Traumatic optic neuropathy is a rare condition due to direct or indirect injury associated with head trauma. The optimal management modality is still controversial, though spontaneous visual recovery has been reported. We hereby present two patients, 18 and 52 years old, respectively, with traumatic optic neuropathy. They had different clinical presentations and had different outcomes after treatment with high-dose steroids. According to the results of these two patients, the initial clinical presentation of traumatic optic neuropathy may be important in predicting its outcome.
