OBJECTIVE To demonstrate the development of subfoveal fluid associated with optic disc swelling from nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy. METHODS Optical coherence tomographic studies obtained during a 3-year period (October 1, 2003, to December 30, 2006) from 76 patients who developed ischemic optic neuropathy from 2 institutions were evaluated. The presence or absence, and the d...
Five patients with isolated optic neuropathy and sarcoidosis are discussed. The spectrum of clinical disease was variable but two groups could be identified: patients with chronic progressive visual loss which was associated with thickening of the optic nerve and was refractory to steroid treatment, and patients with acute or subacute optic neuropathy in which the visual loss responded rapidly ...
In this review, we comprehensively describe ophthalmic diseases with mitochondrial DNA mutation such as Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON), progressive external ophthalmoplegia (PEO) and Kearns-Sayre Syndrome (KSS). Ocular involvement is a prominent clinical feature of various mitochondrial diseases as well. The known mitochondrial disorders such as Mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lact...
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To summarize our experience in diagnosis of carotid cavernous segment pseudoaneurysm in patients with traumatic optic neuropathy, and to make recommendations for treatment. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective study. METHODS Clinical data of 133 cases with traumatic optic neuropathy (TON) were reviewed. The diagnosis and treatment of four cases with carotid cavernous segment pse...
PURPOSE To present a unilateral central visual field defect in a patient with psoriatic arthritis treated with Methotrexate and folic acid supplement, probably induced by toxic posterior optic neuropathy. The scotoma incompletely resolved after cessation of Methotrexate (MTX) therapy. METHODS Serial fundoscopic, perimetric and electrophysiological examination as well as comprehensive neurolog...
BACKGROUND To evaluate a case of atypical optic neuropathy that presented with blurred vision following the use of an antiarrythmic agent. CASE Record of the patient was reviewed to determine the etiology of his optic neuropathy. OBSERVATIONS Ophthalmological examination revealed unilateral optic disc edema with relatively well-preserved visual acuity. In routine tests, results of complete ...
Introduction: Optic neuropathies are a broad group of diseases in which the dominant disturbance is damage to optic nerve, often irreversible. Underlying causes neuropathy both genetic and environmental. Despite limited treatment options, much research currently being done on substances that could improve nerve function alleviate clinical consequences damage.
 Purpose: This article describ...
Therapeutic Effects of High Dose Intravenous Prednisolone on Methanol Induced Toxic Optic Neuropathy
Background: The effects of high dose steroids for the treatment of methanol optic neuropathy was evaluated in this study. Methods: In an interventional case series, 9 patients with a history of sudden visual loss after an ingestion of homemade alcoholic beverages were included in the study. The patients received 250 mg intravenous methyl prednisolone every 6 hours for 4 days continued with oral...
PURPOSE To report a case of bilateral anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy due to buried optic disc drusen. METHODS Case report. RESULTS A 64-year-old man presented with swollen optic discs and features suggestive of anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (AION) in the left and right eye on two separate occasions ten months apart. Detailed ocular examination at presentation and systemic investi...
PURPOSE Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are suspected to play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON), caused by mutated complex I subunit genes. It seems surprising that optic neuropathy has not been described in animals with a knockout of genes encoding critical anti-ROS defenses. If ROS have a role in the optic nerve injury of LHON, then increasing mitoch...
