1 Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy)NANOSHereditary Optic Neuropathy - A hereditary optic neuropathy is caused by a genetic variant (or mutation) that causes dysfunction of the neurons (nerve cells) which form the optic nerve. The optic nerve sends information from the back of the eye to the vision center in the brain.The two most common t...Hereditary Optic Neuropathy; Patient Brochure
2 Leber's Optic Neuropathy (PowerPoint)AAO/NANOS - American Academy of Ophthalmology / North American Neuro-Ophthalmology SocietySeveral Primary Mutations result in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy, including mitochondrial deletions at positions 11778, 3460, and 14484. Although the 11778 is the most common mutation, the 11484 has the best prognosis for spontaneous recovery. This case exhibits the 3460 mutation.Leber's Optic Neuropathy
3 Neuro-Ophthalmic Manifestations of Mitochondrial DiseaseAbhimanyu S. Ahuja, BS; Sidney M. Gospe III, MD, PhDClassically, mitochondrial diseases exhibit a maternal inheritance pattern because pathogenic mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) are transmitted exclusively via the maternal lineage due to rapid degradation of sperm-derived mitochondria early in embryogenesis. However, mutations in mtDNA may occ...Mitochondrial Disease; Pathophysiology
