Optic nerve atrophy is a disease that causes severe decline in eye vision, but some nerve fibers still have the hope of recovery or maintaining function. Treatment methods include medications and vasodilating drug kits. It is recommended that patients maintain confidence and continue treatment. Commonly used medications in treatment include nerve-nourishing drugs such as vitamins B1, B12, ATP, and coenzyme A, as well as vasodilating drug kits and blood-activating and blood-circulating drugs such as niacin, dipyridamole, vitamin E, Ginkgo Biloba extract, and compound Danshen. For children, the harm of optic nerve atrophy is greater, so it is recommended that family members take their children to a specialized department for re-examination and treatment under the guidance of a doctor. In addition, children can also drink some fruit juice in daily life, which is beneficial for digesting vitamins and preventing gastrointestinal discomfort.
Optic nerve atrophy can be treated and controlled through traditional Chinese medicine methods. It is recommended to take oral Chinese medicine for nourishing the liver and improving vision, combined with improve blood circulation (Chinese medicine) fluids, acupuncture, and drug iontophoresis for comprehensive treatment, to enhance the activity of the optic nerve and appropriately reduce vision.
