Episode 45: Abnormal Vision is Never Normal


Listen Later

In this episode our guest is Judith Horn, a physical therapist. She came by to chat with us, not about physical therapy but about vision loss! Judith shares her experience with losing part of her vision to a rare condition called Non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION). We get to learn about her diagnosis, how she would have preferred to hear the news that her vision may not improve, what she knows now that she wishes she knew before, (hint: abnormal vision is never normal) and so much more. Tune in for a great conversation!
