Abstract

Purpose: To compare ipsilateral and contralateral carotid wall thickness in patients with acute unilateral non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION).Methods: This prospective case series included 17 (10 male and 7 female) patients with unilateral NAION of less than 8 weeks' duration who underwent B-mode ultrasonography to measure intima-media thickness (IMT) in the common carotid and internal carotid arteries. IMT values of the affected side were compared with those on the contralateral side.Results: Mean patient age was 59.6±10.8 (range 45-74) years. Mean interval between onset of NAION and measurements was 27.6±13.2 (range 10-45) days. Mean IMT of both common and internal carotid arteries on the affected side (1.19±0.14 and 1.41±0.29 mm, respectively) was significantly (P<0.001) higher than the noninvolved side (0.92±0.11 and 0.83±0.2, respectively).Conclusion: NAION may be accompanied by increased carotid wall thickness. Carotid wall thickness measurement using ultrasound in patients with NAION may be useful to identify concomitant carotid artery disease.
