Patient's question:
A colleague said that his father has recently been feeling uncomfortable with his eyes, a bit blurry. He went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor diagnosed it as optic neuritis. He also stayed in the hospital and took medication, but after about 1 month, it hasn't improved. What should be done in this case?Doctor's answer:
Damage to visual function can be related to the function of the optic disc. If there is inflammation of the optic disc, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or corticosteroid eye drops are generally chosen to promote complete recovery, which tends to be more effective. It is best to seek medical treatment at a hospital for anti-inflammatory medication, and then complement this with eye recovery medications from the committee for even better results.
