Compressive Optic Neuropathy

Several minimally invasive endoscopic procedures offered for eye related diseases of the nose and sinuses. Patient's with Graves' disease can often experience proptosis or bulging of the eyes. This cosmetic defect can be improved by minimally invasive endoscopic orbital decompression through the nose and sinuses. Other patient's may suffer from loss of vision due to pressure on the optic nerve due to a variety of reasons, some of which include trauma, sinus tumor, or sinus disease. Endoscopic optic nerve decompression through a minimally invasive approach to the nose and sinus can relieve pressure on the optic nerve and often restore vision to the patient's eye. Other patient's may sometimes experience abscesses or pockets of pus around the eye which can be drained through the nose, the natural opening allowing surgeons to minimally invasive address this disease. Finally, an endoscopic DCR allows the surgeons to improve the normal tearing of the eye by opening the lacrimal sac into the nose.
