Isolated Hereditary Optic Neuritis/Neuropathy | Gregory S. Kosmorsky, MD | Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy is a mitochondrial hereditary optic neuropathy that usually affects young males but may occur at any age and in males or females. The clinical features are usually acute bilateral simultaneous or sequential visual loss with a central acuity and central visual fiel... |

Optic Neuropathies | Larry P. Frohman, MD | The patient is a 66-year-old man with a history of ethanol abuse. He presented with 3 months of right-sided headache and a few days of progressive visual loss OD to hand motions only. When seen by the orbital service, he had nearly complete ophthalmoplegia and ptosis. Sinus biopsy showed fungus, whi... |

Neuro-Ophthalmic Imaging-CT Scan | Larry P. Frohman, MD | This 39-year-old woman's initial sign was painless, progressive, symmetric ptosis OU, without diurnal variation, that manifested when she was age 17 living in the Dominican Republic. At that time, she had no diplopia or systemic signs. She had no family history of ocular or muscle disease, and no ot... |

Isolated Optic Neuritis/Neuropathy | Larry P. Frohman, MD | The patient is a 62-year-old female who presented in August 1996 with visual loss OD that she first noted as loss of her superior field in May 1996. She felt that it had been static since, and perhaps was even a little better in the week before she was seen. There was no pain, even with ocular rotat... |

Optic Neuropathies | Rosa A. Tang, MD | Optic atrophy might be a false-localizing sign of optic nerve disease, as retinal disease may secondarily produce optic atrophy. In retinitis pigmentosa, for example, patients may exhibit a waxy disc palor. Fundus imaging. Anatomy: Retina. Disease/Diagnosis: Retinitis pigmentosa; Optic atrophy. |

Optic Neuropathies | Daniel M. Jacobson MD | This 28-year-old otherwise-healthy woman was referred to for treatment of what was thought to be optic neuritis OD. Three weeks earlier she had noted a dark inferior scotoma OD that progressed to involve fixation over the next 10-12 days. She experienced photopsias OD at the onset. She had no viral ... |

Optic Neuropathies | Daniel M. Jacobson MD | A previously healthy 28-year-old woman (except for a history of optic neuritis OS 9 years previously with full recovery) was referred for management of optic neuritis OD. Three weeks earlier she had noted a dark inferior scotoma OD that progressed to involve fixation over the next 10-12 days. She ex... |

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. |

Isolated Optic Neuritis/Neuropathy | John A. Charley, MD | Several 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. |
