Patient's question:
Test results: Macular hemorrhageDoctor's answer:
Macular hemorrhage is a challenging condition, and research on it is ongoing worldwide. For patients, early detection and early treatment are crucial. Multiple treatments may be required. In cases of macular hemorrhage associated with high myopia or traumatic subretinal hemorrhage, hemostasis and necessary supportive therapies can reduce bleeding, promote absorption of the blood, and create conditions for further treatment. If the bleeding is located in the macula, involves the macula, or is substantial, with blood entering the vitreous humor, vision will be severely impaired, and the prognosis will be poor. Treatment methods include transpupillary thermotherapy. Another new method is photodynamic therapy, which involves injecting a photosensitive drug into the patient's bloodstream and then using laser light to irradiate the area, activating the drug on the new blood vessels to produce a chemical reaction that destroys them. Currently, since your macula has already hemorrhaged, you should visit an outpatient clinic at the hospital. You can take appropriate oral medications such as vitamin E, but the effect may not be significant. Additionally, commonly used traditional Chinese medicine treatments include collagen, peanut skin, and Cordyceps militaris, as well as hemostatic drugs, wind-dispelling and heat-clearing medications, and blood-cooling and hemostatic drugs, which may also have certain supportive effects. It is important to pay attention to health preservation in daily life. It is recommended to avoid eye injuries and excessive eye strain, and eye care exercises can be performed as needed.
