Treatments for Non-Anterior ischemic optic neuropathy ?
Anyone know of any possible treatments or clinical trial for
non-Anterior ischemic optic neuropathy ?My uncle had a sudden onset of this and know has lost half the vision in one of his eyes.I told him I would try to find out more info. and possible treatments
I think you mean non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy.
This is swelling and damage to the optic nerve due to lack of blood supply to the nerve. The lack of blood supply is due to underlying heart problems, high blood pressure, diabetes or other systemic vascular disease.
There is no effective treatment other than to treat the underlying disease in the hope of preventing the condition in the other eye.
