on the prognosis. This study analyses the association between pre interventional visual evoked potential and the post interventional visual outcome.

Methods: In this study 56 patients with mild and moderate head injury with associated optic nerve injury were included. Patients with pre existing

optic nerve disease where excluded. Clinical assessment of the patient’s vision and visual evoked potential were recorded. Patients were treated by

medical and surgical methods accordingly. Statistical analysis was done using IBMSPSS software.

Results: Patients with abnormal waves in VEP showed significant improvement in vision. Patients who had absent waves in VEP showed poor

recovery in vision.

Conclusion: Visual evoked potential is an excellent tool to assess the visual outcome in patients with optic nerve injury in the setting of traumatic

brain injury
