Is Optic atrophy for right eye curable?
My son is suffering from optic atrophy due to trauma. He has fell down from the bike 2 years back.
His vision has reduced due to this and he can see up to a distance of 1 meter.
Is that curable? Can we get back his vision through stem cell therapy by any chance? Or any other means?
2yrs have passed optic atrophy has set in now prognosis is not favourable. however since he has some vision ie 1 Mt so to know the extent of compression you can get a CTSCAN orbits done .it's quite possible that some Nero surgeon may be able to release the compression.
