OPTIC NERVE PSEUDO-DUPLICATION WITH NVD ELSEWHERE

Originally posted on @retina.rocks 12/18/2020

Is that another optic nerve?

This is a pseudo-duplicated optic disc from peripheral neovascularization emanating from a disc-sized mid-peripheral chorioretinal scar.

The OCT reveals the area of choriovitreal neovascularization.

Learning Points:
The neovascularization regressed following panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) supplemented with intravitreal Eylea injections.

Fluorescein angiography following PRP and anti-VEGF injections shows virtually no leakage from the neovascularization.
