How to treat optic atrophy

Optic nerve atrophy should of course be treated with scientific and effective treatment. When it comes to treatment, you should be careful not to be too nervous or anxious. At the same time, the treatment method should not rely too much on surgery. Depending on the situation, you can also adopt Chinese medicine treatment and conditioning.

1. Avoid being anxious and anxious when seeking emergency treatment: Some patients become extremely anxious when they learn that they suffer from optic atrophy. They lose confidence in treatment and are always having wild thoughts, which increases their psychological burden. An anxious and impatient mentality is not conducive to recovery. While undergoing treatment, maintaining a cheerful and optimistic attitude will help to achieve twice the result with half the effort in recovering from the illness.

2. Don't rely too much on surgery: Many people believe that optic atrophy requires surgery. However, they do not know that surgery is mainly suitable for patients with acute glaucoma with an acute onset and rapid increase in intraocular pressure. Surgery cannot be used for all types of optic atrophy. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment is an effective option.

3. Adhere to treatment and do not give up halfway: Patients with optic atrophy generally require long-term treatment, but for some patients, their intraocular pressure returns to normal after treatment, and they think they have recovered and stop treatment. After a period of time, they feel eye discomfort again, only to find that the disease has recurred. This kind of intermittent treatment is not conducive to recovery and will prolong the treatment time. Therefore, it is recommended that patients with optic atrophy follow their doctor's advice.
