Q. What is NAION?
A. A loss of eyesight in one eye after taking Viagra, Cialis or

is called Non-Arteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy (NAION)
and it occurs when blood flow is blocked to the optic nerve.
12. Is NAION related to taking Viagra?
So far there is no proof that Viagra, Cialis or Levitra cause NAION,
since there had been cases where the patients did not use any of
them just prior to the eyesight lost.
A higher chance of NAION is with people who:
• have heart disease
• are over 50 years old
• have diabetes
• have high blood pressure
• have high cholesterol
• smoke
• have certain eye problems
Stop using Viagra, Cialis, or Levitra if you have a loss in your
