Description Lesions of the optic tract lead to subtle clinical features that may be under-recognized. Optic tract syndrome is characterized by a triad of a contralateral relative afferent pupillary defect (RAPD), contralateral homonymous hemianopia and contralateral bow-tie optic atrophy. This report outlines the rare and scarcely reported traumatic optic tract syndrome with corroborating MRI, retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and, for the first time in the literature, ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) findings.
