Acute, idiopathic blind spot enlargement syndrome.
نویسنده
چکیده
An otherwise healthy 12-year-old boy was evaluated for an enlarged blind spot in his left eye. Neither optic nerve edema/neuritis nor a retrobulbar mass explained this finding. Consultation with a neuro-ophthalmologist over a period of 14 months resulted in a diagnosis of acute, idiopathic blind spot enlargement syndrome, a rare and poorly understood ocular condition. To the author's knowledge, this is the youngest case ever reported.
