A retrospective analysis of clinical profiles of 20 patients with anterior and posterior ischemic optic neuropathy and diabetic papillopathy was used to evaluate optic neuropathy in diabetes. We found that vascular optic neuropathy in diabetic patients resulted from microangiopathy, macroangiopathy, and certain structural factors in the optic nerve head.
