Patient's question:
Father suffered from optic atrophy in his thirties. Will I and future children have the possibility of inheriting it from the previous generation? Is optic atrophy hereditary over generations?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, it will never lead to hereditary problems across generations. Maintain a regular lifestyle with a balanced and comprehensive diet, and adjust your emotions. Eat less puffed food and carbonated drinks, reduce spicy foods, and limit fish, shrimp, and seafood. Avoid smoking and drinking alcohol. Drink more warm vegetable soup and warm rice porridge, and engage in active and appropriate exercise.If the child is troubled by optic atrophy, parents must take them to see a doctor immediately for treatment to prevent the use of blind medication to alleviate symptoms. Parents should carefully observe any changes in their child's symptoms and do their best to help them receive timely medical treatment.
