Question
A friend has developed optic nerve atrophy. Is it easy to treat?
Answer
Due to the lack of rigorous double-blind trials for various medications (and sometimes the prohibition of such trials), it is difficult to specify which medications and methods are definitely effective. Commonly used medications include nerve-nourishing drugs such as Vitamin B1, B12, ATP, and Coenzyme A, as well as vasodilators and blood circulation-promoting drugs like niacin, dipyridamole, vitamin E, ginkgo biloba extract, and compound Danshen.
