Congenital optic nerve anomalies are important, because they are relatively common, some may be mistaken for papiloedema, some may give rise to visual field defects, some are associated with malformations of the central nervous system diseases, congenital and acquired ocular abnormalities. Bilateral optic disc anomalies present in infancy with poor vision and nystagmus, whereas unilateral optic disc anomalies present during the preschool years with sensory esotropia. These anomalies must be known well, because visual prognosis depends on the type of congenital optic disc anomaly.Keywords: Optic nerve, Congenital anomaliesTurkiye Klinikleri J Ophthalmol 2003, 12:53-60
