Approximately three weeks after the accident, the vision in her left eye became reduced to light perception. Electro physiologic studies revealed that the function of both optic nerves was diminished, the right significantly more than the left.
Chiropractic spinal manipulation was used to aid recovery of vision to normal over a course of 20 treatments. Significant improvement in vision would sometimes occur immediately following spinal manipulation.
Progressive recovery of vision was monitored by serial visual field tests and by electrophysiological studies.
This case report contributes to previous accounts of progressive recovery of optic nerve function in association with spinal manipulation therapy.
