  • Summary

  • Dr. Peter Quiros joins host Dr. Amanda Redfern to discuss the recent JAMA Ophthalmology article "The Risk of Nonarteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy in Patients Prescribed Semaglutide," the first study to report a possible association between semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic, Novo Nordisk) and nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic Neuropathy (NAION). Dr. Quiros provides an overview of what the study showed and what remains unknown, and how ophthalmologists should discuss these recent findings with their patients.
