Hi, my brother's eye number was .50 till last year but now the optician said that the vision is almost nil and the eye is not responding. please help.?

Decreased vision: It is difficult to know what is going on based on your description. Your brother needs to see an ophthalmologist as soon as possible. Many issues can cause decreased vision and without treatment the vision may be permanently damaged or lost.
