Patient's question:
Six months ago, I was diagnosed with optic neuritis. Due to urgent matters at the time, I didn't receive treatment. Now that I have some free time, I'd like to ask what should be done about optic neuritis?Doctor's answer:
Hello. Optic neuritis or papillitis refers to the inflammation of any part of the optic nerve. Clinically, depending on the location of onset, optic neuritis is divided into two types: intraorbital and retrobulbar. The former refers to papillitis, while the latter is retrobulbar optic neuritis.Currently, the therapeutic efficacy of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in treating eye diseases has gained increasing recognition and praise from patients. For some eye diseases considered incurable by Western medicine, TCM has already made breakthroughs. Therefore, it is recommended that you first try TCM treatment.
I hope my answer can help you. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
