				Hi,
I have a swollen optic nerve due to excess fluid in my brain. It is affecting the vision in my left eye. So far I've tried belladonna and pulsatilla but it has not improved. Would anyone be able to recommend a remedy?
Thank  you,
Alina

				A Google search reveals you have a serious condition

which should require a full case analysis but it can be acute due to injury or chronic arising from other disease conditions.

Maybe someone can recommend treatment direction if they knew more about how this evolved.

				You can have a look at NAION in google. Immediately you can try belladona or steroid therapy. It is important that the swelling should subside. I had swelling of the nerve and now my right eye has very limited vision. I had to give up driving after the incident.
