Patient's question:
I used to suffer from eye nerve damage due to training, which caused a rapid decline in my vision. Later, someone told me that the eyes would gradually swell after nerve damage. Hello, does atrophy of the optic nerve cause the eyeball to change?Doctor's answer:
Optic atrophy can easily cause eye swelling. The first thing to do is to identify the cause of optic atrophy. This is the first priority because once optic atrophy occurs, it is very difficult to fully recover. However, it can be possible to maintain the function of residual nerve fibers as much as possible. Therefore, you must have confidence and patience in the treatment. However, the medication treatment method may not be completely effective, so you must also be mentally prepared.
