Quantitative Perimetry in Compressive Optic Neuropathy and Optic Neuritis

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1978
The Goldmann perimetric defects in 20 cases of compressive optic neuropathy and 54 cases of optic neuritis were analyzed. While defects involving the papillomacular bundle were the rule in both compressive and neuritis cases, sparing of the fixational area occurred in 24% of neuritis eyes but in none of the eyes with compressive neuropathy.

Endoscopic optic canal decompression for compressive optic neuropathy

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2011
Compressive optic neuropathy is a rare condition that may be caused by trauma or non-traumatic events. Endoscopic techniques have evolved to provide an easier surgical approach to decompression. The aim of this study was to determine the endoscopic anatomy of the orbital apex and to identify the optimal targets for endoscopic optic nerve decompression.

Compressive Optic Neuropathy

2011
Optic nerve compression results in progressive, and often painless, monocular vision loss. In this chapter, we review the clinical signs and common causes of compressive optic neuropathy. We discuss in more detail the imaging characteristics and management of optic nerve sheath meningioma.

Compressive Optic Neuropathy Secondary to Chronic Sinusitis

Optometry and Vision Science, 1988
ABSTRACT The paranasal sinuses surround the orbit on three sides. The thin bony walls of the sinuses are an ineffective barrier to the spread of infection to either the orbit or the intracranial cavity. In this report a case of compressive optic neuropathy secondary to chronic sinusitis is presented.

Bilateral dysthyroid compressive optic neuropathy responsive to teprotumumab

European Journal of Ophthalmology, 2021
Thyroid eye disease is an auto-immune mediated orbitopathy which can cause dysthyroid compressive optic neuropathy. Traditional management of active thyroid eye disease includes temporizing high-dose steroids, orbital radiation and surgical decompression, which each possess significant limitations and/or side effects.

The role of optical coherence tomography in the evaluation of compressive optic neuropathies

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2019
Purpose of review Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive imaging tool routinely used in ophthalmology that provides cross-sectional images of the retina. Compression of the anterior visual pathways results in progressive thinning of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and macular ganglion cell complex (GCC) and ...

Rapamycin for Treatment of Refractory Dysthyroid Compressive Optic Neuropathy

Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2007
We report a patient with dysthyroid optic neuropathy refractory to steroids and orbital decompression treated with rapamycin, a fibroblast and T cell inhibitor. Symptoms, visual acuity, color plate testing, and visual fields improved. Aside from hypercholesterolemia, no complication related to this therapy was observed.

Compressive and Infiltrative Optic Neuropathies

2008
In contrast to the meningiomas from intracranial extension or the ectopic orbital ones, primary optic nerve sheath meningiomas (ONSM) arise from the intraorbital optic nerve sheath and grow circumferentially around the optic nerve to result in an optic neuropathy by interfering with axonal transport and pial blood supply to the nerve. They constitute 1%

OCT and Compressive Optic Neuropathy

2016
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has provided new and important resources for quantification of retinal neural loss in many different optic nerve diseases including compressive optic neuropathies. As in other optic neuropathies OCT can be useful for diagnosis and follow-up of both optic nerve and chiasmal compressive diseases.

Wegener Granulomatosis Causing Compressive Optic Neuropathy in a Child

Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2009
Wegener granulomatosis is an uncommon illness in children that is known to cause myriad ophthalmic complications, but it is rarely a cause of compressive optic neuropathy. A 17-year-old Hispanic boy with Wegener granulomatosis developed unilateral loss of vision, pain, and proptosis of the left eye.
