If you do have optic nerve damage, you should not self treat this ever. You do need to be under the care of an eye doctor or a retinal specialist who will determine the best treatment for you.
First get checked and then treatment and tests
If from glaucoma you can stabilize the condition by lowering the intraocular pressure with eye drops. Most other conditions don’t respond to topical medication.
