I am having an operation under general anaesthetic in the next few weeks. No problems. No one has said, I can¡¯t have the op.?
Dear Members
I am new to this group having been diagnosed with NAION peripheral vision loss in my left eye 6 months ago.
I would wecome hearing good news stories from those that have had knee replacement surgery which Iam scheduled to have 30th January. My anaesthetist (after receiving news from my ophthalmologist) of my condition is not willing to assist in the procedure even though under spinal epidural the risk of further vision loss was too high.
Iam apprehensive about NAION occuring in the unaffected eye. I am a healthy 65 yo woman. No diabetes or BP.?
