Optic disc drusen are acellular calcific deposits occurring in small, crowded optic discs with abnormal vasculature. Evidence suggests axoplasmic transport alteration and axonal degeneration are involved in disc drusen formation. In affected patients, the number and size of disc drusen are highly variable, and the drusen may be visible near the disc ...

Survey of Ophthalmology, 1977
Although optic disc drusen have been of interest to ophthalmologists for more than 100 years, their etiology and many aspects of their relationship to other clinical conditions remain obscure. They have been clinically observed in 0.3% of the population, although autopsy studies suggest an incidence of 2%.

Optic Disc Drusen in Tilted Disc
Purpose To investigate if a congenital anomaly of the head of the optic nerve like such as tilted disc can be a risk factor for the development of optic disc drusen. Methods The study was performed retrospectively on the files of 47 ...

Optic disc drusen (ODD) are an initially symptom-free, usually bilateral, progressive type of optic neuropathy with genetic disposition. We observed visual field loss (VFL) in 64% (49 of 77) of our patients. Vascular complications such as AION are common.

Optic disc drusen: Complications and management
Optometry - Journal of the American Optometric Association, 2007Disc drusen have been found clinically in 0.3% of the population with up to 91% presenting bilaterally. Disc drusen gradually change in their ophthalmoscopic appearance throughout a patient's lifespan. This case highlights the possible ocular complications of disc drusen and the complexity in their treatment because of the risk of visual acuity loss.A ...

ABSTRACT Forty children with pseudopapilledema due to optic disc drusen (31 bilateral, nine unilateral) were studied retrospectively to characterize the early natural history of this condition. The average age at the first examination was 10.2 years (range 3.6 to 19.5 years), and the mean follow-up period was 44 months.

Drusen and the misleading optic disc
Practical Neurology, 2010Optic disc drusen are acellular calcified deposits occurring in small optic discs. They have a prevalence of up to approximately 2% and are bilateral in 75% of cases. Their size and fundosc pic visibility increase with age, and they are commonly responsible for the misdiagnosis of papilloedema by the unwary.
