Can optic nerve atrophy restore vision?

Patient's question:

Due to the compression of the brain tumor causing atrophy of the optic nerve, the brain tumor has now been surgically removed. Can vision still be restored?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, optic atrophy is a very challenging eye disease with a high risk of blindness. If the optic atrophy is caused by tumor removal, the earlier the treatment, the better. Currently, clinical treatment for this condition includes Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture combined with oral Chinese herbal medicine, and surgery, but the success rate is not very high. I suggest that next time you leave a message, please provide a detailed description of the patient's medical history and treatment process, so that I can give you the most direct advice. You can also leave a message directly in my clinic, and I will reply to you promptly.
