Which point is located in the depression on the supraorbital margin at the lateral end of the eyebrow?

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

Answer: (A)

Identifying eyebrow landmarks to locate acupuncture points. The description “depression on the supraorbital margin at the lateral end of the eyebrow” corresponds to San Jiao 23, a point exactly at the hollow at the outer end of the eyebrow along the eyebrow ridge. This point sits on the San Jiao channel as it crosses the eye region and is commonly used for eye-related issues and facial pain. The other points are located around the ear/temple area, not at the lateral eyebrow depression, so they don’t match this landmark.
