Question

How to Treat Optic Nerve Atrophy?

Answer

When vision problems arise, they are typically caused by either eye diseases or more commonly, inflammation within the brain. It cannot be overlooked. It is recommended to first visit an ophthalmologist to rule out many basic inflammations. If it’s an eye inflammation, treatment can be targeted accordingly. If it’s brain inflammation, an MRI is suggested to locate the inflammation and determine the cause. Children threatened by optic nerve atrophy should be taken to a doctor immediately for treatment, avoiding the blind use of advertised drugs. Proper medication is necessary, and parents should closely monitor their child’s symptoms to help them receive timely medical treatment.
