Optic Neuropathy |
Description |
Very poor visual acuity (VA) at presentation is unusual in NAION, and is usually suggestive of arteritic AION. In the IONDT, 34/420 (8%) had HM or worse VA (21 HM, 13 LP, and 0 NLP). In Hayreh's cohort, 34/237 (14%) had VA of CF or worse. Our goal was to report the frequency of very poor VA in NAION patients and to describe patient characteristics. |
