What would be a good endpoint to determine whether a childs treatment is working?
In children with a cupped optic nerve head, a good endpoint to determine if the treatment is having the desired effect would be to see a reversal [decrease] of the cupping. A reversal means that the stress has been taken off the nerve and that “stunned” nerve cells have more or less returned to an anatomically correct appearance. However, there may be some functional deficits that persist. Dr.
