Intravenous plus intravitreal erythropoietin for management of methanol toxicity optic neuropathy: A case report and brief review

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Methanol can inhibit cellular aerobic respiration pathway and causes cell hypoxia specially in optic neurons. Despite using many drugs, methanol-induced optic neuropathy (MION) still has a poor prognosis. Here we present a case of MION which is managed by a combination of intravenous and intravitreal erythropoietin in addition to corticosteroids.
