Subject Nonarteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy; Retinal Nerve Fiber layer; Optical Coherence Tomography
Description Nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) is the result of acute perfusion insufficiency around the optic nerve head. Typically, the optic disc in NAION shows pallor of the rim and reduced visibility of the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL). The purpose of this study is to measure the peripapillary RNFL thickness using stratus OCT.
