Drug Links to Nonarteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy

JAMA Network

About The Study: In this large cohort study, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) use was associated with a modestly increased risk of nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy compared with sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) use. While the absolute risk remains low, the specificity of this finding may warrant heightened vigilance.
