Isolated Congenital Optic Disc Anomalies | Thomas R. Wolf, MD | An optic pit is a small defect in the optic disc that may be asymptomatic in isolation. Patients may develop an associated serous detachment of the macula. The condition is usually unilateral but may be bilateral. A fluorescein angiogram may demonstrate the serous detachment, and laser photocoagulat... |

Isolated Congenital Optic Disc Anomalies | Thomas R. Wolf, MD | Optociliary shunt vessels are venous collaterals that form in response to chronic venous obstruction, shunting the venous blood from the retinal circulation into the choroidal circulation. Although they may be congenital, they may occur in patients with chronic disc edema, following central retinal ... |

Isolated Congenital Optic Disc Anomalies | Thomas R. Wolf, MD | Patients with hypoplasia of the optic nerve may have normal or subnormal visual acuity or visual field. The condition may be unilateral or bilateral. Optic nerve hypoplasia is usually idiopathic, but maternal diabetes, or maternal use of anti-epileptic drugs or alcohol are predisposing factors. Opti... |

Retinal Coloboma Underneath a Relatively Normal Optic Nerve | Thomas R. Wolf, MD | Optic nerve colobomas appear as enlarged, white optic discs that are deeply excavated, often with some sapring of the superior rim. They result from an abnormal fusion of the proximal embryonic fissure. Optic nerve colobomas occur unilaterally or bilaterally with a similar frequency and can result i... |

Isolated Congenital Optic Disc Anomalies | Thomas R. Wolf, MD | Patients with midline closure defects may exhibit abnormalities in the optic nerve, choroid, retinal pigment epithelium or retina. Anterior closure defects may result in colobomas of the structures of the anterior segment, such as the iris. Disease/Diagnosis: Coloboma. |

 |
Peripapillary Staphyloma | Thomas R. Wolf, MD | Patients with ectasia of the outer layers of the eye may exhibit a posterior protrusion that appears on funduscopy as an area of deep excavation of the retina (posterior staphyloma). When it occurs around the optic disc, as in this case, it is termed a peripapillary staphyloma. This may occur in ass... |

Neuro-Ophthalmic Imaging-MRI | Mitchell J. Wolin, MD | Axial view of Arnold-Chiari malformation on a patient with downbeat nystagmus. Note the presence of the cerebellar tonsils posterior to the caudal medulla. In addition to downbeat nystagmus, Arnold-Chiari malformations can sometimes lead to increased intracranial pressure and papilledema. |

Neuro-Ophthalmic Imaging-MRI | Mitchell J. Wolin, MD | Sagittal view of Arnold-Chiari malformation on a patient with downbeat nystagmus. The compression of the cervicomedullary junction is clearly depicted in the sagittal view. |

Neuro-Ophthalmic Vascular Disease | Larry P. Frohman, MD | This 32-year-old woman was referred with a history of 4 days of loss of vision OD. She had a history of manic depressive illness and IV drug abuse; she had been HIV tested 4 weeks before and was negative. She said she last injected cocaine 5 days before being seen, the night before she awoke with th... |

Systemic Disorders With Optic Nerve and Retinal Findings | Larry P. Frohman, MD | At age 41, in 1984, this woman, who grew up in the Ohio River Valley, had 3 days of ocular pain OD, and her vision declined to 20/80 OD she has had no visual changes since, nor has she had any other neurologic symptoms. The ""presumed"" diagnosis is optic neuropathy in presumed ocular histoplasmosis... |

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.

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. |

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... |
