Systemic Disorders With Optic Nerve and Retinal Findings | Larry P. Frohman, MD | This 1-year-old child with familial erythrophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis was readmitted with a fever and was noted to have bilateral blindness. The spinal tap showed a protein of 148, with 178 WBC with 98% ""lymphocytes."" This MRI image demonstrates the optic nerve infiltration. He was treated wit... |

Optic Disc Drusen Visual Fields | Thomas R. Wolf, MD | This is the visual field of patient with optic nerve drusen. Whereas they typically do not cause central field loss, optic disc drusen may cause nerve fiber bundle layer defects and, thus, peripheral field defects, including altitudinal defects (seen inferiorly in the left eye) or arcuate defects (s... |

Isolated Optic Neuritis/Neuropathy | Richard H. Legge, MD | Papilledema is a term reserved for optic disc edema related to increased intracranial pressure (eg. Papilledema, sixth nerve palsy, headache), a normal neuroimaging study, and an elevated opening pressure with normal cerebrospinal fluid contents. |

Ocular Manifestations of Congenital/Inherited Diseases | Larry P. Frohman, MD | This 14-year-old boy presented with sudden visual loss of the right eye that occurred 3 weeks before and due to a central retinal vein occlusion.

Ocular Manifestations of Congenital/Inherited Diseases | Daniel M. Jacobson MD | This 38-year-old man had unexplained poor vision in his left eye all his life and was told that he had some type of congenital vascular anomaly. He had no neurocutaneous problems. The photographs demonstrate a complex arteriovenous malformation with dilated loops of veins extending out from the nerv... |

 |
Neuro-Ophthalmic Imaging-CT Scan | Mitchell J. Wolin, MD | Idiopathic orbital pseudotumor is an inflammatory disorder that may effect any part of the ocular anatomy. The site of inflammation determines the nomenclature. For example, involvement of the sclera is referred to as scleritis. And involvement of one or more of the extraocular muscles is referred t... |

Orbital Tumors | Larry P. Frohman, MD | This 30-year-old man had a retrobulbar intraconal mass OS. The CT scans showed a heterogeneous lobulated enhancing mass, 2.2 x 1.9 x 1.8 cm. The case beautifully exhibits chorodial folds. The ultrasound showed internal reflectivity. The patient refused surgery. Pair with Images 97_60, 97_61, 97_62, ... |

 |
Isolated Congenital Optic Disc Anomalies | Larry P. Frohman, MD | This 63-year-old man with amblyopia OD was seen for a question of ischemic optic neuropathy with a pale, swollen disc OD. The correct diagnosis is an exophytic capillary angioma of the optic nerve head. Disease/Diagnosis: Capillary Angioma. |
| 289 |
 |
Acquired Disc Changes | Rosa A. Tang, MD | Optociliary shunt vessels are venous collaterals that form after chronic venous obstruction. The presence of optic atrophy, progressive visual loss, and optociliary shunt vessels may indicate a compressive optic nerve lesion such as meningioma. |

Isolated Optic Neuritis/Neuropathy | Anthony C. Arnold, MD | This 42-year-old male with pseudotumor cerebri and chronic papilledema demonstrated refractile bodies, which can been seen with chronic optic disc edema. This image exhibits decreased disc edema and resolution of the refractile bodies OD after therapy. Pair with 96_01, 96_02, 96_04, 96_05, and 96_06... |

 |
Neuro-Ophthalmic Imaging-CT Scan | Larry P. Frohman, MD | This patient was assaulted with a blunt object and suffered acute blindness due to traumatic optic neuropathy. Note how the lateral orbital wall has been fractured and displaced posteromedially into the region of the anterior optic canal. |

Optic Tract Syndrome Due to Carotid Artery Dolichoectasia | Larry P. Frohman, MD | This 43-year-old man was referred for evaluation of 6 months of visual loss OU. In retrospect, he had noticed increasing difficulty with his tennis game dating back over 3 years, as balls would pass him unexpectedly when hit to his backhand (left) side. The patient did not think this was progressive... |

Systemic Disorders With Optic Nerve and Retinal Findings | Larry P. Frohman, MD | This 8-year-old girl had a history of acute lymphoblastic leukemia with neurologic involvement, with remission induced with radiation and chemotherapy. Her relapse showed as an isolated optic neuropathy with this fundus appearance. The other eye was normal. The MRI and spinal tap at this point were ... |

Ocular Manifestations of Systemic Disorders | Robert F. Saul, MD | Wilson's disease (hepatolenticular degeneration) is a progressive autosomal recessive multisystem disease that may result in cirrhosis of the liver, renal dysfunction, and motor neurologic disease. A Kayser-Fleischer ring may occur as a green-brown band at the level of Descemet's membrane in the cor... |

Neuro-Ophthalmic Case With Notable Field Changes | Marilyn C. Kay, MD | This 28-year-old woman presented with a 4-week history of bilateral visual loss. She had a known history of multiple sclerosis. Her vision was 20/60 OD and 20/40 OS, with an RAPD OS and optic pallor OU. Her fields and MRI are shown. Optic tract lesions usually result in an incongruous homonymous hem... |

Ocular Disease With Retinal Findings | William Fletcher Hoyt, MD | Choroidal folds may result from choroidal tumors, compression on the eye wall from thyroid ophthalmopathy, orbital pseudotumor, orbital tumor, posterior scleritis, hypotony, scleral laceration, retinal detachment, marked hyperopia, or secondary to papilledema. Intraocular pressure measurements, refr... |
