Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: (1) History of a sudden onset of painless vision loss (2) VF defect confined to only one hemifield consistent with NAION (3) Optic disc edema at onset that was confirmed by at least one neuro-ophthalmology expert (4) no evidence of other ocular diseases such as glaucoma, arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy, optic neuritis, or coexisting retinal pathologies that may cause the visual symptoms or affected retinal and choroidal vascular. (5) resolution of the initial optic disc and retinal edema at least 3 month after acute optic disc swelling.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: (1) Patients age younger than 20 years or older than 80 years (2) previous intraocular surgery (3) Patients with poor image quality including images with poor clarity, motion artifact, and scans with signal strength index of <40 were excluded.
