This 4½
year-old cooperative boy was noted by his teacher to have poor vision in the
right eye. His development was normal. Examination revealed right vision of
HM and left vision of 6/5. Refraction was -3.75/-0.50 X 80 in the right eye
and +0.25 in the left eye. Fundscopy revealed right abnormal disc with
peripapillary pigmentary changes; gliosis in the optic disc and
abnormal branching of the retinal vessels.
Right eye appears smaller than the
left eye because the skin crease is lower. The height of the
palpebral fissure and corneal
diameters are similar in both eyes.
Right abnormal disc typical of morning
glory disc.
