Can optic nerve atrophy be relieved with treatment?

Patient's question:

Please check your vision carefully and find that your vision has declined. The hospital conducted a thorough examination and said it was optic nerve atrophy. Can it be cured? Is there a way to treat it? Please ask the doctor for an explanation.

Doctor's answer:

Hello. The optic nerve has already swelled and it should be incurable. After medication treatment, it can only maintain the current state. The condition is no longer expanding aggressively. Many blood-activating and blood-stasis-dispersing drugs can be taken orally, along with neurotrophic drugs. The atrophy of the optic nerve is relatively harmful to children. It is recommended that parents take their child to a specialized clinic for follow-up treatment and receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
