What Are the Treatment Options for Optic Nerve Injury?
The optic nerve is crucial for the eyes to send signals to the brain for clear vision. Blurred sight, color vision loss, and even blindness can occur. Causes include head trauma, inflammation, glaucoma, and other diseases. Sadly, damaged optic nerves can't fully heal. But treating root causes and eye care may stop further harm. Seeing an eye doctor regularly helps manage vision changes, and keeps eyes healthy.

Why Do I Get Severe Headaches with Eye Symptoms?
Your migraine headache disorder could be a possible cause. You may experience severe pain on one side of your head and even have visual disturbances, like a "rippling water" effect, before the headache starts. Sensitivity to light and sound, along with numbness or weakness, can also happen during a migraine attack. The key is to identify and avoid potential triggers such as stress, lack of sleep, and certain foods. Keeping a headache journal can help you spot patterns. You can also try relaxation techniques, maintain regular sleep routines, and take prescribed medications to prevent or treat migraines. It's important to seek medical advice from a neurologist for a personalized treatment plan.

Addressing Dysphagia After 8-Month Post-Stroke
Some people have trouble swallowing after a stroke. This condition is called dysphagia, and it's common after a stroke. If someone coughs while eating, it could mean that food is going into their airways instead of their stomach. A feeding tube can help for a while. Speech therapy often helps people regain their ability to swallow over time. Keep in touch with your doctors to get the best care plan.
