Description |
Anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION) is one of the commonest causes of impaired vision In persons past middle age although no age is immune to it. Based on my experience of a prospective study of about 850 patients wHh AION, I am disturbed to find that over recent years the subject has come to be surrounded by a number of myths, propagated by persons with inadequate knowledge of AION. |
