Unilateral optic disc pallor
Unilateral optic disc pallor is often a sign of previous non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION). NAION is characterized by sudden vision loss due to reduced blood flow to the optic nerve head. Optic disc pallor, visible upon fundus examination, indicates optic nerve atrophy and is a key finding in the aftermath of an acute NAION episode. #OpticDiscPallor #NAION #OpticNeuropathy #VisionLoss #retina #oftalmo #ophthalmology…
