HexaHealth TeamExpertHello,
An eye stroke, often referred to as anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION), occurs due to reduced blood flow to the optic nerve, which can result in vision loss. The treatment approach will depend on the severity of the damage, underlying causes, and how quickly it is addressed.
Consider:
- A prompt consultation with an ophthalmologist or a neuro-ophthalmologist is important. They will assess the extent of damage and identify potential causes, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or vascular issues.
- Anti-inflammatory medicines may help reduce inflammation and swelling in the optic nerve.
- Controlling blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, or other vascular risk factors is essential.
- If vision loss is permanent, therapies and assistive devices may improve quality of life. Low-vision aids like Magnifiers, specialized glasses, or digital aids can help her adapt.
- Further tests may be recommended to check for any structural or neurological issues.
Pushpanjali Eye Care is a reputed eye hospital. It’s worth visiting if they specialize in neuro-ophthalmology or have expertise in treating optic nerve conditions. For the consultation, carry all previous medical records, test results, and prescriptions.
