What are the causes of retinal neuropathy atrophy?

The retina is a very fragile part of the human body. Factors such as trauma, tumor compression, papilloedema, intracranial inflammation, and other factors may lead to pathological changes in retinal ganglion cells and their axons, causing the retinal nerves to become thinner overall and presenting symptoms of retinal atrophy. If patients do not want the condition to continue to worsen and affect their vision, they need to seek treatment as soon as possible and actively follow their doctor's advice.

1. Hereditary optic neuropathy, orbital tumor compression, trauma, neurotoxins, and other causes can alter the back of the patient's eyes, leading to retinal atrophy.

2. The causes of secondary retinal atrophy include glaucoma, retinitis pigmentosa, papilloedema, and others.

3. If a patient has intracranial inflammation, it may also cause retinal atrophy.

1. If a patient has retinal atrophy, complete recovery through treatment is not possible. However, it is possible to restore or maintain the function of residual nerve fibers. Patients must identify the cause and actively seek treatment.

2. Patients with retinal atrophy may choose to use vitamins B1, B12, neurotrophic drugs such as ATP, which can enhance nutrition and improve the condition.

3. Drugs such as vitamin E can dilate blood vessels and promote blood circulation to remove blood stasis, thus also having a good effect on the treatment of retinal atrophy.
