Traumatic optic neuropathy is sinister sequelae of craniofacial trauma leading to vision loss. The decision between early medical or surgical intervention is usually individualised. Visual evoked potentials may guide the treatment plan. We describe a young male presenting 5 days after a road traffic accident with no perception of light vision in the right eye. He was managed medically with high dose of intravenous steroids. At the 3-month follow-up, he reported a reversal of vision loss with return of visual acuity to 3/60, which improved to 6/36 at 5 months and remained stable at 8 months.
