Patient's question:
My brother is 35 years old this year. Due to work reasons, he often touches welding machines and other equipment, and is frequently injured by sparks in his eyes. Last week, my brother had eye pain and had a thorough examination, which revealed optic neuritis. However, it has already improved this week. Is it possible for optic neuritis to be cured?Doctor's answer:
Neuritis of the optic nerve, in general, can be cured, so there's no need to worry too much. It's recommended to take good care of your eyes and avoid overusing them. Don't frequently watch TV or use computers, as this can have a very serious impact on your eyes. If you often come into contact with welding equipment, it's advisable to wear protective goggles to effectively prevent eye damage. I hope my explanation helps you.
