Diagnostics of optic disk drusen in children [PDF]
Diagnosis of deep optic disc drusen (OND) in children is difficult because they are not visualized ophthalmoscopically and often mimic a picture of stagnation, identifying the wrong tactics diagnostic and therapeutic actions.Materials and Methods ...

Optic Disk Drusen in Children [PDF]
Optic disk drusen occur in 0.4% of children and consist of acellular intracellular and extracellular deposits that often become calcified over time. They are typically buried early in life and generally become superficial, and therefore visible, later in childhood, at the average age of 12 years.

Retinal vascular parameters as AI-driven biomarkers for pulse wave velocity assessment: a telemedicine strategy for cardiovascular risk assessment [PDF]
Background Pulse wave velocity (PWV), known as the gold standard for evaluating arterial stiffness, is limited by device dependence. This study aims to explore the feasibility of retinal parameters to assess PWV based on artificial intelligence (AI ...

Multimodal OCT/OCT-A Risk Stratification in Optic Disc Drusen: Drusen Height, Peripapillary Perfusion, and Visual Field Slope Identify Fast Progressors [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Optic disc drusen (ODD) are deposits in the optic nerve head that can look like true swelling, and in some patients, slowly damage the optic nerve and cause visual field loss.

Evaluation of retinal nerve fiber layer thickness in a patient with bilateral optic disc drusen
Optic disc drusen (ODD) is the accumulations of calcified hyaline-like material within the substance of the optic nerve head. Optic disc drusen, especially if it is bilateral, may mimic the clinical presentation of papilledema.

Imaging Methods in the Diagnosis of Optic Disc Drusen
Optic disc drusen (ODD) are benign congenital anomalies of the optic nerve characterized by calcified hyaline bodies. While superficial drusen can be diagnosed easily during fundus examination, detecting buried drusen requires the use of additional ...
