Description |
Non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) is the most common acute optic neuropathy in patients > 50 years old. The association between NAION and stroke is uncertain. Several small studies have shown no increase in stroke following NAION, while others have shown an increased stroke risk following NAION. Our goal was to determine if patients with NAION are at an increased long term risk of ischemic stroke and if that risk is independent of other known stroke risk factors. |
