Ischaemic optic neuropathy

Non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy, including reports linked to GLP-1 drugs.

Key point

In acute NAION, increased early optic nerve head swelling rates were associated with visual field and visual acuity worsening by month 6.

How these numbers are counted

PubMed query, searched in titles and abstracts by publication date:

"non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy"[tiab] OR NAION[tiab] OR "ischemic optic neuropathy"[tiab] OR "ischaemic optic neuropathy"[tiab]

Trials: ClinicalTrials.gov studies first submitted in each 12-month window that match the same terms. A query can miss synonyms or catch unrelated papers, so treat counts as approximate.
