Description Pathologic optic disc cupping is often related to glaucoma, but can also be caused by compressive optic pathway diseases. The differentiation between these conditions in some cases may be challenging. We compared the ability of Bruch's Membrane Opening - Minimum Rim Width (BMO-MRW) measurements in detecting structural abnormalities in patients with band atrophy (BA) of the optic nerve from compressive chiasmal lesions, glaucoma and controls.
