Anyone know of any possible treatments or clinical trial for
non-Anterior ischemic optic neuropathy ?My uncle had a sudden onset of this and know has lost half the vision in one of his eyes.I told him I would try to find out more info. and possible treatments

Not sure whether the cause is type 2 diabetes or damage to spinal nerves

Wife got in on the tail end of a TV program which was telling all about this new treatment but she got in too late to get the details.

I had a wonderful case of shingles this spring that covered my right forehead & scalp down to my right eye.
After giving me a prescription for anit-viral drugs, I demanded something at least to help with the intense itching & sensation of being attacked by millions of stabbing pins. My doc gave me an allergy drug - he is very conservative on pain medications. He did insist I go to an eye doc to make sure the virus hadn't entered my optice nerve. Is going to the eye doc & no pain meds standard procedure?

My mom has terrible foot and toe pain that is probably peripheral neuropathy - she's scared of surgery--do you know of any other natural treatments, vitamins, etc. that help this condition? I already looked on WebMD and it only listed prescription medicines - thank you very much!!

This is a condition related to type 2 diabetes involving nerve damage to the extremeties

Also why would someone have this problem who isn't a diabetic and have healthy glucose levels.
