Traumatic optic neuropathy occurs when a head or facial injury damages the optic nerve, causing sudden vision loss that can be partial or complete. Emergency management (including possible surgery or steroids) is time-critical, but some patients are left with permanent nerve damage afterward. Optic Atrophy Treatment Center works with Pakistani patients exploring stem cell therapy for the optic nerve damage that remains once the acute injury has been treated.

Why Pakistani Patients Consider This Option
Once the acute post-traumatic period has passed, there is currently no established way to reverse the resulting optic nerve damage through conventional treatment. Patients often look abroad to explore additional options for the vision loss that remains.

How Stem Cell Therapy May Help
Stem cell therapy is studied for its potential to help support optic nerve tissue damaged by trauma. It is considered once the acute injury has stabilized and been fully assessed.
Is This Treatment Right for You?
Suitability depends on the stage and cause of the condition. Before travelling, our team reviews:
01 Genetic or metabolic test results (urine organic acids, OPA3 gene), if available
02 OCT scan and visual field test results
03 Age of onset of vision loss and any movement symptoms
04Current neurology management status, if applicable
What Your Visit Includes
- Remote pre-screening based on reports shared in advance

What Our Patients Say
Bunty Singh
Excellent customer service and straight away got some improvement as my eye points stop hurting when i press them so and still on the healing process. Very experienced doctor and lovely people. Happy with it.
Aneeket Kushwah
I came from overseas specifically for treatment. The staff not only assisted me with transport but also made the whole experience hassle-free. The medical service was of the highest standard and I was very secure in Delhi.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this suitable soon after an injury?
“No, the acute injury must first be fully treated and stabilized locally before this option is considered.”
What reports should I send before travelling?
” Imaging from the time of injury, OCT scan, visual field test, and details of any treatment already received.”
Can Pakistani patients currently travel to India for this treatment?
At present, no — India’s visa suspension for Pakistani nationals is still in effect. A remote report review lets you prepare in advance.”
