The causes of retinal detachment are often related to trauma or excessive eye strain, commonly found in middle-aged or elderly individuals, often accompanied by myopia and usually affecting both eyes sequentially. In children, if retinal atrophy is not treated promptly and correctly, it may progress rapidly and cause serious consequences. Therefore, parents should pay close attention to their child’s condition and seek treatment in a timely manner.

Optic nerve atrophy is a manifestation of optic nerve fiber degeneration, characterized primarily by vision loss and pale optic disc color. The lesion is located in the retina, and when it involves retinal ganglion cells, it can lead to atrophy occurring from the retina towards the brain, known as ascending optic nerve atrophy, with visible optic disc atrophy signs appearing relatively quickly. When the lesion is located in the optic nerve, optic chiasm, and optic tract, it can cause atrophy developing from the brain towards the retina, known as descending optic nerve atrophy. Generally, optic disc atrophy signs appear about 1 to 3 months later. Early diagnosis of optic nerve atrophy can be challenging when solely relying on the appearance of the optic disc. Treatment measures include etiological treatment, nerve nutrition drugs, vasodilators and blood circulation drugs, traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture treatment, etc. It is prohibited to smoke and consume strong alcohol. Strengthening the body, doing health exercises, and practicing Qigong may also be effective.

It is recommended to reduce the intake of spicy foods and consume more eye-friendly foods.
