Description Nasal optic nerve hypoplasia (NOH) is a rare anomaly characterized by a wedged shaped inferior temporal visual field defect emanating from the blind spot, hypoplasia of the nasal disc and variable acuity. It can be unilateral or bilateral and is non-progressive1. No association has been recognized with intrauterine drug exposure or neurologic abnormality. In the literature, there are four articles reporting 15 patients with NOH, so it is rarer than other forms of optic nerve hypoplasia.
