I have nystagmus and vitreous opacity caused by optic atrophy. What should I do?

Patient's question:

I don't pay much attention to my eyes in my daily life, and I often work overtime. Now, my optic nerve has atrophied, leading to nystagmus, vitreous opacity, and I can even see the blood vessels inside my eyes. Moreover, I feel a lot of pain in my eyes. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Considering your situation and your usual bad habits, you can choose to first adjust your living and working schedule. For example, avoid overtime work and don't let your eyes get too fatigued. Watch less TV, use your phone and computer less. You should go to bed early and wake up early. Give your eyes enough rest time. After adjusting for a period of time, if the situation does not improve, you can choose to visit a regular hospital ophthalmology department for a thorough examination to rule out the possibility of other diseases.
