For the treatment of optic atrophy, it is essential to address the root cause and treat it fundamentally. Secondary treatment can involve a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. Once optic atrophy has developed in the eyes, it is nearly impossible to cure completely, but the recovery or maintenance of function in residual nerve fibers is entirely possible. Therefore, patients should be encouraged to maintain confidence and adhere to treatment. Initially, traditional Chinese medicine treatment may be preferred, as it tends to be more effective. However, it is crucial to follow the treatment methods recommended by the hospital and doctors, avoiding of treatments.
