Those details decide whether a claim qualifies, and a phone call cannot confirm them.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my prescription for diabetes vs. weight loss relevant?
No. The same active ingredient causes the same injury regardless of FDA-approved indication. All GLP-1 users who developed NAION may qualify.
My vision partially returned. Do I still have a claim?
Yes. Any documented NAION event qualifies regardless of final vision outcome.
