Patient's question:
An effective and rapid treatment method for optic atrophy. Recently, there have been a lot of training, and I often work late. My vision has never been very good, but recently I feel like it has worsened slightly. When looking at objects, they are often blurry. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was confirmed that I have optic atrophy. What kind of help is needed: What is optic atrophy, what should be done?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of optic atrophy must focus on identifying and addressing the underlying cause, as this is the most important aspect. Secondary treatment options can include a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. Once optic atrophy has developed in the eyes, it is almost impossible to achieve complete recovery, but the residual nerve fibers can be fully restored or maintained in function. Therefore, it is crucial to instill confidence in the patients and encourage them to persist with treatment. Due to the lack of strict double-blind experiments (which are sometimes not feasible), it is difficult to determine which medications or methods are truly effective. Initially, treatment based on traditional Chinese medicine may yield better results, while still adhering to the hospital's and doctors' treatment protocols. Avoid blindly selecting treatment methods.
