Abstract
Rarely, but often with serious consequences for the patient, the optic nerve is affected during the course of head injuries. Traumatic optic nerve compression is always an emergency situation, which is why time is of the essence for both diagnosis and treatment. Precise knowledge of this accident sequelae but also of the resulting conditions, especially in terms of traumatic optic neuropathy, is indispensable for adequate patient care. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of this clinical picture, particularly with regard to etiology, diagnosis, and treatment options, and to discuss this in the context of the current literature.
