Parsa and Hoyt1 in their editorial state that nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) is not ischemic in nature, but is primarily owing to vitreous traction of the optic disc. They go on to state, “What is the evidence for ischemia in this entity?”

Joachim et al (p. 2482) evaluated the incidence and progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) over a 15-year period in 3654 adults who were 49 years of age or older and participating in the Blue Mountain Eye Study. The researchers found an overall incidence of 22.7% for early AMD and 6.8% for late AMD. After adjusting for competing risks, the incidence of early and late AMD was 15.1% and 4.1%, respectively; after further age standardization to the Beaver Dam Eye Study population, early and late incidence was 13.1% and 3.3%, respectively.

A 69-year-old man with vitreomacular adhesion of an epiretinal membrane without foveal traction in the right eye. The images are en-face optical coherence tomography with 3-dimensional reconstruction (top) and a vertical cross-sectional B-scan of the fovea showing a unique “vortex” formation (bottom).
