Case Report
|
|
Results:
|
In this report, we describe and review the related literature of development of Non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) associated Tadalafil in a healthy non-smoking 48-year-old male with history of ED presented with acute onset of an inferior visual field defect on right eye. Automated perimetry showed inferior altitudinal loss in the affected eye. The administration of Tadalafil was discontinued as a potential causative agent for this condition. During follow-up, neither improvement signs nor symptoms revealed.
