Hello
It seems from the history that your brother has list vision in one eye because of damage to optic nerve as a result of injury.
I can understand your concern but optic nerve is the only nerve in our body which cannot regenerate once damaged. Hence the vision which is lost because of damage to optic nerve cannot be reversed by treatment.
However he can go for low visual aids for improvement of vision.
Thank you
