With the eyes looking directly forwards, which point is located directly below the pupil between the eyeball and the infraorbital ridge?

• A. St 2
• B. St 1
• C. Li 20
• D. St 3

Answer: (B)

The location being described is the point on the Stomach channel that sits directly below the pupil, in the hollow between the eyeball and the infraorbital ridge. That spot is ST 1, located at the infraorbital margin. It’s the first facial point on the Stomach channel and is classically described as directly under the pupil when the eyes look forward.

Understanding this helps: ST 1 is specifically at the infraorbital margin under the eye, not a bit higher or lower, and not near the nose or cheek. The other points lie in different facial regions—one along the infraorbital area but not exactly under the pupil, another at the nasolabial groove near the nose, and another further down on the cheek—so they don’t match the described position.
