Patient's question:
I have had optic atrophy for over twenty years and don't know when it started. Is it necessary to go to the neurosurgery department to find the root cause? I have glaucoma in my right eye. How can I be young?Doctor's answer:
Hello, there is currently no effective drug treatment for optic atrophy. In addition to Western medicine treatment, you can consider traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, and moxibustion therapy. First, go to the ophthalmology department of the hospital for an examination to confirm the diagnosis, and then choose the next treatment plan based on the condition to address the root cause and symptoms. Daily treatment is mainly symptomatic treatment. The patient can take some oral medications and supplement with vitamins, while avoiding excessive tension and paying attention to rest.
