Title A Case-Controlled Study of Risk Factors in Nonarteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy
Creator Daniel M. Jacobson, MD; R. J. L. Vierkant, MAS; E. A Belongia, MD
Affiliation Marshfield, Wisconsin
Subject Nonarteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy; NAION; Vascular Disorders; Diabetes; Adiposity
Description Many uncontrolled studies have suggested that certain vascular risk factors predispose patients to nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION). Since systemic vascular disorders generally are common in individuals of similar age as patients with NAION, a case-control analysis is better suited to determine whether these potential risk factors are important in this condition.
