How to treat optic nerve damage due to trauma

If there is damage to the optic nerve caused by trauma to the eye, early detection and treatment is recommended for this disease. In the early stage of the disease, the orbital examination should be perfected to clarify whether there is any orbital fracture, and if so, surgical treatment is needed. If the optic nerve is simply damaged, the current treatment is mainly glucocorticoid and nutritive nerve therapy. Methylprednisolone or methylcobalamin injection can be administered systemically to promote the repair of nerve tissue. This disease must be treated early, if not treated in time, optic nerve atrophy will form. Although the disease can be improved, but the vision is very difficult to restore, because the nerve cells are non-renewable cells. Therefore, once optic nerve atrophy is formed, it is very difficult to regain vision through medication or surgery.
