Abstract:
Traumatic optic neuropathy(TON) is a direct or indirect optic nerve injury after head trauma leading to vision loss and blindness. As endoscopic techniques spreading, the surgical treatment of TON is mainly accomplished by endoscopic endonasal optic canal decompression. As lack of recognition, some patients elapse the optimistic surgical time. Even after aggressive treatment, however, a full recovery of visual acuity is diminished in TON, which carries substantial burden to both the patients′ family and society. The article reviews the advances in study in the timing of surgery, prognostic factors, and complications in endoscopic surgery for TON to improve the understanding of the disease.
