Mitochondrial DNA abnormalities in NAION [PDF]
We reported that a group of 19 patients with non-arteritic ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION) had an increased number of mitochondrial (mt) DNA nucleotide changes1 and significantly increased relative mtDNA content compared to age and sex matched controls.2 We were pleased that Carelli and Sadun thought that our most recent manuscript in BJO warranted ...

Does topical brimonidine tartrate help NAION? [PDF]
There is no proved treatment for non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION). Topical brimonidine tartrate has been reported to have a neuroprotective benefit for retinal ganglion cells following experimental elevation of intraocular pressure and optic nerve injury in the rat, which is blocked with coadministration of the α-2 antagonist ...
