Prognostic value of retinal nerve fiber layer thickness for postoperative peripheral visual field recovery in optic chiasm compression.

Unlabelled: OBJECT.: The authors' objective was to evaluate the predictive value of preoperative axonal loss for peripheral visual field recovery after surgery for optic chiasm compression.

Methods: Consecutive patients with optic chiasm compression in the period from October 2010 through August 2012 were retrospectively studied.

Intravitreal triamcinolone injections in non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy.

Background: In non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NA-AION), no treatments have demonstrated to be effective in recovering visual loss in randomized clinical trials. Oral steroids have been evaluated, and small series of intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) injection in NA-AION have been reported. The purpose of our study was to report the visual outcome and morphological changes in response to a single IVTA injection as a treatment for patients with NA-AION.
