How does optic disc vasculitis occur?

How does one get optic disc vasculitis?

Optic disc vasculitis can easily lead to serious damage to the optic disc blood vessels and arteries, causing varying degrees of retinal hemorrhage, edema, exudation, capillary dilation, blurred vision, distorted vision, dark shadows in front of the eyes, etc. It is recommended that you seek medical attention immediately after these discomfort symptoms occur, and do a good job of causal and symptomatic treatment to recover your health.

First, infection

The occurrence of optic disc vasculitis may be related to infection with pathogens, such as Staphylococcus aureus infection, Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, Rickettsia infection, Streptococcus pneumoniae infection, etc., which may invade and damage retinal vascular arterial tissue and cause disease.

Second, eye injury

If the patient has an eye injury and it is not treated in time, the internal blood vessels and arteries may be damaged due to the trauma, causing disease and varying degrees of eye pain, retinal hemorrhage, etc.

3. Impaired immune system

Some patients experience symptoms of optic disc vasculitis, which may be related to impaired immune system function, because impaired immune system function can easily lead to decreased immunity and increase the risk of bacterial infection. Once a certain pathogen invades and damages the retinal vascular tissue, it may cause lesions and induce disease.

Fourth, inflammatory stimulation

The occurrence of optic disc vasculitis may also be related to eye inflammation stimulation, because long-term eye inflammation can easily lead to retinal lesions and cause diseases.

Fifth, long-term eye makeup or poor eye hygiene

Long-term use of eye makeup or poor eye hygiene can also increase the risk of optic disc vasculitis, mainly because long-term use of eye makeup and poor eye hygiene can easily lead to secondary infection, causing bacteria to invade and damage retinal vascular tissue, inducing the disease.

There are many causes of optic disc vasculitis, and the above are the most common inducing factors. No matter which of them is involved, it is likely to cause the disease, resulting in symptoms such as eye pain, eye swelling, retinal congestion, and edema. It is recommended that after these symptoms occur, immediate medication or surgery should be taken to control the disease, reduce harm, and protect your own health.
