Summary

Acute ischemic optic neuropathy are the second leading cause of optic neuropathy after glaucoma in the population aged over 50 years. The visual prognosis of the condition is unfavorable in the great majority of cases, with significant effects on the visual field and vision. The severity of the unilateral condition is also associated with bilateralization in 15% at 5 years. There is no effective treatment for the acute phase of the disease or to reduce the rate of bilateralization. In this context, it is essential to develop new therapeutic strategies in the acute phase of the disease to reduce the anatomical optic nerve damage.
