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... |

Neuro-Ophthalmic Manifestations of Brain Tumors | Jacqueline A. Leavitt, MD | Chordomas of the clivus may result in diplopia due to a sixth nerve palsy. The sixth nerve runs up the clivus and may be the presenting manifestation of the lesion. Imaging: MRI, T-1 axial with contrast. Pair with Images 97_33, 97_34, and 97_36. Anatomy: Clivus, Sixth nerve. Pathology: Sixth nerve p... |

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. |

Chiasmal Syndromes | Larry P. Frohman, MD | This 36-year-old woman presented in 1988 with 3 weeks of vertical binocular diplopia. She was a known amblyope OD. Her examination was notable for a right hyperdeviation of 1 PD present in right gaze and a subtle left noncongruous homonymous field defect. She was lost to follow-up, but 5 years later... |

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. His ocular history was quite complicated. He had had a resection of a lymphangioma of the left upper lid at age 7 months and underwent left orbitotomy for... |

Ocular Manifestations of Congenital/Inherited Diseases | Mark J. Kupersmith, MD | This 9-year-old girl, who had complained of recurrent spontaneous bleeding from the palate and slight swelling and increased warmth over the left cheek, was found to have Wyburn-Mason syndrome. Image 1993_16 shows a small area of arteriovenous shunt on the left optic disc in this patient, who has no... |

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. |

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. |
