CLINICAL SCIENCES Differentiating Optic Disc Edema From Optic Nerve Head Drusen on Optical Coherence Tomography
Methods: Optical coherence tomographic images from 60 subjects (20 with ODE, 20 with ONHD, and 20 control subjects) were assessed qualitatively and quantitatively. Qualitative criteria for ODE included an elevated optic nerve head with smooth internal contour and subretinal hyporeflective space (SHYPS) with recumbent “lazy V” pattern. Optic nerve head drusen displayed a “lumpybumpy” internal op...

OBJECTIVE To assess optical coherence tomography in differentiating optic disc edema (ODE) due to papilledema and other optic neuropathies from optic nerve head drusen (ONHD). METHODS Optical coherence tomographic images from 60 subjects (20 with ODE, 20 with ONHD, and 20 control subjects) were assessed qualitatively and quantitatively. Qualitative criteria for ODE included an elevated optic ...

pletely. Several follow-up MRIs were performed. The most recent MRI, 1.5 years after the onset of symptoms, revealed an increase in number and extent of the white matter hyperintensities (Fig. 2). Glatiramer acetate therapy was initiated. On occasion, a one-and-a-half syndrome can be accompanied by a facial paresis if the fascicle or nucleus of the seventh cranial nerve in the lower part of the...
متن کاملOptic nerve head drusen.
Optic disc drusen are congenital and developmental anomalies of the optic nerve head seen commonly in clinical practice, often as an incidental ophthalmologic finding during routine exams. Optic disc drusen are a form of calcific degeneration in some of the axons of the optic nerve. Visual acuity is often not affected but the visual fields of these patients can be abnormal and deteriorate over ...
متن کاملIn-vivo high resolution imaging of optic nerve head drusen using spectral-domain Optical Coherence Tomography
BACKGROUND Optic nerve head drusen (ONHD) are white calcareous deposits, seen either superficially on the optic nerve head or buried within it. Diagnosis of ONHD is made by one or more ways: clinical exam, autofluorescence, ultrasound of the optic nerve, CT scan and/or visual field examination. The present study describes features of ONHD based on another diagnostic modality, the spectral-domai...
