Doctor's answer:

Optic Nerve Atrophy. Since being diagnosed by Western medicine as an "incurable terminal eye disease," patients who contract the condition often face long-term treatment without recovery and eventually give up hope, plunging into a world of darkness. In reality, this is not the case. The great Chinese nation and its rich medical treasures have provided us with a powerful tool to conquer this global challenge. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) holds that the human body is an organic whole, inextricably linked to the universe. Moreover, everything in nature has its unique characteristics, and therefore, treating diseases must also proceed from a holistic perspective, examining the root causes and applying targeted treatments. Differentiating syndromes and prescribing medications according to each patient's specific etiology and symptom patterns, with personalized formulas, is the only way to achieve the goal of curing. Optic Nerve Atrophy is not incurable—it is simply that its pathological patterns and characteristics have not been fully understood. Countless precedents have proven that Western medicine has reached its limits in studying Optic Nerve Atrophy, while Traditional Chinese Medicine has shone brightly in this field. - China Glaucoma Specialty Hospital.
