Question

A patient inquires about improving methods for retinal optic nerve atrophy, mentioning that they have undergone craniotomy surgery and are undergoing traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture treatments but have not seen any improvement.

Answer

Optic nerve atrophy can lead to vision decline and a gray or pale optic disc, with treatment focusing on nourishing the nerves, dilating blood vessels, and promoting blood circulation. It is recommended that the patient register at a hospital for treatment. As optic nerve atrophy has a significant impact on children, parents should discover it early and take their children to a regular hospital for consultation, while also paying attention to dietary adjustments. It is suggested to have appropriate eating habits and avoid spicy and irritating foods. It is hoped that the child can receive proper treatment and recover.
