Patient's question:
Male, 22. My eyes often feel very painful, and very dry and itchy, as if small insects have flown into them. My colleague said that these symptoms are very likely to be neuroatrophy. I am very worried. Please ask: Can optic nerve atrophy be treated?Doctor's answer:
Inflammation, trauma, cerebral edema, glaucoma, and other conditions can lead to optic nerve atrophy. Once the nerve atrophy occurs, it is generally difficult to regenerate, and the additional visual function is also difficult to alleviate and recover. Currently, there is no effective clinical method to treat optic nerve atrophy. Oral vitamin drugs can help maintain it, but surgery cannot treat optic nerve atrophy. Do not have any psychological pressure, maintain a cheerful mood, and pay attention to getting more rest during this period. At the same time, maintain a light diet, avoiding greasy and spicy foods, which is beneficial for both you and the fetus in your womb.
