Rohan Williams, a 35-year-old construction site manager, developed sudden, severe pain behind his right eye with rapid vision loss after a sinus infection that spread. Diagnosed with invasive fungal sinusitis, the infection and inflammation were compressing his optic nerve, risking irreversible damage within days. His ENT surgeon, Dr. Patel, urgently recommended Endoscopic Optic Nerve Decompression to drain the infection and decompress the nerve, combined with antifungal therapy. Rohan, who relied on his vision for safety at work, was shocked and anxious about the speed of his decline. The procedure successfully cleared the infected sinus tissue and relieved pressure on the nerve. Post-op recovery involved a two-week course of IV antifungals and nasal rinses. His vision began improving within days and was nearly fully restored after three months. Emotionally, he journeyed from panic and vulnerability during the acute crisis to immense gratitude and a renewed focus on his health, feeling he had narrowly escaped a life-altering disability.
