| Abstract |
We read with great interest the 14th Hoyt Lecture by Arnold (1) dealing with ischemic optic neuropathy. In particular, we were drawn to the discussion of systemic risk factors and the potential role that medications play in pathogenesis of nonarteritic ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION). We present a case of NAION related to a medication that should be included in the list of risk factors. |
