Optic nerve atrophy

Patient's question:

A while ago, I was diagnosed with optic atrophy. At that time, I felt that my vision was a bit blurry, and I would constantly tear up. Sometimes my eyes would also feel painful. But recently, I found that I sometimes experience intermittent blindness, where I can basically see nothing, and it doesn't improve even after resting. When I went to the hospital for another check-up, they said that my optic nerve had already died.

Doctor's answer:

If it is necrotic, it cannot be reversed. The pathological changes of necrosis are due to ischemic degeneration of the affected nerve caused by a lack of treatment. Due to the unclear condition, please provide the medical record for guidance.
