Patient's question:
Because of my work, I need to stare at the computer all the time, so recently I've been feeling uncomfortable with my eyes, they itch and feel dry, and my vision isn't as good as it used to be. Looking at distant objects always feels uncomfortable. I went to the clinic, and the doctor said it's optic neuritis. I'd like to ask what are the precautions for optic neuritis?Doctor's answer:
Patients with optic neuritis should strictly follow the doctor's instructions for medication. During the acute phase, corticosteroid drugs are primarily administered to control inflammation. The patient may experience recurrence of drug reactions, including obesity, increased appetite, and other symptoms. Do not be overly concerned about adverse drug reactions. As the condition of optic neuritis is controlled, the medication dosage will gradually increase, and adverse reactions will also gradually disappear.
