Description |
The mechanism of non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) is not well-known and there have been no proven effective treatments so far. The use of steroids in NAION, one of the investigated methods to improve the visual outcomes, still remains controversial. We evaluated whether the intravenous (IV) methylprednisolone following oral corticosteroids has any beneficial or adverse effect on visual outcomes in NAION. |
