Subject Optic Neuropathy
Description Previous research has strongly suggested a link between sleep disturbances and non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION), the most common form of acute optic neuropathy among adults. While there is a significant body of literature suggesting an association between NAION and OSA, the relationship between NAION and non-OSA sleep disturbances remains elusive. We hypothesized that NAION would be associated not only with OSA, but also with non-OSA sleep disorders.
