[[Optic nerve decompression]] has been advocated for [[indirect optic nerve injury]]; however, the results are not clearly better than expectant [[management]] with the exception that documented delayed [[visual loss]] appears to be a strong indication for surgery.

[[Transethmoidal]] is the accepted [[route]] and is usually done within 1–3 weeks from the [[trauma]]. use of “megadose [[steroid]]s” may be appropriate as an adjunct to diagnosis and treatment
