| Description |
Tilted optic nerves are known to cause visual field defects, most commonly a superotemporal defect, however bitemporal hemianopia in the absence of a compressive chiasmal lesion is uncommon (1-3). We report a case of tilted optic nerves as the cause of bitemporal hemianopia in a patient with neuro-ophthalmologic symptoms of blurred vision and headache. |
