Nutritional optic atrophy caused by malnutrition, what foods are good to eat?

Patient's question:

Blurred vision, unable to see clearly, feels like there's something in the eyes.

Doctor's answer:

Disease Analysis: Meat products are primarily used for the auxiliary treatment of mixed retinal diseases or in the recovery phase of febrile retinal diseases. Beef and mutton have the effects of tonifying qi, nourishing blood, and improving eyesight. Liver, chicken, and duck meat tonify the kidneys and enrich essence and blood. Pork, eggs, and duck eggs nourish the kidneys and liver and replenish yin fluids. Fish, on the other hand, have the effects of tonifying the kidneys, replenishing qi, nourishing yin, and improving eyesight. However, these foods should be consumed in small amounts and multiple meals, avoiding overeating.
Advice: Plant-based foods are often used for the auxiliary treatment of febrile retinal diseases. For example, ingredients such as winter melon, loofah, bitter gourd, amaranth, celery, mung beans, red beans, and kelp have the effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, promoting diuresis and edema reduction, and invigorating blood circulation. On the other hand, foods like millet, sorghum, corn, rice, soybeans, black sesame seeds, and wood ear mushrooms can tonify qi, nourish blood, and improve eyesight. It is recommended to visit an ophthalmology department for a medical examination and diagnosis before treatment.
