Which point is located in the hollow on the lateral side of the orbital margin about 0.5 cun lateral to the outer canthus?

• A. SJ 23
• B. GB 1
• C. GB 2
• D. GB 3

Answer: (B)

The statement describes a precise eye-area landmark: the hollow at the lateral edge of the orbital margin, 0.5 cun lateral to the outer canthus. That location is Gallbladder point one. It is the best answer because it matches the exact landmark used to identify this point on the Gallbladder channel.

In practice, this point is used for eye-related issues such as redness, swelling, pain, and tearing, by clearing heat and wind-heat from the head and the Gallbladder channel. Because it sits so close to the eye, needle insertion is typically very shallow for safety. The other points listed lie in different regions around the temple or jaw and do not occupy that hollow near the outer canthus, so they don’t match this description.
