Patient's question:
Due to poor eyesight, I have now been diagnosed with optic atrophy. Currently, my vision is 0.2, and it's worse in my left eye. How can I be treated to maintain my current vision? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
If vision problems occur, there are generally two reasons: one is caused by eye diseases, and the other is more common, which is inflammation in the brain. Therefore, it should not be taken lightly. It is recommended to first visit an ophthalmologist to rule out many basic inflammations. If it is an eye inflammation, symptomatic treatment can be administered. If it is inflammation in the brain, it is suggested to have an MRI to identify the location and cause of the inflammation. The child is threatened by optic nerve atrophy, so the family must take the child to the hospital immediately for treatment to prevent the use of small advertisements for drugs. Proper medication is required, and parents should carefully observe changes in the child's symptoms and do their best to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
