| Description |
Hypobaric hypoxia in extreme high altitude leads to optic disc edema, cotton wool spots, and retinal vascular changes [1-3]. High altitude associated non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) has been described [4-7]. In this study, we examined the clinical manifestations of 5 cases of high altitude-associated NAION. |
