DIAGNOSED WITH NAION

I have been diagnosed with non arteric ISCHEMIC optic neuropathy in right eye. I wanted to know will the %age of vision loss increase with time and affect other eye?I have consulted doctor and they told there is no specific treatment for this. And my ESR level is also high - 48mm due to which they told I cannot go for the injection which they were thinking to give in eye on experimental basis. It would be really helpful if you could tell me the associated risk factors for this so that I can consult doc to avoid any further damage to the in future.
