Fundus fluorescein angiography revealed late leakage of both optic discs, consistent with bilateral disease. One week later, the patient developed clinical signs and symptoms consistent with NAION in the fellow eye. Fluorescein angiography may play an important role in identifying subclinical NAION in patients taking interferon-α.}, issn = {1536-5166}, doi = {10.1097/WNO.0000000000000238}, author = {Cestari, Dean M and Lessell, Simmons and Mantopoulos, Dimosthenis} }
