| Description |
Radiation-induced optic neuropathy (RION) is a rare complication of radiation therapy characterized by acute, painless vision loss many months after treatment. Various factors which appear to increase the risk of RION within determined safe-dosage thresholds have been described; however, these findings have been inconsistent and primarily based on descriptive case series. |
