Optic Neuropathy

A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Palmyra, PA

Wondering if anyone has experienced a non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy of the eye. Essentially loss of blood flow in the optic nerve while having Multiple Myeloma? This is a non-inflammatory type of issue but loss of vision and or blurry vision.

I haven't had any problem with my eyes, but my eye doctor is seeing me every three months.

I have never had this to happen so I can't add to this.
