Optic nerve head cupping in a preterm infant revealing congenital hypothyroidism
We report a case of a male preterm infant with gestational age of 35 weeks evaluated for retinopathy of prematurity. On examination, the infant showed bilateral advanced optic nerve cupping head with cup disc ratio of 0.9. With a suspicion of optic nerve

Optic Nerve Hypoplasia in Infancy [PDF]
Certain features of optic nerve hypoplasia (ONH), its systemic associations and investigation are exclusive to infancy. These include the facility to use cranial ultrasound, difficulties in assessing ocular features and visual function, and neonatal hypoglycaemia and jaundice. Six infants with ONH are presented; cerebral abnormalities were demonstrated

SUNCT and optic nerve hypoplasia [PDF]
SUNCT has been reported in association with abnormalities of the brainstem and pituitary region. We present a patient with a history of left optic nerve hypoplasia, mild hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction, and SUNCT starting in adolescence. SUNCT with an early age of onset may be associated with congenital abnormality of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis.
