I have nerve damage in both my eyes. Can CCSVI reverse it?

Welcome to the forum. Different people get different results from CCSVI treatment, so that's hard to answer. It might stop it from getting worse, would that be enough? But I had vision improvements after my procedure.

If you have verifiable DAMAGE I can't imagine anything reversing it. However, if you have ON, there are many cases where people report lots of improvement in vision. Actual, verifiable damage is a different story though.

Echo everyone else r.e. verified permanent nerve damage.

ON is a whole nother ball of wax. Haven't had any flareups of that particular monster since treated, a very welcome 20 straight months of relief.
