Suggest Treatment For Optic Neuropathy

I was either injected Conray or Myodil in Sydney 1978 and had instantaneos reactions - acid tears from my eyes and burning upon the surface of my skin. Superimosed was a 2mm wide yellow horizontal colour across each eye and in
1992 my right eye hemorrhaged which was diagnosed as optic neuropathy. My eyes continue to intermittently produce acid tears, but they mostly ache! and my neck and around my ridcage is increasingly getting very stiff and painful also since 1992. A government medical officer at the time following the injection referred in his notes that I have diffuse symptoms and further mentioned that my prognosis isn't good.
