What is the process of vision recovery from optic neuritis?

Patient's question:

A month ago, I suddenly experienced vision loss. In addition to eye pain, when I went to the hospital for a follow-up check-up, the doctor diagnosed it as optic neuritis. After treatment, the condition has been controlled, but my vision has not fully recovered yet. I am worried whether my vision can fully recover. Therefore, I am seeking advice from the doctor: how long does it take for vision to fully recover from optic neuritis?

Doctor's answer:

Recurring optic neuritis often involves a relatively slow process of complete vision recovery. The exact duration for full recovery depends on the specific treatment and the severity of the condition. Primarily, many neurotrophic drugs are used for conditioning and treatment. Intravenous infusion therapy can also be considered, which can significantly accelerate the complete recovery of the condition. Additionally, acupuncture therapy can be used in conjunction with these treatments.
