Title Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy and PDE5 Inhibitors: Two New Cases with Re-Challenge and a Case with Large Cup
Creator Falardeau, Julie; Egan, Robert
Subject Anterior ischemic optic neuropathy; erectile dysfunction drugs; vision loss
Description The occurrence of anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION) shortly after the ingestion of erectile dysfunction drugs has raised the question of whether there is a cause-effect relationship between the use of these agents and the development of AION. We present the clinical features of three patients who developed acute vision loss from AION after the ingestion of phosphodiesterase-type-5 (PDE5) inhibitor.
