While the risk factors associated with NAION are well-reported, there is a lack of uniformity on which tests should be ordered to evaluate these risk factors. Most neuro-ophthalmologists concur that routine treatment for NAION is not warranted, but not unanimously. Future studies to develop a consensus guideline for post-NAION work-up and management recommendations may assist in the detection and management of preventable risk factors.
