Hello
Welcome to Health care magic
I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that your daughter is having loss of eye sight because of tuberculosis. I can understand your concern.
This indicates probable involvement of the optic nerve resulting in optic atrophy.
Please do send me more details like treatment history and reports of eye examination so that In can answer your question more accurately.
Thank you
With regards

raised intracranial pressure causes optic nerve atrophy. it can be arrested reducing intracranial pressure. so it need intermittent check. once there is complete atrophy it is irreversible this stage it is to be examined about the stage of Atro phy. if atrophy is not complete the steps to be taken to reduce iop. if atrophy is complete then allopahic or ayur vedic medicine is of no use
