would also be desirable.4. Feel-good factor

Case 11: “I had already had a good eye acupuncture experience elsewhere years ago.”
Mr Tilo H., 84 years old from near Gießen / Germany, reports his eye acupuncture experience
The patient came to Eye Acupuncture Noll in July 2020 with a diagnosis of wet macular degeneration (AMD). Immediately after the treatment we received the following experience report by questionnaire from the patient:
1. Initial contact/information talk
The conversation was very friendly, detailed and relevant. Great importance was attached to the anamnesis of my diagnosis of wet age-related macular degeneration.
2. Acupuncture
I had already had good eye acupuncture experience at another place years ago. There only the forehead was treated, while here many other eye points were needled. I think that this is a good starting point and I am full of hope.
3. Therapy success
I am of the opinion that one cannot speak about success and quality of life after this short period of treatment. The images (right eye and left eye) have already become somewhat similar. Time of day and light source play a big role.
The Amsler grid still leaves a lot to be desired. I have also had a lot of injections of Lucentis into my eye.
4. Feel-good factor
It doesn’t get any better than this!
5. Personal note
I hope that after weeks or months I will also be able to tick “very good” under “therapy success” and I would like to thank Team Noll very much for their loving and competent treatment, as well as their great effort!!!

3. Therapy success
Because of the advanced blindness, I cannot answer this question. I have the feeling that the eyes are working, minimal visual changes.
4. Feel-good factor
I feel safe, in good hands and above all taken seriously. The physiotherapy approach is also great and fascinating.
5. Personal note
I would like to thank you for the great treatment time, the feeling of added value that you have given me and also for the hope that the current condition will at least remain for a while. I will be happy to come back and recommend them to others.

Sleep better (solid deep sleep despite noises in the immediate vicinity). Already since the second week I feel a higher body temperature, there are hardly any cold feet and hands, better concentration / attention. I feel much more “awake”.

Ms Bettina Sch., 77 years from near Mainz / Germany, reports her eye acupuncture experience
The patient came to Eye Acupuncture Noll in September 2019 with the diagnosis dry Macular Degeneration. Five months after the treatment, we received the following testimonial from the patient via Google review:
“After being diagnosed with AMD (dry), I was desperate and looked for ways to stop the disease in its early stages. That’s when I came across Ms Noll. Even the initial consultation gave me a lot of hope.
Mrs. Noll took a lot of time to explain everything to me, e.g. the importance of blood circulation in the eyes.
After only one week of daily treatments (acupuncture and infusions), I could actually read two rows of the eye test more. In total, the initial treatment lasted 2 weeks at a stretch.

Case 6: “[…] Diagnosis of partial photoreceptor atrophy and pigment epithelial displacement of the retina. Nothing could be done about it, was the doctor’s statement.”
Mr Dominique A.-W., 51 years from near Frankfurt / Germany, reports his eye acupuncture experience
The patient came to Eye Acupuncture Noll on 09.09.2019 with the diagnosis “Partial photoreceptor atrophy and pigment epithelial shifts of the retina“. One week after the treatment, we received the following feedback by email from the patient:
“Six years ago by now, I noticed that when I looked to the left while driving, the side strip was wavy. Since this phenomenon did not go away, I was alarmed and immediately went to see the ophthalmologist. The result of the examination was a diagnosis of partial photoreceptor atrophy and a pigment epithelial shift in the retina.
The doctor said that nothing could be done, only observation.
After the initial shock, I immediately set out on my own path with homeopathy, Chinese medicine and the intake of vitamin preparations or the conscious consumption of certain foods. The “blind spot” was (still) so small that I could actually have neglected it.
But the fear of what could come of it grew and grew, and I continued to search for alternative treatments and cures.
That’s how I became aware of Mrs. Noll’s clinic almost two and a half years ago. After a pleasant anamnesis conversation, a fourteen-day intensive treatment with acupuncture and other treatments such as infusions soon followed.
An informal eye test after the treatment as well as my personal perception – sharper vision and better night vision – clearly showed that something had changed in me.
Since then, I come every one to two months for a repeat/refresher treatment and once a year for a five-day intensive treatment. The eye tests at the optician and ophthalmologist during the last two years confirmed an improvement in visual acuity, initially by 0.5 and now by 1 dioptre.
I also have the impression that the “blind spot” has become weaker.
I cannot understand why this system of acupuncture according to Boel is not recognised and supported by the health insurance companies.
The feeling that there is a successful procedure that can stop and even improve the course of chronic eye diseases is certainly a great relief not only for me.”
Case 5: “I, for one, am more than satisfied with my current situation. This is my experience with eye acupuncture according to Prof. John Boel.”
Mr Andreas W., 54 years from near Frankfurt / Germany, employee, reports his eye acupuncture experience
The patient came to Eye Acupuncture Noll on 26.01.2016 with the diagnosis of wet macular degeneration. Three months after the treatment we received the following feedback by letter from the patient:
“On the second day of treatment of the wet macular degeneration, I could already read the time on the wall clock (from a distance of about 2.5-3 metres) without glasses, The infusions have had the effect that my general condition and my immune system have improved considerably since then.
But the best thing about the acupuncture was that the above-mentioned water blister and the dark spot have disappeared to such an extent that I can see through my right eye again reasonably (by my standards, because what’s gone is gone).
In the meantime, I can even drive my car again, which was not possible before. I am more than happy with my current situation […] and can only recommend that everyone try acupuncture. I would and will continue to do it.”
Case 4: “The result of the treatment exceeded my expectations.”
Mrs. Heike G., 53 years from near Frankfurt / Germany, alternative practitioner, reports her eye acupuncture experience

“The result of the treatment exceeded my expectations. My forehead and eye muscles have completely relaxed and my complaints have disappeared. In addition, my vision has improved significantly – both in terms of near and far vision.
So eye acupuncture has helped me to enjoy everyday life again without discomfort.”
Case 3: “My mother would like to tell about her eye acupuncture experience. Today back in Peru, back in everyday life, my mother is going shopping again independently […].”
Ms Sandra G.-S., 53 years old from near Neu-Isenburg / Germany
speaks for her mother, 80 years from Lima / Peru
The patient came to Eye Acupuncture Noll on 12.01.2018 with the diagnosis “dry macular degeneration, very advanced, very poor condition of the eyes”. Four weeks after the treatment we received the following testimonial by letter from the patient:
“The acupuncture treatment including vitamin infusions lasted 14 days. […] And that’s how it was after an eye test too …. Instead of the first capital A on the board as on the first day, after the fourth day my mother could already read through to the second row as if she were at an optician’s, which improved greatly again over the treatment period of 14 days.
On the last day of treatment, my mother could already read through to the middle of the fifth row. […]
Today, back in Peru, back in everyday life, my mother goes shopping again independently and, above all, can read what is on her shopping list without her unloved magnifying glasses!
Her everyday life has changed fundamentally for the better. She is also unrecognisable to us. Full of energy, happiness and joie de vivre!”
