Patient's question:
Mom is 62 years old this year, and her eyes have aged. After taking her to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said that the right optic disc atrophy of her mother has enlarged, and the physiological blind spot in the center of her right eye has also expanded by 30 degrees. I don't know what to do or what will happen if it continues. I hope her eyes can get better quickly.Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your mother's condition, it has already become very serious. It is recommended that you take your mother to a regular top-tier hospital for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible. Timely treatment is necessary to prevent it from becoming so severe that it could lead to blindness. The depression needs to be followed up for observation to see if it further enlarges. Some people are naturally larger, and this is a physiological condition. It is advised to have regular follow-up examinations for observation. If necessary, eye pressure and visual field tests should be conducted. We hope your mother recovers healthily soon.
