A 51-year-old white man presented with an acute bilateral anterior ischemic optic neuropathy approximately 1 month following hospitalization for a hyperosmolar nonketotic diabetic coma. One eye treated by retrobulbar corticosteroids showed marked improvement. The literature reveals that diabetic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy is often diagnosed in the absence of diabetic retinopathy.
