There is no treatment for optic nerve drusen.  Most do not cause significant problems.

Hi, My name is Larry I'm 51, I've had buried optic nerve head drusen all
my life. I can still see good and don't have a problem with it. I have been
told blood thinners and Viagra like drugs can cause problems with bleeding in the eye.
I have hemorrhagatic drusen and once in awhile I will see a colored pulsating blob of light when I close my eyes,
this has only happend two times to me that I know of, it goes away in a week or so, see a doctor
if this happens just for a checkout.   Larry
