| Description |
We retrospectively analyzed 16 cases of traumatic optic neuropathy occurring among 86 patients suffering traumatic retrobulbar hemorrhages over the past 9 years. Traumatic optic neuropathy was diagnosed by continued optic nerve compromise with decreased vision after adequate orbital decompression had been achieved by lateral canthotomy and cantholysis decreasing intraocular pressure from a mean of 62.3 to a mean of 24.6. |
