Does Optic Nerve Aneurysm Causing Vision Loss Need Surgery?

Hi,

My mother is suffering from aneurysm in her optic nerve. We showed to the hospital NIMHANS in bangalore and doctor told that it needs to operated urgently. She is losing her vision since few months. My questions are:- Is this disease really requires operation? Is NIMHANS the best hospital to show this? Can anybody help me on this?

Thanks,
Arun
