Popis: Purpose: To analyze the visual outcome in patients with traumatic optic neuropathy (TON) with respect to different treatment modalities, to study the correlation of initial visual loss with the final visual outcome, and to find out the predictor of final visual outcome in patients with indirect TON. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 36 eyes with TON was done. Data on clinical profile, including demographics, mode of trauma, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), pupillary reflex examination, and anterior and posterior segment examination, was collected. Presence and location of orbital and cranial fractures were identified from computed tomography scan. Visual outcomes following steroid therapy, optic nerve (ON) decompression, and in untreated patients were analyzed. Pre- and post-treatment BCVA were divided into three groups based on logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) as follows: group A: 3, group B: 2.9–1.3, and group C
